windy (little rock, AR engagement photographer)

 I met up with this gorgeous couple on Saturday. It was a little hit or miss with the weather all day Saturday, but we decided to go for it and I am so glad we did. It was windy, which they totally worked, and we ended up having amazing light and unbelievable skies.

 With the wind came the cooler temperatures, pretty sure the temp dropped 10-15 degrees in our few hours together, but it made for some great cuddling shots. We even toughed it out for some after dark time...totally worth it!

I am so digging the low light photos at the moment.

session album

 When I reworked my website I added a few new products. The one I am most excited about is this session album. It is a 7x7 paperback book that features up to 30 of the photos from your session. This is a fun little book that is printed similarly to a paperback story book. This is not a replacement to a true album, it is really just a fun way to remember our time together.

 The photos can be in several different layouts to highlight your session.

 I love the thought of a family i work with every year having a stack of these adorable little books.

breathe (central arkansas engagement photographer)

 it is an all together crazy time of year. family, work and all kinds of fun. i love it, but sometimes i feel like i have to remind myself to take a minute to breathe. 

on saturday night i met up with this adorable couple (i love them!) and we enjoyed a stroll around town and some beautiful weather.

 i got to hear all about their big day and the excitement of planning the future.

 i got to see the way they look at each other.

 and i got to have my breath taken away.

as i look at the picture below i have to remind myself to take a deep breath and enjoy this wonderful thing i get to do.

i LOVE this picture!!!

i heart scenic b&w

hello monday.

hoping everyone had a great thanksgiving. ours was full of family, love, food and lots of pictures. yesterday we had our pictures taken with my whole family and then i had the pleasure of taking pics of my brothers family...i will have more to share soon, but i wanted to start the week off with this one and an entry for i heart faces scenic black and white week.

thankful

 I am so thankful that I have the privileged of doing something I love and getting to work with so many amazing families. A big thanks to all of you who have supported me in this wonderful journey.

Happy Thanksgiving!

i heart paper

When I opened my google reader this morning and saw that this week on i heart faces the category is paper I knew exactly what I had to do. I know I have put this photo on my blog before, but it is one of my favorite family pics ever. There are lots of things I love about it...clothes, color, light, i love these people....but my favorite part is that when I pulled these books out as a prop for the pictures they all jumped right in, no faking it, and I think you can see it all over their faces. I took another book pics with the Chinos for their Fall pictures, you can see it here on Alison's header.

new york

I am crazy about my parents! It certainly doesn't hurt their case that they just took me along on a trip to New York, but it really is just because they are pretty wonderful...and so darn cute. We spent four days last week together and I managed to grab these two pics of their cuteness. It was an amazing trip and I could not believe how beautiful the leaves still were in Central Park.

I am thankful for great parents and yellow leaves.

antiques (little rock, ar family photographer)

 I am heading out of town this morning, a fun little getaway with my parents. I will be off until Friday so forgive me for no more blogging this week and if it takes me a while to answer emails or phone calls.

I wanted to leave you with a little peak at this fun family. I caught up with them last Thursday. Kerri is a local blogger who I knew through Twitter and her blog, but had never met. She picked the spot, an antique store in the Heights, and I was in love from the moment I pulled up. Great family. Great Location.

Have a great week!

pretty lady (little rock, ar wedding photographer)

this sweet bride and friend has been so patient with me while waiting for more of a look at her big day.

it was a beautiful wedding with perfect little details (i would have stolen her shoes if they were my size and the bridesmaids had amazing handmade earrings and hairpieces).

i love sisters!

and all the color and texture.

the big moment.

the gorgeous couple

and all their people.

it was a great day, thanks for letting me be there with you.

sarah (north little rock senior photographer)

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting up with this beautiful senior. Our time together was so fun as we talked through all the exciting things that a senior year holds and big plans for the coming year.

Other than some crazy wind we had beautiful weather to work with and Sarah had some great clothing changes, i love that about a senior session.

love this wall.

love that light.

big thanks to Sarah and her mom for spending their day off school with me.
