Dallas, Texas Photographer

I'm the Dallas, Texas photographer behind Simply Great Photography, and I live for documenting love stories. On one of the biggest days of your life, you deserve to have someone there that prioritizes your wants and needs, gives you guidance, goes the extra mile, and makes you 100% confident that your day is being beautifully and intentionally documented. That’s where I come in! As your photographer, I spend more time with you on your wedding day than just about anyone else, so my goal is to minimize your stress and protect your peace at all times from day one.

Dallas, Texas Photographer, Mikaela Greathosue

Trust me, you want someone who hypes you up, touches up your hair, gets you to laugh, and is always watching for the quiet, in between moments on top of the big, planned ones. You want a photographer who goes beyond the basic shot list to get artistic and documentary style shots of the things you didn’t even see or know about. That’s me!



Whether you’re a model or a first timer in front of the camera, I can promise you beautiful photos, but more importantly, I promise you’ll FEEL beautiful and confident.


 

 

with me as your photographer:

Countless Candids  & Perspectives

I love a perfectly posed photo, and we'll get plenty, but the emotions really come in when you let loose and act natural. It's in the unscripted, unplanned interactions with the people you love that I've spent years learning how to read and prepare for. I'm constantly watching and anticipating these special moments because I know some of the best magic happens in the in between.

No Stressing About What To Do Or Where To Go

If you're thinking about posing, lighting, or placement, you're missing the most important part: connecting. I have years of experience with guiding couples on where to go for the best light, what areas look best when, and getting them to interact for sweet, romantic, and fun photos together, so leave all of that to me. Your only job during photos is to be present and have fun. I promise, I've got the rest.

Fun Party Photos

I speak from personal experience when I say you don't want boring reception photos from a mile away. You planned a heck of a party, and now it's time to kick back and enjoy it! As your photographer, I plan to be right there with you, documenting the dancing, the laughter, and the love on the dance floor so you can relive the joy of being a newlywed forever.

Q&A

Why "Simply Great"?

Since my last name is Greathouse, my nickname playing volleyball was Great, and since I run every part of my business personally, it's simply me, so Simply Great!

How many weddings have you shot?

I've shot over 60 weddings as of 2026, and am constantly second shooting for other photographers to keep learning and growing for my own couples!

What do you shoot with?

I shoot with a Canon R6 camera body and a variety of lenses, my favorite of which is the RF 28-70mm because it gives me true colors and creamy backgrounds!

What's your favorite part about being a photographer?

I love seeing people in love, getting to know their story, and helping to document it for them. Seeing the depth of relationships, taking photos of moments that people don't even notice are happening or may not remember without the physical reminder is such a special job to have, and it's one I don't take lightly!
