Maggie Ried + John Teed | Little Rock, AR Wedding

Maggie and John are some of my favorite clients, ever! Maggie was always sending me the sweetest notes and texts when we were in the pre-wedding phase and that girl always just makes my day! I love how these two have such genuine love for one another – and it shows.

I have loved working with them – they even did a Christmas shoot with me BEFORE they were engaged when they got their first puppy, Zeus! I know that we will be photographing these two for years to come (I know because Maggie told me in a sweet note she wrote me!) And that makes me SO EXCITED! I love these two and I am so happy I am able to show them off on the blog this evening!

(p.s.- check out her killer shoes – LOVE!)

XO you two!

-Callie

Tara Anglin + Daniel Wright | Hot Springs, AR Wedding

Tara and Daniel – oh my gosh THIS DAY! It was even more beautiful looking back than I remembered. I remember thinking as I was shooting this – everything is going so well and how beautiful everything was.

From both getting ready locations – to the ceremony location at the Hamp Williams Building in Hot Springs, everything looked like it was straight out of a magazine!

& These two are gorgeous right?! And I don’t think I am being biased here (Tara is my big from our sorority in college, a dear friend of mine, and she was a bridesmaid in our wedding, XO!) But really, everything was so amazing for their May wedding. I shouldn’t be surprised though, everything Tara does is so well thought out and planned, there was no way it couldn’t have been gorgeous! SO excited to share these images from their big day! Enjoy!

Lots of love for these two!

Margo + Christian Biggs | Little Rock, AR Wedding

Margo and Christian are two of the kindest and cutest people ever, y’all! They were the most laid back couple and we loved every second that we got to work with them. Christian is in the military and I loved that Margo wanted to carry the American theme throughout their wedding photos. We incorporated the flag into their engagements, her bridals and even their sweet wedding day (check out this EXIT, swooooon – it was perfect!

Their wedding took place at a beautiful church in Little Rock and their reception was held in downtown Little Rock at the Albert Pike Hotel. It was our first time to take photos at Albert Pike and we really loved the elegance of this historic building. Check out their sweet day!

Sayre Upton | Scott, AR Bridals

I know, I know….I say it A LOT — but, I think THESE little photos are up there with my favorite photos of all time. Sayre is STUNNING, right?! And the venue at Marlsgate was pretty amazing. To top it off her bouquet, hair and makeup were perfect. The only drawback was the swarm of misquotes — but hey, we can live with that in exchange for this amazing session! Sayre and Trevor were married last Friday and we could’t wait to get this gorgeous girl up on our blog! I love that Greek Life and SOS at UCA brought us together. I couldn’t have asked for a sweeter bride. She was constantly telling us how thankful she was for Jaison and I; and we feel the same about her and Trevor. We are so excited to see where life takes these two and we genuinely loved every single minute of working with them. Check out her lovely session!

Kaylee Harvison Weatherly | Little Rock, AR Bridals

Kaylee was a stunning southern belle! We have been out of town so much I haven’t had a chance to blog her beautiful bridals since her wedding in late May. I loved this setting for her bridal portraits – the house, the greenery and flowers were all amazing & made a great backdrop for my shots. Just look at that greenery! GORGEOUS!

More to come from their wedding soon! XO!

Braden Vaughn & Julie Paladino | Salus, AR Engagements

I didn’t forget about this session–it is one of my favorites! I am FINALLY catching up on blogging and getting to share some fall engagements! I took these last fall on Julie’s grandfather’s land in Salus, AR – which is located in the Ozark National Forest. We had a great time exploring and we even recreated a few poses of JFK and Jackie Kennedy! I loved that Julie loves black and white photos just as much as we do – so we made sure to give her a good variety of beautiful black and white choices! We have so much love for these two! We can’t wait to share their wedding images, coming soon to the blog!

Payne Harding & Leah Yeager | Little Rock, AR Engagements

When I met with Leah I just loved her! We shot their engagement party back in April and we got to meet all of their friends and family while they celebrated their engagement. She and Payne met when she was working at Cache’ in the River Market. He is the Chef there, and I loved when Leah had the idea to do a few of their photos in the garden on the Harding family farm. We wanted to incorporate a unique element to their photos – and I think that was the perfect touch. The farm was the perfect setting; beautiful greenery, a cute wooden fence, a lake, a dock, and even a precious chapel that we used in the background for a few photos – we were in photographer Heaven with all of the options.

Afterwards we went to an overlook in Little Rock to shoot some images with the city in the background, I am in love with the shots with the Little Rock skyline. This was an early morning session but they didn’t let the early day stop them from rocking each pose and having fun. We love this couple & we can’t wait to capture their wedding day next April! Congrats you two!

Sydney and Matt are precious and this is one of our favorite engagement sessions to date! Jaison shot this all on his own and I am loving his film photos scattered throughout the blog post, he did an amazing job with these (plus they are super adorable, right?!) We can’t wait for their wedding this September at Cold Springs in Little Rock. For now we will be swooning over these engagements!

XOXO!
