wedding & lifestyle photography


Kendra and Steven are two of the kindest souls. This was a bride that started out as a friend, but we grew even closer as we worked together. She is fun, always laughing and has the sweetest spirit. Steven matches her just the same! From eating ice cream during their engagement photos all the way to the big day – we had a blast. We couldn’t be more blessed to call these two our friends! Cheers!
XO!

It’s finally here…our road-trip photos! In June and July, Jaison and I took three weeks to explore the great outdoors. We traveled West and had …

SWOON ALERT!! We are dying to finally share this! We have been waiting because we got the confirmation that it was going to be featured …

We wanted to share some of our vacation pics with you! We had a blast on this cruise with my parents and sister! This was taken on all expired film and Jaison took most of these! I took the digital copies which we are still in the process of editing! We visited Jamaica, Mexico and the Grand Cayman Islands! It was one of the best vacations ever! We hope you enjoy a little glimpse into our visit to paradise!

p.s. If anyone was wondering, the film used was Kodak Ektachrome, all medium format!


Kim is top 1 the coolest woman I know! Her fiancé, Chris is one lucky guy. We can’t wait to shoot their engagements and wedding next May! When I knew that 501 Life Magazine (a publication that I am a contributor for) was doing a “wheels” edition for the month of September, I knew I had to suggest Kim to the owner! I couldn’t have been more pleased with the way the photos turned out. Taken right in the heart of North Little Rock, this little path was the perfect place! We tried some fun lighting for this one. We hope we captured Kim’s fun, daring personality!
Love her so much!
P.S.
All the black and white photos were shot on film (Ilford Delta 400)!! We love film!

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!

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

What a BEAUTIFUL baby girl. We of course were thrilled when Anna Belle’s mom, Jennifer, asked us to do some modeling shots of Anna Belle. These are going to be submitted to a few agencies in hopes of getting this cutie some modeling gigs. This girl will give you baby fever for sure! I shot all the digital photos and Jaison shot film.
Enjoy!
Love, Callie

Evan, Reese, & Izzy are on the blog, again!!! As you know, we absolutely love shooting film! I asked Evan and Reese if they cared if I shot a roll of film during their family session and they did not care at all! I could not be more happy with the way these photos turned out!

For all you photography nerds out there, these photos were shot with a Nikon F100 on Kodak Porta 400.



This was the first wedding that I actually got to take a lot of 35mm and medium format film photos. I absolutely love the timeless, classic look of film, especially medium format. The look you get with digital photos is just not the same as with film photos.
I hope you enjoy the film photos from Hannah & Justin’s wedding and rehearsal!

It’s been a little while since my last post so I thought I would share a few medium format film photos from my last family …

So, I finally got my black and white medium format film back from being developed and it turned out pretty well. I was using my …

Last week I got quite the surprise at work. A client brought in a Mamiya rz67 and two Pentax 645s. He had owned his own photography business before becoming a preacher. He told me I could have the cameras as long as I used them!
Well of course I am going to use them! I went that day and bought film.
This past Sunday, Callie and I got to do a wonderful engagement session for Olivia & Braxton. I asked them if it would be alright if I took some photos with film. They both agreed and said they could not wait to see the photos! Well, I finally have my first roll of 120 back from being developed and I LOVE it!!
These are the photos from the Mamiya rz67.
