Photographing a wedding at The Olana

Every venue has a best hour and a worst one for photographs. We scout yours before the wedding — where the ceremony light falls, where family formals hold up, where the reception needs a little help — so the plan for the day is built on the room itself, not on a guess.

From ranch ceremonies to rooftop city receptions, Dallas weddings blend scale with warmth. We plan around big families, bigger sunsets, and dance floors that deserve coverage until the last song. If we haven’t worked The Olana yet we scout it before your day — light, timing, logistics — so nothing about the venue surprises us on the morning of.

At The Olana the sun sets at 8:38 PM in June and 6:54 PM in October, with golden hour opening around 8:02 PM on a June evening and 7:02 PM in late September. Start a summer ceremony near 5:53 PM and you will still have the good light for portraits; in autumn move it an hour earlier. The full month-by-month table is on our Dallas page.

Questions couples ask about The Olana

Have you photographed a wedding at The Olana?

Not yet — and we say so. We scout The Olana before your wedding: ceremony light, where formals hold up, how long the walk between spaces really takes.

Is there a travel fee for a wedding in Dallas, TX?

No. Elizabeth Scott is a national studio and travel is built into every collection, so a wedding at The Olana costs the same as one across the street from us.

How far in advance should we book The Olana photography?

Most Dallas couples book eight to twelve months out; peak spring and autumn dates go first. A signed agreement and the retainer hold your date, and the balance is due two weeks before the wedding.
