Is there anything that passes faster than your baby’s first year of life? The days are long but the years are short, right? And the years don’t come back. Our itty bitty babies transform before our eyes, one day at a time, until they are no longer itty bitty but fill our hearts just the […]

As a native to Bentonville, I find it wild when I hear that families are coming to NWA to vacation. I have to remind myself that this is not the same town I grew up in. Bentonville has boomed into a destination for art enthusiasts, mountain bikers, and families alike. When Crystal reached out to […]
This was my first time getting to photograph at The Reserve at Osage House. Let me tell you, it way surpassed the hype. Hailey and Brad put together a stellar team of vendors, including Corrie Childers Photography. I always love the opportunity to Second Shoot for Corrie, and this wedding was no exception. All of […]

I love what we have transformed the word elopement to mean. It used to mean running away without telling anyone. When we were getting married, Cory thought eloping meant just going to the courthouse. And while that’s not necessarily untrue, eloping has evolved to mean a small, intimate ceremony which may or may not include […]
If you had asked me 7 years ago when I first bought a camera if I wanted to photograph families, maternity, and newborn, I would have told you absolutely not. But so much has changed in that 7 years. Moving past the “newlywed” stage and into the family-of-my-own stage has given me the confidence and […]

I’ve said it before, and I’ll shout it from the rooftops every chance I get – the most important aspect of a wedding is the couple and their love. I knew from the moment I met Emily that her and Derrick’s Sassafras Springs Vineyard wedding would be exactly the embodiment of this motto. Emily was […]
The first time I met Caitlin and Jacob was at Heroes Coffee as we discussed what it would be like if they hired Shipman Photography for their Ballroom At I Street wedding in Bentonville, AR. I remember being so excited about their dreams for the day, but even more so about the ease of simply […]
Walking into 21C Museum Hotel Bentonville’s event space for Jessica and Greg’s wedding was a jaw-dropping experience. I had asked Jessica what her wedding colors were and was confused but intrigued when she told me “all of them.” I didn’t fully understand until I walked in and saw the stunning backdrop Silks-A-Bloom had created for […]
