Eric + Holly – Little Rock Air Force Base Engagement Portraits

Posted: April 7th, 2010 | 5 Comments »

Eric and Holly are one great couple. I loved the way they interact. You can see the love and care shared between them. We met up at the Little Rock Air Force Bace, Eric is serving our country in the Air Force and has tons of knowledge of these airplanes set up around the base. He actually is in charge of taking care of the planes that are set up for display. We walked around shooting here and there, while Eric told Holly and I all about the planes and treasures around the base. I had no idea that there was a time capsule set up there from the 60′s or something. Pretty cool! Here are a few of my favorites! Enjoy!

Ryan & Lauren Modern Engagement Photos Arkansas

Posted: November 10th, 2009 | 2 Comments »

I first met Lauren at a wedding 3 years ago. It was her sister’s wedding. She was a bridesmaid and I was the videographer. I also met my girlfriend of 3 years at that wedding. It was a busy day for me. Who would have figured that Lauren would soon be getting married as well, and I would have a unique opportunity to take part in her family’s celebration again. There is one more sister in her family, the youngest. She’s not engaged yet.  Third times the charm? Haha. Ryan and Lauren are a wonderful couple, constantly making each other laugh and playing around. The engagement session went by so fast. I was snapping away like crazy. I didn’t want to miss anything. The explosive laughter, the spontaneous kisses, the unexpected shoulder seat. They defiantly kept me on my toes. I can’t wait for the wedding in January! A lot has changed in my career since I first met Lauren three years ago, but one thing’s the same. I’m still having a lot of fun capturing couples in love.  Enjoy the pics everyone and leave me some love. Congrats Lauren & Ryan!

Brent & Rachel Engagement Portraits Downtown Little Rock

Posted: October 6th, 2009 | 2 Comments »

My good friends Brent and Rachel are getting married! I am honored that Rachel asked me to be their wedding photographer. I am a little sad that because I will be taking the photos on their big day, I won’t get to be in the wedding party. I guess that’s just the nature of the game. Really though, I am very happy for them both. I have known Brent for quite a while now, and Rachel is perfect for him. They make a great couple and make my job really easy. We met up at the Riverfront Park in Little Rock. The weather was perfect for this e-session. It was right before the cold front moved in, but it was still overcast. Downtown Little Rock is great place to take portraits. There’s so many interesting textures and areas it’s almost unlimited for ideas. Here are just a few of some of my personal favorite photos from the session. I used some of the Totally Rad Actions for photoshop on these. I downloaded the demo pack that came with just a few actions. I really like the look, I had to turn the opacity down on most of them though. I didn’t want it to be to much for the photos. Just enough to add to them. Let me know what you guys think. Give me some feedback. Brent and Rach, congrats you guys. I hope you like your photos. I can’t wait until the wedding.

Oh yeah, I love this one because I caught then laughing and being themselves, but I also noticed that the sign says reserved parking for “data file” storage. I thought that was weird.

I rode to Memphis, TN this weekend on my motorcycle and met up this really great couple who recently became engaged. Ben and Erin are getting married in Florida. We met at the Memphis Botanic Garden. This is a really cool place. If you’re in the area, I recommend checking it out. They were a lot of fun and the weather could not have been more perfect this weekend. Congrats you guys, enjoy the photos.
