Katie and Michael’s engagement session in Downtown Bentonville exactly portrays why no two engagements sessions will ever look alike. No matter if the setting is the same, the “poses” are the same, heck even the outfits could be the same. As long as the couple is different, the photos will be undeniably different. My biggest […]

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 […]

The winter isn’t most people’s first thought when they are picking a time for their engagement photos. But the winter can hold some magic that other seasons just can’t touch. From the neutral palette of nature that doesn’t distract or compete for a photo’s attention, to the solitude of your surroundings as most people aren’t […]
When we walked into The Ravington for Nichole and Chris’s wedding, there was just this air of peace. The guys were just hanging out in the groom’s area waiting to be told what to do, and the girls were ready with hair and makeup minus the finishing touches for Nichole. Only one other time have […]
When Rose contacted me about photographing her elopement, there was so much up in the air. No idea how C*VID protocols would effect everything. The date changed a few times in compliance with regulations and Chapel proceedings. But in the end everything came together in the most beautiful and raw way. Family was able to […]

What. A. Year. I know the word “blessed” can be over used, but man oh man do I feel it. I will never underestimate the trust and faith that is placed in me when asked to photograph a wedding. I get to be a part of the tiny, intimate moments, the grand celebrations, the pauses […]
Choosing to get married during the fall in Arkansas means gorgeous fall colors every direction you look, but it also means planning around the Razorback football schedule and hoping that game time doesn’t interfere with ceremony time. For Whitney and Brett, it meant watching a thrilling match up between Arkansas and Ole Miss with their […]
I always say there’s nothing better than fall in Arkansas. The temperature is perfect, the colors are gorgeous, and the only thing that could make it better is if the days were longer. Northwest Arkansas really shows out for the fall and makes wedding season that much better. Few venues showcase the fall colors better […]
