Patrick + Courtney – El Dorado, Arkansas Wedding Photography

Posted: July 19th, 2010 | Author: Eli | Filed under: weddings | Tags: , , | No Comments »

Patrick and Courtney decided to tie the knot at the First United Methodist Church in El Dorado, Arkansas. They also wanted to set up a first look before the ceremony to save some time with family photos after the ceremony. I always love when couples decide to do a first look. They’re always some of my favorite photos. Patrick anxiously awaited his bride as she walked down the isle to see him for the first time with her wedding gown. These special moments are the reason I love my job. If I can capture an image that shows half the love that they felt in that moment, I feel like I’ve done a good job. Stay tuned for some more of my favorite photos from there wedding day on the blog Wednesday! Enjoy!

As promised, here is the second part of Lindsay and Brian’s wedding day! The reception was located at the Moca Room in the Ozark Bath House in Hot Springs. This is also the Hot Springs Museum of Contemporary Art located right there on bath row. Pretty cool location for a wedding reception and right now some of Ansel Adams’ early photographs are on display, I was really excited about that part. Enjoy!

Lindsay + Brian – Hot Springs Arkansas Wedding Part 1

Posted: July 12th, 2010 | Author: Eli | Filed under: weddings | Tags: , , , , | 3 Comments »

Lindsay and Brian decided to get married in the wonderful Anthony Chapel tucked away in the Hot Springs Garvan Gardens. I was very thankful to be a part of their big day. The wedding was beautiful. The best part of the ceremony was right before the paster was giving permission for Brian to kiss his bride, Lindsay was so excited/anxious she was literally jumping at the chance to kiss her new husband.  Here are a few of my favorite images from their wedding day. This is part one, stay tuned for part two – the reception – soon! Enjoy and after you look through these photos go jump up and kiss your significant other!  Happy Monday!

Eric & Holly – Modern Wedding Portraits

Posted: June 16th, 2010 | Author: Eli | Filed under: bridals, portraits, weddings | Tags: , , , | 1 Comment »

I could probably talk for hours about how much I love this set of portraits, the light was gorgeous and Eric & Holly were super awesome subjects. They let me drag them outside in the heat and into a grassy field during the middle of their reception. It’s not every day that I get that opportunity, but as you can see, when the time is right, the time is right. I’ll let the photos do the rest of the talking, haha. Enjoy!
The rest of Eric and Holly’s wedding will be bogged on Friday! Stay tuned!

Josh and Alex got married last weekend at the Albert Pike Hotel, downtown Little Rock. I had such a great time at their wedding. I was happy to have my good friend and fellow wedding photographer Allen Hyslip with me. Josh and Alex are such a great couple. Alex was radiating with love and excitement! I love me some happy brides! Josh had some of the coolest dudes for groomsman ever. These guys were having a blast the whole time. Here are a couple of my favorites from the first part of the day. Stay tuned for the second half of the blog tomorrow. Enjoy!

Josh gave Alex some pearls before the wedding. He sent his best man up to deliver her gift. I guess he knows how to do it! She lit right up when she saw them!

After exchanging gifts, they read the love letters that they both wrote to each other.
