Raven and Alan | Northwest Arkansas Enagement Photographer

Oh, these two.

They are the sweetest people. 

I feel like I say that over and over,

but really,

I do have the sweetest clients.

Alan and Raven traveled to NWA so we could do their engagement

photos at Alan's grandmother's house and some property owned

by his family.

Both locations were SO amazingly gorgeous.

I could have shot there forever.

I loved that they wanted to include beer in their session.

John and I love a good beer and so

I'm all about my fellow beer drinkers.

:)

These two actually met while canoeing with mutual friends and were paired

up to be partners,

so we just had to use their canoe in some way. 

Love these.

:)

I can't wait for their wedding later this year!!

Cherron is a wedding and portrait photographer in Northwest Arkansas and would love to take your photos!

S'mores | Northwest Arkansas Lifestyle Family Photographer

When Alicia and I were brainstorming about locations for

their fall family session,

I suggested that we use their own backyard.

They had recently built their house, it is gorgeous,

and they have an amazing backyard.

I also said suggested that we do a 2-part session. 

The first part being a traditional fall family session and

the second part being more lifestyle, capturing them doing

something that they love to do.

I knew that Steve had

spent many hours making a cozy little area at the

edge of their property for gatherings, complete with a fire pit,

so s'mores seemed like the perfect thing to do!

They worked so hard on that fire. 

Poor Steve only ending up with one s'more

because his family ate them all as he fought to keep it alive.

Her quick little hand kept sneaking bits of chocolate.

She adores the camera.

She would light up whenever she realized I had it pointed at her.

Photobombing sisters are the best!!!

I love how she is looking at her oldest, her only boy.

This one is growing up so fast.  She is just a wee bit older than my oldest daughter.

She is such a sweet girl.

I love this one.

Together and enjoying the evening.

And chocolate.

Sweet Baby | Northwest Arkansas Newborn Photographer

Shortly before Christmas I posted on facebook
searching for newborns.
I had decided that I missed documenting families and their
new little babies, so I needed
new babies to photograph for my portfolio.
Rosie, a really talented clothing designer,
answered the call. 

I am so glad she did.

There was a calm but creative energy when I walked into their house.
Fabric swatches, dress forms, and other sewing notions
were scattered about and a sweet four year old with amazing
curls was drawing next to the window. 

I just knew it was going to be a great session.


Baby yawns. 
Seriously.
Can you ever get enough?

These two may be my favorites from the entire session.

Big sis Ezra was not very happy that we wanted photos
of her with her baby sister.
She confessed she was really disappointed
that the baby was actually a baby
and not a kitty. 
:)

I love this family photo!

She's so sweet.

Nothing like a little wild swinging to put a
smile on your face, right?

2014 Review

What a wonderful year!!
It was filled with fantastic families,
gorgeous weddings, and couples in love. 
I also was able to create more
fine art fantasy work, which I love. 

I can't wait to see what 2015 will bring!
Now that my own little ones are all in school,
I will be opening up more weekday
sessions for newborns,
milestone sessions,
and beauty boudoir sessions.
It's going to be great.

Thank you so much, sweet clients,
for choosing me as your photographer.
So many of my families come back each year

and I'm so honored by that. 
I love seeing your families grow!

Cassie + Ryan

Love some sparkle!!

Check out those shoes!!  They were Cassie's version of Cinderella slippers.

Cassie made such a beautiful, lovely bride. 
She does Crossfit, can't you tell.  :)

That bouquet! 

Brooch bouquets are so beautiful.

Heavy, but beautiful. :)

I'm seriously in love with how
in love these two are
with each other.

It's adorable.

Married!!

(PS, the officiant up there is Raven. 

You'll be seeing more of her later when I post her engagement photos

and shoot her May wedding!)

Cassie and her mom spent hours and hours and hours

making all of the pretty decorations for the wedding.

First dance as husband and wife. 

Parent dances.

Party time!

And they lived Happily Ever After.

My Family! | Northwest Arkansas Family Photographer

  You often hear about photographers' families getting the shaft when it comes to having their own portraits taken.  I'm so guilty of this myself.  Our first real family photos with a hired photographer was back in 2012.  I LOVED it.  I'll have to share some of those photos on here soon, too, because they were so amazing. 

One thing I do force ask my family to do often is take group photos using my trusty tripod.  As a result, we have tons of family portraits over the years.  Some of them are casual, some are dressier, and sometimes you can tell that one or two of the kiddos are just SO OVER it, but I don't care.  I have yearly photos of my entire family and that is all that matters to me.  ;) 

I had been telling everyone that yesterday was going to be family photo day for a long time.  I prepped outfits and gave several warnings that it was going to be an early morning since we were taking photos at sunrise.  Even though I got a lot of resistance, the results are a handful of photos I adore.

And yes, one of us is not smiling, but that is pretty much a standard thing for her when we try to get her to go with the flow, so it is very fitting!  :) 

PS, be on the look out for some new posts really soon as I post all the awesomeness
from the fall busy season!
