You cannot garnish wages in Texas except for child support.
Texas is a very debtor oriented state. They could have a $500k home and the creditor cannot touch it (homestead).

I'd like to inquire how civil judgements are paid in Texas?
I can't take your income, without your consent? I can't liquidate a home?
Any other property available? Or do I just assume the check is in the mail?

It sounds like that photographer likely never gets the business back to what it was before nor will she see much, if any, of the $1mil.
But the couple likely never pays anywhere near the $1mil, so other than public shame, what did they really lose?
