The Olana was built to resemble a Chateau in Paris, giving it an old world European feel. The grand architecture and sprawling lawns make it a great choice for those wanting a destination wedding feel without leaving Texas.

Extravagant Beauty

Top 3 Reasons I Love Weddings at The Olana:

01.

Many hidden gems at The Olana invite guests to explore and wander into every room there is to find. A bowling alley, an indoor basketball court, a Chanel closet, an indoor garden, a plate gallery, and a tea room are just a few of the spaces.

It invites exploration

02.

There are so many photo backdrops that I have to ask my couples which ones they want to prioritize (or we would spend the entire day trying to include them all). The regal staircase? The romantic fireplace? Reflections by the indoor pool? The gardens? The front of the mansion? Bet.

The great Photo backgrounds are limitless

Excited to start forever with the one you love?

To put it simply, I’m here to deliver a worry-free wedding photography experience that captures unforgettable moments from your once-in-a-lifetime celebration at The Olana in Hickory Creek

If you’re getting married in the DFW TX area, I may be the right photographer for you if:

  • You're detail-oriented and obsessed with the idea of bringing the outdoors in. 
  • You're over the moon giddy about getting to celebrate with all your favorite people who mean the world to you and having them all under one roof at the same time.
  • You dream of a wedding bursting with florals - from a stunning floral chandelier to the flowers lining the aisle walkway.
  • You want authentic, joyful, and true to you wedding photos that show love and laughter.
  • You need all the gorgeous detail photos, but also prioritize the important connections with your families being documented.


You've seen too many wedding photos that look overly filtered or have strange sepia tones. You want your photos to look natural and vibrant, capturing the real beauty of the day and the stunning estate. The colors of the flowers, the dresses – everything should look as it does in real life.

You want true to life color editing

He isn't exactly thrilled about posing for photos. You need a photographer who can make him feel relaxed and actually enjoy the process. A wedding photographer who can joke around, keep things light-hearted, and maybe even make him forget the camera is there.

You need someone fun, who can put your fiance at ease

You also want your wedding party to have a blast on your wedding day. You have such a fun group of friends, and you want your photos to reflect that energy and joy. Posed photos are great, but you really want those candid-feeling moments where everyone is laughing, dancing, and just having a good time.

you want a Photographer that embraces spontaneity

She never fails to make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera with her bubbly personality. She had unique ideas for photos that we would not have thought of otherwise which turned out absolutely stunning. She made sure to capture the traditionally important moments and went above and beyond to capture the smaller moments often overlooked. Her photos are full of such raw emotion which goes to show how talented and thoughtful she is. She also does an amazing job at capturing every detail of the wedding such as flat lays, florals, the venue, etc. We could not recommend Mylah enough and would most definitely work with her again.

“Mylah was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process"

Anna G.

She produces the most beautiful, flattering, and natural photos of you and your loved ones! I truly cannot recommend Mylah enough. From our engagement session in NYC to my bridal portraits to our wedding day, she made taking photos FUN. My husband and I are not naturals in front of a camera, but she made us feel so comfortable that we look like our best selves in all the photos she took. Perhaps most importantly, she made sure that wedding day photos went as seamlessly as possible and she organized the portraits to be incredibly efficient. Tldr: hire Mylah for your wedding. I promise you won’t regret it.

"Mylah isn’t just a wedding photographer – she is your hype woman, your stylist, and your behind-the-scenes mediator all in one."

Haley R.

She has a magical way of making you feel immediately comfortable. She is creative and curious and always looking for the best shot, but you're so distracted by how much fun she is to be around that you forget you're being photographed. She is energetic, positive, kind, and effortlessly brings out your silly side! Working with her feels like hanging out with an old friend. And the photos that result are pure gold.

“HIRE MYLAH NOW! She is simply the best! In every way!”

Sarah S.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mylah!! On our wedding day, she was an absolute dream to work with. She made everything so easy and never put any pressure on us. Her relaxed and friendly demeanor made the day even more special. The photos she captured are absolutely stunning! Every single picture turned out better than we could have ever imagined. Her personality is truly so kind and wonderful!—she has a way of making everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. We are so grateful for her incredible talent and dedication. She even surprised us by delivering photos ahead of schedule and they were absolutely beautiful!!!! If you're looking for a photographer who is not only professional but also a joy to be around you can’t get any better than Mylah!! She is simply the best!

"She truly went above and beyond for us"

Cassidy P.

She has an incredible talent for capturing our personalities and love. Mylah's innate ability to see beyond the lens is phenomenal. Her photos are stunning. Each picture beautifully transcends us to every special moment captured on the wedding day. Our wedding was an all-day affair, spanning two different locations. Mylah and her team, with their meticulous attention to detail, managed to capture every moment, ensuring no memory was left behind. I would hire Mylah a million times over. Mylah was a pleasure and went above and beyond on our wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone getting married! So, stop searching because you have finally found the photographer you want to capture your special day with. I promise you!

"Hiring Mylah was one of the best decisions we made! She is so talented"

Amanda C.

My now husband and I knew we loved Mylah’s beautiful work after she was the photographer for his twin sister’s wedding in 2020. When we got engaged in 2022, I told him we need to lock in a wedding date asap but only if Mylah is available! Mylah is the best of the best. She is communicative all throughout your engagement and even post wedding too! She is so helpful when it comes to the details of engagement photos and wedding photos. She becomes another MOH and honestly becomes like family. There wasn’t a moment on our wedding day that she wasn’t right there and she captured some really special moments for us that could have easily been missed. We will always recommend Mylah to any of our friends looking for a wedding photographer and can’t wait to use her for all of our big moments in the future. We love you Mylah!

"Mylah is the best of the best."

Bre P.

Hiring Mylah to photograph our wedding was by far the best decision we made. From our very first meeting we instantly felt connected to her. She took the time to get to know us, our story and vision for our big day. Mylah radiates energy and effortlessly creates a fun atmosphere that makes you feel confident and natural in front of the camera. We had two engagement sessions and a bridal boudoir shoot with Mylah because we couldn’t get enough of her work! By the time our wedding came around we knew Mylah on a personal level and really felt like a friend was capturing our wedding day! Her attention to detail and love for photography shows in every single photo. We truly feel like Mylah captured the day perfectly! Seriously, no detail or moment was left out. 

"Even our family can’t stop talking about how beautiful the photos are and how sweet Mylah is"
