About Me

My photo
I am a Contemporary Photographer specializing in Children, Families, Weddings, Seniors and Maternity.

Welcome to my Blog!

I am a photographer specializing in photo journalistic natural light photography. I truly fall in love with my subjects, whether it be the soft breathing of a newborn, the mischievous smile of a toddler, or the way a new bride and groom hold each other like it's the most natural thing in the world. I find myself seeing the beauty in every person I photograph, I believe it's my job to find what truly makes them sparkle and capture that. I am passionate about photography and I hope to share my passion with you.

glow

I really feel like that's what a pregnant woman does, I know it sounds cliche but really... they glow. Lauren and Justin are so excited for their sweet little girl to get here, I can already feel how crazy about her they are... I know they are so eager to meet her and that's a beautiful thing. You know what else is beautiful? Lauren... really this girl is just so lovely, it was a joy photographing her. :)

Happy Girl

I haven't had internet for the past WEEK, but now I have it back and I am just tickled pink. I honestly don't know how people survive without it, and I have an iPhone so I had internet access and I was still a mess! I mean if I didn't have my iPhone I would love lost my mind... I would have moved into the neighbors or something so I could have access to their internet whenever I needed it. I would have just hid out under their computer desk and said "oh don't mind me!" I was determined to make my iphone do everything my desktop does, I even managed to blog on here using it, but then I accidentally deleted it, using a phone is just not as easy as a computer. In the blog I pretty much groaned and moaned about all that was going wrong, but I figure I accidentally deleted it for a reason, and it's probably good my "poor poor me" blog is lost somewhere out there in the internet universe. So now I'm back with a new and improved positive attitude. I have a LOT of catching up to do but here is pic to tide over. I know mom and dad worked HARD to get this bed outside for this shot so I wanted them to see one asap

homies

This is the uber talented Scott Hammock. He is an amazing singer and songwriter. I had such a great time shooting him, we became instant friends and within about 5 minutes of meeting I was bossing him around and he was making fun of me (that's when I know we're homies). He needed some shots for his new album cover and I had fab time dragging him all over the place shooting, I had lots of ideas and he was up for whatever which was great for me. He's going to be touring in Florida for a couple of months this summer so if you live there be sure to check him out! I got a free live acoustic concert for one while we were shooting and even got to hear some funny stories about when he hung out with Willie Nelson at Toby Keith's party (I think I got the names right, I am working on improving my country musician knowledge). Anyway I was blown away by how good he is, he has a fantastic voice and he sang me this new song he's working on and I know everyone is going to love it. Here are some from his shoot, I'll be interested to see which one he chooses for the album cover!

rain rain...

This past weekends trip didn't go exactly as planned because of the rain but since my promo video shoot was postponed that left me a little more time to take lots of photo's. I'll share more very soon but here is one to tide you over. :) Isn't he just the sweetest little honey ever??? He's my nephew so I may be a little biased but I think anyone with eyes would agree with me. :) Also I've officially opened up booking for my next Texarkana trip! I will be there June 5-7 so e-mail me quick to reserve your spot!
