Happy Fall Everyone. The new Bike Arkansas Magazine recently hit the shelves, stands and displays around here and it's chock-full of valuable information on everything from enjoying the local trails, to gear suggestions and probably most importantly, the upcoming International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) World Summit. Today, I'm sharing a few of my favorite images from the recent shoots for this edition. Hopefully, they inspire you to get out and ride.

Cheers.

Today on the blog, I'm excited to share a few images from John and Kelsey's wedding at the Botanical Garden of the Ozarks. It was a pleasure to spend the day with these two, mostly because they both have such great personalities. But the mild, semi-fall weather didn't hurt either. 

ongrats you two!

I can't say enough about the Alex and Lauren. Their deep love for each other, their appreciation for their family and friends and their sincere hospitality towards me was admirable and inspiring. Their wedding in Chicago's Botanic Garden happened a couple weeks ago and today, I'm excited to share a few of my favorite images. Thank you both for welcoming me into your celebration, for taking the time to introduce me to so many of your dear family and friends, and for driving me around because I had no idea my drivers license had expired. :)

Cheers. 

Say hello to Franklin and Lauren. Franklin happens to be my nephew and he is also a soon-to-be pilot in the United States Air Force. Lauren is also in United States Air Force, training to be in the "intelligence sector." (That's all I can say about that). I had the opportunity to hang out with them in Kansas City this past weekend for their engagement photos. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy! 

Anyone who hasn't been living under a large amount of Arkansas bedrock over the last few years will tell you that the sport of mountain biking is literally taking off in our little corner of the state. And in case you've ever been riding the trails and wondered to yourself...

Today on the blog, a few images from a recent wedding celebration starring Matt & Kat :) 

Happy Monday.

Today on the blog, a few images from Collin and Brett's wedding last weekend. Enjoy :) 

A few years back, I had the opportunity to travel to Memphis for a commercial photography project with Saddle Creek Orthodontics and a few weeks ago, I made a return visit. Much of my time there was centered around creating updated office environment and staff imagery but I also spent a good chunk of time creating imagery for decorating their new office in Collierville. Here are a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

I recently had the opportunity to document a few of the truly gifted doctors, nurses and caretakers at Washington Regional Medical Center. The resulting images were used in their 2016 report to the community, which was designed and produced by the Fayetteville design firm, DOXA. Here are a few of my favorite images from the project. Enjoy. 

Congratulations and Best Wishes to Brian and Caroline on their beautiful wedding this past weekend. Here are a few images from their Kansas City Celebration. Enjoy! 

Today on the blog, I'm excited to share a few images from Dakota and Katherine's beautiful wedding last weekend. Happy Friday everyone!

In the middle of the intense summer heat, hanging out with Collin and Brett for their engagement photos was a breath of fresh air. Our drive time was filled with conversations about life, music and conspiracy theories. And we managed to find some super interesting locations explore and photograph with. Here's a few of my favorite images from our evening together. Enjoy!

Today on the blog, say hello to Bryan and Kiara. Their recent wedding was a lot of fun to be a part of and unlike typical weddings, this couple set aside some time the day after the wedding to focus on creating images of them together. Here's a few of my favorites. Enjoy. 

The Buffalo River and the surrounding area are some of my favorite parts of the state to explore and to spend time. And in case you were wondering...

The best part about doing bridal portraits after your wedding is that your husband gets to go along with you. And it's even better, when...

Say hello to Jeffery and Shelby. We hung out yesterday for their engagement photos and as you can see from the above picture...

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. 

I recently had the privilege of creating some images for the newest issue of Block, Street & Building, a magazine showcasing the progress of New Urbanism in Arkansas. In case you haven't noticed, there's a lot of stuff going on around here. :) Click here to read the full issue and enjoy the images. 

I was honored and excited to be a part of the third issue of Bike Arkansas Magazine, featuring some of the area's hippest and youngest riders. Here's a few of my favorite images from the issue. Enjoy. 

Congratulations to Derek and Anne on their beautiful wedding this past weekend. Today on the blog, I'm excited to share a few of my favorite images from the celebration. It was a sincere honor and privilege to meet you both and to share this special day with you. Thanks for having me and thanks to Stephen Ironside for the referral.
