Three Brothers | NWA Portrait Photographer

I’m back in the country after a trip to China on assignment, and I’m slowly getting back in the game of “normal” life. More on that later. For now, here are some images from a shoot I did before Christmas. These guys’ uncle bought them a session as a ... Continue Reading

Renee’s Senior Shoot | NWA Senior Portrait P ...

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting Renee’s senior portraits. Renee had a bad experience and mix up with another photographer and didn’t end up with a single print to call her own…so she became one of my 2012 Senior Reps for Bentonville High Sch ... Continue Reading

Baby Belly #1 | NWA Maternity Photographer

A few weeks ago, I did my first maternity shoot on a local first-time-to-be-expecting mother. Each time I dive into a new genre of photography, I’m both humbled and excited. There are small nuances that differentiate each type of photography — newborns, families, seni ... Continue Reading

Ann’s Newborn Shoot | NWA Newborn Photograph ...

I recently had the privilege of taking some newborn photos of little Ann in Fayetteville. Even though she would not go to sleep even once (no matter the bribe), I think I ended up with at least a few keepers.   It’s pretty tough to do newborn shoots when the baby won ... Continue Reading

Baby Awesome | NWA Newborn Photographer

A couple of weeks ago, I had took my first shot at newborn photography for a lovely couple in Pea Ridge. Quite different from what I’m used to, but it wasn’t too bad! It was short and sweet, and baby Awesome did a great job. At just a couple of weeks old, Awesome held ... Continue Reading

Avril’s Bridal | NWA Bridal Photographer

Today is Avril's big day, so of course I get to release her bridal images to you! While Avril normally isn't the "big white dress" type, she handled it well and knew how to smile when she needed to most. In fact, she didn't even want to do a bridal shoot in the first place. Continue Reading

Reagan & Reese | NWA Children Photographer

At the end of August, I photographed Reagan and Reese, two energetic 10 month old twin girls. Even though they lasted about 15 minutes, I got more shots than they bargained for! With matching tutus, hair bows, and toothless grins, these girls were a joy to work with.     ... Continue Reading

Engagement: Mary Beth & Doug

A couple of weeks ago, I spent an hour or so roaming Fayetteville with Mary Beth and Doug for some engagement portraits. Wandering up and down Dickson St. to find the best nooks and crannies for evening photos was nice, and the weather was just perfect. Sadly, the sun went down ... Continue Reading

Last Friday, after a few days of being snowed in, cabin fever got the best of us. Darby dressed up and Mark and Dana of Stone Ridge Photographers and I went out and took some photos of her in the woods around the house.

Portrait Session: Kelly & Friends

Last week, I went out to Lake Fayetteville to do some group shots of some friends from high school (well, some before then). The snow held off, the rain held off, yet, sadly, the pile of dog “mess” I stepped in did not hold off. But, it was a short, sweet session, and ... Continue Reading

Help-Portrait NWA 2010

Some days I don’t get much done. Some days I get a lot done. And some days I do something I don’t usually do, but for a good reason. This past Saturday was one of those days. I spent Saturday morning and afternoon at a Help-Portrait location in Fayetteville. Help-Por ... Continue Reading

I came across this post by Eric Kim, an urban photographer from L.A., recounting 100 things that he’s learned about photography. As I have not made such a list, I thought I’d repost his here and add my personal opinions about each one. This way, you get a good, and ho ... Continue Reading

Wedding: Helen & Lindi

Last weekend Darby and I drove to Talequah, OK, to shoot our friends Lindi and Helen’s wedding. We met Helen in our freshman year, and Lindi shortly thereafter. They finally got hitched last weekend, and it was a great time. Yes, it’s true, and I’ll just say it& ... Continue Reading

Wedding: Andrea & Elliot

Last Saturday I shot a little bit of Andrea and Elliot’s wedding in Bentonville with Stone Ridge Photographers. I was there for the ceremony and for only the beginning of the reception, but it was a big crowd and quite a fancy room at the Embassy Suites to host them–i ... Continue Reading

Let the Mobile Uploads Begin

So, it finally happened. I finally got an iPhone (4). I’ve seen some quite impressive mobile photos, and I’m going to take a stab at it. The best camera is the one you have with you, right? I’m still learning how to use it, but I’ve uploaded a few to Flick ... Continue Reading

Wedding: Jenny & Marty

In late May (yes, before Heather and Kyle’s wedding), Darby and I shot a small ceremony in Gulley Park in Fayetteville for Mark and Dana of Stone Ridge Photographers because they had another wedding to shoot that day. It was small, short, and sweet, and the overcast day mad ... Continue Reading

Project XXX Follow Up

Project XXX has now been taken down at the Anne Kittrell Gallery. After phoning the Provost to get it extended a week and to complain about the paper on the windows, they finally took it down because the next artist needed a week to set up (sounds fishy to me…). All in all, ... Continue Reading
