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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
