Eric + Holly - Little Rock Air Force Base Engagement Portraits

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!

Bill + Sam - Junkyard Engagement Photography

I've been to a few junkyards in the past looking for various parts, but this is the first time I've ever brought a couple to photograph. I have to say, salvage yards make for some pretty good portrait locations. Yeah, there are a few hazards and you might want to update your tetanus shot before we go, but if you're anything like my friends Bill and Sam, you'd love the idea. Back in February when they booked with me, they said they wanted something different. Honestly this was a really fun e-session, I had a blast climbing on top of the cars and getting stuck. Thanks for helping me down, Bill. : ) Can't wait until their wedding in May!

Scott + Karlyn - Searcy Portrait Photographer

Last Thursday I had an opportunity to spend a few hours with Scott and Karlyn. Scott is finishing up school here in Searcy at Harding University. He's darn close to being finished and he and Karlyn are both Arizona bound. I too share their love for the West, but I'm quite happy with my home in Arkansas for now. Karlyn is an artist, check out her blog here. Karlyn and Scott actually got married in Arizona back in 08', but they wanted some photos to remember there time spent together here at school. We spent a couple hours walking around their old stomping grounds taking photos for memories sake. I'm so glad Karlyn contacted me, because I had a blast on this shoot, and we made great photos and I have some new friends! Also, this is the first blog post that I've done with a title. Leave me some love and let me know what you guys think about that. Enjoy!

Geoff & Olivia - Arizona Portrait Photography

I wrapping up my week with my brother, Geoff. I stayed at his sweet pad for 6 days, a little mini vacation before spending the next week on the Vegas strip for WPPI. I had a super great relaxing week with my bro. He showed me the beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, and valleys of this Arizona desert landscape. I have to say that this really is some beautiful county out West. On Friday I asked Geoff and his girlfriend, Olivia, if they would let me take some portraits of them. I've taken a lot of landscape photos while I've been here, but I'm really a people photographer. I was beginning to get the portrait itch. This landscape was just begging me to add some people into the photograph. We went right before twilight, and kept shooting after the sun dropped. Enjoy!

Kele & Jonathan Luigs - Arkansas Wedding Part 1

So I've decided to break up Kele & Jonathan's wedding into two parts because I had so many photos that I wanted to share. I didn't want to overload you guys with too many in one blog post, so come back tomorrow for part two. When I first shot Jonathan & Kele's engagement photos I knew there was a possibility that Jonathan might get drafted to the NFL, but when I found out that he was picked by the Cincinnati Bengals I was super excited for them both! Here are a few of my favorites from their wedding.

Kele's Bridal Portraits Marlsgate Arkansas Photographer

Today I am photographing Kele and Jonathan's wedding. I have just been dying to show off Kele's bridal portraits that we took back in January, but I had to wait until now so that certain eyes wouldn't see. Kele is a beautiful bride and when she told me that she wanted to go to Marlsgate Plantation to shoot her portraits, I knew that these bridals would be something else. A little bit of high fashion/ lifestyle portraits, at least that's the feeling I got from them anyways. I'll be sharing their wedding soon, stay tuned. Enjoy!
