Little Bit of -A- Birthday (Old Mill in North Little Rock, Arkansas)

I had the privilege of shooting little A's annual birthday picture this year. Mom decided to forego the usual department store backdrop and I think we all thoroughly enjoyed this afternoon. Mom has made it a point of always spending the entire day with -A- every year on her birthday and, most importantly, getting a picture with the number of years in it. Guess how old we are this year?


Just a sneak peek. There's more to come, Mom, I promise! And for you other parents, having your child(ren)'s portraits done on their birthday is a great idea.

-A- just cracked me up. She is anything but shy. By the end of the session she was telling me where to stand to take her picture! Happy Birthday -A-!!

Wedding of Daniel & Monica (McEwen, Tennessee)

This weekend I had the privilege of shooting the wedding of my cousin, Daniel, and his new bride, Monica. It was an exciting weekend to say the least. The night of the rehearsal we had a blizzard. The snow was coming down so hard and the wind was so bad it was a white-out as my dad and I drove home. What normally would take about 15 minutes took over an hour. When I awoke the morning of the wedding everything was covered in about 10 inches of snow not counting the much higher drifts. Needless to say, we don't get those kind of snowstorms in Tennessee very often much less in March. But all went well the day of the wedding. The snow added an extra special element to the day. Here are a few sneak peeks. More images to come a little later so stay tuned!

Daniel-Monica, it was an absolute joy to document your special day. I'm so glad you allowed me the honor.




This next image is my favorite so far. That's my grandfather in the background looking at his great-grandson who was the ringbearer.

You got snow?

We got snow! For the first time all winter we got about 1-1/2 inches of the white stuff. I know all you people up North are laughing hysterically, but we enjoyed it for the brief time it lasted. And, yes, the first picture is from my driveway at the top of a veeerrry steep hill. It rivaled any Olympic ski slope for a while till it all melted.

A New Look....

Website updates are coming soon so stay tuned! A new look and updated pictures are on the menu. I'm working hard to get it online as soon as I can.

This coming weekend I'll be heading home to Tennessee to shoot the wedding of my cousin, Daniel, and his bride-to-be, Monica. Just talked to Monica this evening and she's so excited. We'll be doing an engagement/pre-wedding session on Friday morning at my grandparents' farm, the rehearsal Friday night, and then the wedding and reception on Saturday night. So in a week or so new pictures should be on the blog.

Lots of excitement going on so check back often for updates!
