We have known about this location for years, but never ventured down to the bottom. On our anniversary we took a little hike to the …

Kassi + Matt | North Little Rock Engagements
WOW! That is the first thing I have to say about this session. Kassi and Matt are to die for! We actually did this session on two different days in two parts because the first attempt we got caught in the middle of a rainstorm! What are the odds?! This was the first time this has happened to us in six years and it was kind of crazy! So the first part that you will see in the post is from part one and then the remaining two outfits are part two! We managed to snap a few amazing shots before the rain came in on day one and those shots are some of my favorites from all of their photos. The greenery is so vivid and pops right off the screen. We are so happy to be working with these two – they’re so genuine and fun! Can’t wait for Kassi’s bridals this fall and their sweet wedding next April! We love you two already!

Katelyn + Josh | Little Rock Engagements
We couldn’t be happier to share these city engagement photos! These images are some of my favorites we have taken lately. I love the way that fuchsia dress pops with the greenery in the background – GORGEOUS! And Katelyn’s long flowing hair is amazing! These two compliment each other so well. They have a masquerade mask because they are doing a masquerade theme for their October 31st wedding! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
So, we started off on the Junction Bridge and is was super windy, but it actually made for a nice natural blow with Katelyn’s hair. Then we made our way around Little Rock.
These two will tie the knot at the same place Jaison and I did almost two years ago, The Marriott in Little Rock (formerly The Peabody). You can see it in a few shots actually! We had so much fun with you two!
Can’t wait for October!

Paige + Matt | Bentonville Engagements
We decided to change up our scenery a bit and head to Northwest Arkansas for this sweet couple’s engagement session! Paige is from Conway and Matt is from Louisiana – and the two of them together couldn’t be more perfect. I asked them to share their love story with me so I can submit these photos to Arkansas Bride, and this is what Matt said:
>>>>>>>>>>Four years ago I met a girl who was out of my league. It wasn’t even a question. She had dark hair, deep brown eyes, and a kind heart (Yes, you can get that last part from just looking at her, I promise). She was way too good for me. I introduced myself and thought that would be the end of it, and it was, for the next two years at least.
She ended up moving to the same complex I lived in for my senior year of undergrad at the UofA. I hoped I would get achance to know her and at least be friends. In the back of my mind, I started hoping that someday I might even have a chance to date her, but I still thought those odds were slim to none. We had some overlaps in our friend groups and pretty soon I found myself gravitating towards her every chance I got. I didn’t realize I had feelings for her until the night she wore men’s sweatpants from Wal-Mart and trekked through the fresh snow with me to get a bite to eat, and I had the sudden awareness that there was no one I would rather be with. That feeling hasn’t left me.
Some time after that she realized she had the same feeling. That someday I was waiting for had finally arrived. I proposed to Paige this January, and I can’t wait to spend my life with her. So here’s to someday, and every day after that.<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Paige – you have one sweet finance. We love it when a GROOM isn’t afraid to show his true feelings out loud. My heart just melts looking back at these images! And I can’t tell you how much I adore Paige, she is has such a kind personality and I feel like I know her so well already.
I can’t wait for these two to get married – August can’t get here soon enough!

Sam + Jessica | Little Rock Engagements
Sam and Jessica were a blast to photograph! Their city session took place in Little Rock a few weeks ago. These two met at the gym & since fitness is super important to them both, they wanted to incorporate that part of their life. We LOVED some of these fun poses toward the end! We were cracking up as Jess tried to lift Sam up, HILARIOUS!! I couldn’t help but include that photo in this post, because it truly encompasses the whole session – it was seriously so fun! We can not wait to photograph their big day at Enchanted Evening! Jessica is breathtaking and they were both so easy to photograph. Enjoy this city session!

Will & Katie | Engaged
So I am pretty obsessed with this session! It couldn’t have went more perfectly. This was the aftermath of all the snow and ice we had and it made for some of the coolest photos that I think we have ever taken. The ones of the ice-cycles hanging under the bridge on the vines – oh.my.word.
Katie and Will are super easy to work with and photograph – so that was a huge plus! We met Katie through the NLR Athletic Club and we have known Will since high school. We are blessed to be able to photograph their wedding this fall and can’t wait to share more of their magic!
Lots of love,
Callie
Kerry + Maddie | North Little Rock Engagements
One of our favorite engagement sessions of all time! Kerry & Maddie are so photogenic and were the easiest to work with! Before all this rain hit we were so fortunate to have a beautiful sunny day with gorgeous blue skies! We can’t wait to shoot your wedding next month in April! Ah, to always be this lucky!
Lots of love,
Callie
Lauren + Cody | Castle on Stagecoach Engagements
We have been dying to share this session! Thank God for the snow days so we can catch up on blogging and share this sweet love with you. Lauren & Cody will tie the knot at the Castle on Stagecoach this June. We thought it would be special to photograph their engagements here as well as their wedding day photos. This redheaded sweetheart and her beau are the cutest couple! We hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Huge thanks to Walter at the Castle for letting us use the property for this session! Lots of love!

Lauren & Connor | Engagements
These two are precious in plaid! (Tried to be catchy there, ha!) Seriously though, Lauren and Connor are the sweetest! And oh so cute! I have loved working with them. I shot these while they are visiting for the holidays from Nashville, TN. I am so happy with how these turned out and hope you love as well!

