Say hello to Andy and Treva. As you'll see from the following engagement photos, they are a lot of fun to be around. Armed with their two dogs and some homemade deck chairs that Andy had made, we set out for an evening of adventures and photographs. Here are a few of our favorites.
Happy Friday!

Lately { In Images }
For the past 2 weeks, I've been traveling around Arkansas and into Oklahoma for a big commercial photography shoot. I've been shooting a lot and hardly spending any time on the computer whatsoever. So today, I pulled some images from my recent travels to share here on the blog. Happy Weekend!
Ben & Amanda { A Proposal } | Northwest Arkansas Engagement Photography
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". :)
Jenna McCollum | Bentonville Highschool Senior
Say hello to Jenna McCollum. Jenna is a Senior at Bentonville High school. Although she has a very relaxed class schedule this semester, she stays busy by playing cello in the school orchestra and dancing on the school's dance team. We managed to dodge the rain showers and brave the mosquitoes to create some beautiful senior portraits for her this week. Here's a few of our favorites. Enjoy!

Michael & Michelle | Northwest Arkansas Wedding Photography
This past weekend, we had the honor and privilege of being a part of, what turned out to be one of our favorite weddings ever. Michael and Michelle have become good friends over the course of the past year. Their impeccable taste in music, their love for outlandish shenanigans and their overall awesome personalities make them quite the good match for each other. We couldn’t be happier for these two as they start their new life together and we wish them all the best for the adventures and shenanigans ahead. Cheers, you two.
Boston Mountain Solid Waste District | Northwest Arkansas Commercial Photography
The Boston Mountain Solid Waste District (BMSWD) is one of eight regional districts in Arkansas designed to provide environmentally sound and economically feasible solid waste management. BMSWD recently went through a re-branding phase, courtesy of Brittany Phillips Design and we were hired to create imagery for their new website and marketing materials. The website called for landscape imagery of the Boston Mountains and also, images of the types of recyclables that the BMSWD handles. If you've ever wondered what type of things you could dispose of at BMSWD or if you just like the Boston Mountains, feel free to peruse the following images.

Congratulations to Ben and Ryan on their VERY recent engagement. Late last week, we helped Ben plan the proposal and then, hung out behind a trailer and some shrubbery to capture the moments. Here are few images from the evening. Enjoy.
Lately { in images }
It's been a crazy couple of weeks here at the studio. And as it relates to blogging frequency, that can mean one of two things. Either we blog a lot or we hardly blog at all. Lately, it's been the latter. We have been out and about a little bit, doing some photography work. But a majority of our time has been spent shooting video, editing video, working on a few graphic design projects and continuing our game of catch up on wedding related stuff. So we decided to share some "behind the scenes" images from the last couple of weeks. Happy Monday!
Keith & Dominique | Northwest Arkansas Wedding Photography
Today, we offer our sincerest congratulations and well-wishes to Keith and Dominique. Their small, intimate wedding was last Saturday and in spite of what appeared to be a dreary forecast, the evening was perfect, the temperature pleasant and the smiles, everywhere. Here's a few of our favorite images from the day. Enjoy.
The Well {FuturePast} | Northwest Arkansas Music Photography
Recently, a few area churches joined together to host a community-wide worship experience. The event, named "The Well", was launched a few years ago as a quarterly event at Fellowship Bible Church and most recently, was transitioned into a collaboration of area churches and church leaders. We were asked to document the evening, which was made up of live music, selected poetry readings, prayer and communion. Here are a few of our favorite images. Enjoy.
Piggy Paint | Northwest Arkansas Commercial Photography
We always love working with the talented folks at Piggy Paint. We recently collaborated with them to create some lifestyle images for their promotional use. Here's a few of our favorites.

The Crumbs / KUAF Interview & Performance | Northwest Arkansas Videography
Awhile back, we had the opportunity to photograph The Crumbs at one of their shows in Ft. Smith Arkansas. A few weeks ago, we were invited back to capture their radio interview and studio performance for the program Ozarks at Large at the KUAF radio station in Fayetteville. This video contains excerpts from their interview as well as a few songs from their studio performance. Be sure to tune in to KUAF for the interview and performance in its entirety this Friday, September 5th. For more information on upcoming performances, visit their website.
Fayetteville Public Library | Northwest Arkansas Commercial Photography
For the past few weeks, we have had the continued honor and privilege of working with the Fayetteville Public Library to create images for their 2015 marketing materials. The library continues to be one of the most state-of-the-art facilities in the state, providing access to resources, information, entertainment, culture and space. It is always fun to see the variety of people hanging out at the library on our days there. Here are a few favorite images from recent weeks. Enjoy.
Frisco Festival Cycling Events | Northwest Arkansas Commercial Photography
It's no secret that we are a bike-friendly business. Cycling is not only a huge part of our lives here at the studio, but it is also a huge part of our community. The regional area of Northwest Arkansas is in the process of being connected with trails allowing for ease of bicycle commuting and in our little downtown area, a very well-known trail design company has been hard at work developing Lake Atalanta and building some killer mountain biking trails. Living in such close proximity to the studio, I frequently ride my bike to work and in the middle of the day when I need a breath of fresh air, I'll ride around our downtown area or home for lunch. Being a bike-friendly business and a supporter of local events also means that we are happy to volunteer our time, especially when it involves people and bicycles. This past weekend, the 30th annual Frisco Festival held two cycling events and we were around to photograph them both. Here's a few of our favorite images. Enjoy.
Millcreek Software | Northwest Arkansas Commercial Photography
For years, Kelly Miller of Millcreek Software had his company office just around the corner from our studio here in downtown Rogers. That was until a newly renovated building came up for sale and Kelly jumped at the chance to purchase. He now shares this beautiful, historic building with Doc4 Design and Field Agent, a company Kelly helped found and now serves as the Chief Technology Officer. With plans to launch a new website, Kelly invited us to create some images of the new space and also, collaboration between team members. Here's a few of our favorite images. Enjoy.
