We recently had the opportunity to experience Crystal Bridge’s Pintura Festival, cameras in-hand. Of course, carrying around our cameras didn’t leave our hands free to enjoy the delicious looking street corn they were serving. But sometimes as a commercial photographer, those are the breaks. We did however get to witness…(click to read more)

It's that time of year again; The time of year where I try to recap an entire year's worth of photography work in a couple of blog posts and by doing so, post WAY too many photos. First up, a look back at my year in Lifestyle and Commercial Photographs. Enjoy. 

Congratulations and Best Wishes to Dwayne & Rose. Their beautiful, intimate and charming wedding celebration was held last weekend in a beautiful little corner of Downtown Bentonville Arkansas. I was honored to spend the evening with this incredible couple along with their family and friends and today, I'm sharing a few of my favorite photos here on the blog. Thanks for having me, you two. 

It was a weekend full of celebration for Roman and Kailey and I was honored to be a part of it. Many sincere thank you's to them for having me, their wonderful families for making me feel at home, their energetic friends for making the day even more memorable, and the best wedding planner in the area, Melissa Holmes, for pulling it altogether. Also, special thanks to Crystal Bridges Museum staff for being so accommodating and last but CERTAINLY not least, my good friend and fellow photographer, Jessika Layton for helping me document their special day. Enjoy the photos. 

Today on the blog, I'm excited to be sharing images from this year's commercial photography projects. I have developed a strong love for telling stories of products, people, environments and companies through imagery and over the years, I've had the privilege of working on some very interesting projects. 2015 was certainly no exception. Many many thanks to the clients who made these images possible. 

Congratulations to Andrew and Jillian on their wedding this past weekend. Here's a few images from their celebration. Enjoy!

Today, we offer our sincerest congratulations and well-wishes to Ben and Amanda. Yesterday, Ben took Amanda for a little stroll around Crystal Bridges. She thought they were meeting some friends there. Little did she know that the "friends rendezvous" was just a ploy to get her to a scenic part of the trails surrounding the museum so that Ben could ask her a very important question. 

This is the second proposal we've had the privilege of documenting and let me tell you, it's a FUN experience. I don't know if it's all the sneaking around and hiding in the bushes, the location scouting, the logistical planning, or just the overwhelming anticipation of witnessing such a heartfelt and memorable moment...whatever it is, it's awesome. And today, I'm excited to share this memorable moment in images. Special thanks to the rain for holding off long enough for Ben to stick to "Plan A"...especially since he didn't quite have a "Plan B". :)

Today on the blog: Bridal portraits w/ the beautiful Lisa Siler. Enjoy :)