Shelby + Payton | Little Rock Engagement
I am so thankful that Shelby was placed in my life freshman year of college through Alpha Tau. Shelby is my pledge sister and from the very start has been one of the refreshingly honest, most real people that I know. I am so happy that she found Payton, they are seriously perfect for each other! Their session in Little Rock could not have been sweeter! Shelby and Payton are currently in a long-distance relationship and I don’t know how they do it! But it seems to work well for them! We can’t wait to shoot Shelby’s bridals and their wedding next September at Alda’s Magnolia Hill in Little Rock! We love you two and are thankful for friends like y’all!
Lots of love,
Callie 
Cody + Ashliegh | Engagements
Wow!
That is all I have to say about this session is, WOW! We first photographed Ashliegh and Cody when Cody proposed in Conway and I was blown away with that session, then came this one. They were SO easy to work with and so comfortable & it shows! I also love when our clients become friends. Since this shoot we had a little double date and then Cody was our model for Jaison’s clown/Halloween shoot (it was not as pretty as these haha) but Cody did an awesome job! It always is so flattering when other photographers ask us to take their photos. Ashliegh is a photographer herself. We were blown away when she asked us to do their wedding photography! We hope you enjoy this engagement session as much as we do, Jaison and I are obsessed!
Lots of love! 
Richard + Allie | Engagements
Allie and I went to high school at North Little Rock & we also went to UCA together! I met with her and her mom a few months back about doing her & Richard’s wedding and I was pumped! And I got to find out her mom is a fellow Alpha Tau! They chose Two River’s Park for their engagements & as always this location NEVER disappoints! We loved their laid back personalities and sweet spirits! Although pictures aren’t Richard’s favorite thing to do, he did AWESOME!! 😉 We can not wait to shoot her bridals and their wedding day! Much love!

Chris & Kim | Conway Engagement
This was seriously the most unique session ever! When Kim & Chris asked to use Jaison’s dads truck we were thrilled (and so was …
Melissa & Randy | Cabot Engagement
Melissa and Randy won our free session form an Instagram contest a few months back! (See we really do pick REAL winners haha!) Not like those gimmick contests some companies host. Boy did we get lucky! Randy, you picked a BEAUTIFUL bride! These two did so perfect, even though the wind was CRAZY this day! We hope their wedding at Maumelle Park on the River is perfect!
Congrats y’all!
Sarah & James | Dickey-Stephens Park Engagement
Sarah and James had the idea to use Dickey-Stephens Park for their photos since James is a coach & huge baseball fan! We of course loved the idea! We also used one of our favorite Little Rock walking bridges in downtown LR. It’s always fun photographing friends! I have known Sarah since 2011 when I began managing the Maumelle location of Advanced SunSystems, where she worked! We can’t wait to shoot her bridals and their wedding! Enjoy this gorgeous couple!
Ashley & Tripp | Little Rock Engagement
Ashley and Tripp were the winners of an Instagram contest we drew for a few months back! We could not have drew a sweeter couple from our bucket. These were taken at Alda’s Magnolia Hill in Little Rock off Stagecoach, which is one of our favorite wedding venues! Miss Alda is the sweetest! We hoped to capture their southern fairytale in their engagement photos. We hope these two have an amazing wedding in Louisiana!
Enjoy!
Emily & Jordan | Lonoke Engagement
We are so happy to work with Emily again! We did her senior pictures from UCA earlier this year and now she is ENGAGED! Jordan is quite the catch & we are so happy to share their sweet country themed session! We took these in Lonoke at her family’s home. We love the classic feel to these photos! You two are precious and we cannot wait to shoot your wedding next year!
Enjoy!
Matthew & Torie | Little Rock Engagement
Have we mentioned that we love shooting fellow UCA Bears? Especially ones that are friends of our friends! These two were referred to us by some very dear friends of ours, Erica and Chase Watson. Torie caught the bouquet last June at “Cherica’s” wedding & little did we know that we would shoot their wedding in May 2015! We had such a good time with you two in Little Rock & we can not wait to spend your wedding day capturing your love story!
Kayla & Josh | Conway Engagement
I am so thankful to have met Kayla and Josh through SOS (Student Orientation Staff) at UCA. They are two peas in a pod. They’re just so cool to be around and so full of energy! Their shoot down by the Arkansas River could not have been more original. They brought their hammocks, Greek Shirts and SOS shirts because they wanted their shoot to be completely unique and personalized, and it truly was one of a kind. Their hammock shots are some of my favorite photographs that we have ever taken. To top off the day Kayla and Josh knew how cool we thought their hammocks were that they later surprised us with one of our own. Now Jaison and I have a new favorite past-time. We are so bummed that we will be crusin’ (to Jamaica) during their wedding but luckily they have some awesome photographers shooting their big day, who happen to be some of our dearest friends, Kayla and Chris of KB McElmurry. We are so happy for Josh and Kayla and wish these two all the best in their marriage! We love you guys!

Kayla & Bo | Heber Springs Engagement
Kayla has been one of my dearest friends since we were pledging Alpha Tau in 2010. She has a heart of gold. I am so happy that she has met someone who has a heart as big as hers. Bo is truly the perfect match for Kayla. It has been an honor as your friend to shoot your engagement photos & be able to show the world just how much you two love one another! We are so excited to attend and photograph your wedding! January 17, 2015 here we come!
Ps: super pumped to share my birthday with you two! I can’t wait to celebrate with both of you!
Love,
Callie
