Happy October everyone. Tis the season to have outdoor weddings without sweating through your dress clothes. This past weekend, I had the honor and privilege of celebrating with Matt & Brittany. Here's a few of my favorite images from the day. Congrats you guys!

Say hello to David & Sarah May, also known as The Purple Kite. David is a former touring Nashville session guitarist who is now...

Congratulations and Best Wishes to Dallas and Madison. They were recently married on the most beautiful of Saturdays at Orchard's Park in Bentonville Arkansas. Amid laughs, tears of joy and the good company of family and friends, they exchanged rings and vows they had written themselves. Here's a few images from their celebration. Enjoy. 

Say hello to Brian, Caroline and their dog Louie. Caroline is one of my favorite people on earth because she's my niece. And Brian? Well, he's pretty cool too :) And as most of you know, Kansas City is one of my favorite places on earth to visit. So it worked out perfectly for us to meet up this past weekend for their engagement photos. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy.  

Say hello to Alex Dixon, a senior at Bentonville High School. She's smart, and she has the busy schedule of AP and College classes to prove it. But what you'll probably never guess about her, is that she LOVES hardcore rap music. On a recent evening, I had the opportunity to hang out with Alex and her family and create some senior portraits. Here are a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

If you've raced mountain bikes at all, you've probably heard of the Drummond Family. And if you've seen their names in the race results, chances are they were towards the top if not on it. That's because for this family, mountain biking is their sport. And when I say "sport", I mean that in the truest sense of the word. Everything from schedules, to nutrition, to daily exercise routine revolves around their chosen sport of mountain biking. What started out as a family activity quickly turned into a hobby and then, a passion. I was fortunate enough to spend a recent Saturday with them creating images for the upcoming issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

It's always a pleasure to spend time at the Fayetteville Public Library. The architecture and the environment is always inspiring and the workers and patrons alike are always super friendly. Here's a few photos from a recent shoot. Enjoy. 

Say hello to Jonathan & Amber Perrodin. Together, they are Perrodin Supply Co. And for the record, they are also responsible for The Little Craft Show and #TeamSpringdale. They work out of a beautifully rough workspace that they call, "The Hatchery". Located in the downtown Springdale area, the Perrodins spend their days creating beautiful things. Amber has a background in Printmaking and also enjoys creating mixed media pieces while Jonathan enjoys woodworking and makes canvases and wooden decor. 

I had the opportunity to hang out with Jonathan and Amber in their workspace, camera in-hand. Here are a few images from our morning together. Look for them in the upcoming issue of Arkansas Made Magazine. 

Say hello to the Phat Tire Racing Team. But make it quick, because they'll be long gone before you get to the double ll's. These riders are the real deal. They train together, race together, hang out and even volunteer together. And while they train on all of the nearby trials, their home turf is the Slaughter Pen Mountain Bike trails of Bentonville Arkansas. This particular trail system is certified as a Silver Level Ride Center by the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA), making it a destination for out-of-towners and local riders alike. I recently had the opportunity to hang out with some of the riders that make up the Phat Tire Racing Team and I managed to get them to slow down enough for a few photos. Look for the complete story in the upcoming issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine. Cheers. 

I recently had the opportunity to hang out at the American Native Goods workspace for an editorial assignment. Founded by brothers Clayton and Bobby Chamberlain, American Native Goods focuses on quality, handmade products consisting of leather, denim and a healthy dose of American Patriotism. Clayton was on-hand to show me the space and walk me through the process. Here's a few images from the shoot. You can view the full story in the upcoming issue of Arkansas Made Magazine. Enjoy. 

Say hello to Erin O'Brien, a class of 2016 student at Bentonville High School. I recently had the opportunity to hang out with Erin and her mom, Michele while creating some senior portraits.  Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

"Busy, busy, busy." But VERY "Thankful, thankful, thankful." Here's a few images from our recent shoots. Cheers to the weekend. 

A few weeks back, I had the opportunity to hang out with Matt & Brittany and create some engagement photos for them. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy!

Say hello to the Hansen Family. As you can see, they reside in the beautiful town of Siloam Springs and they are extremely happy about it. A few weeks ago, I had the distinct privilege of hanging out with them, camera in-hand. I can't put put this family into words because any words I use would not do them justice. But I love them, I really do. Here's a few images from our evening together. Enjoy. 

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph the Annual Rogers Cycling Festival. Had I been in better shape, I probably would've...

Say hello to Tim and Shanna. They were married last week in Tulsa and after months of emailing back and forth, I had the distinct privilege of meeting them in person for the first time and also, documenting their beautiful wedding day.

'We’re all a little weird. And life is weird. And when we find someone
whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into
mutual weirdness and call it love.' 

Say hello to Sara George. Even though she's only 16 years old, she recently completed here entire high school curriculum and is now ready to tackle college. To celebrate, we loaded up in the Novomobile, hit the road and created some senior portraits with her along the way. Here's a few of our favorites. Enjoy!

It's no secret that Northwest Arkansas is home to some delicious craft beer. And in the upcoming issue of...

Congratulations and Best Wishes to Ben & Ryan. These two were married last Sunday at the beautiful Hunt Chapel and their reception at The Grand immediately followed. I had a wonderful time celebrating with them and today, I'm excited to share a few photos from their perfect day. Enjoy!
