Arkansas wedding photography at Moss Mountain Farm wedding near Little Rock, Arkansas

It is always breathtaking to be on the property of Moss Mountain Farm near Little Rock, Arkansas. This is the home site of famous garden designer P. Allen Smith, and it makes a wonderful backdrop for a wedding. And not just a spring wedding, but even in the fall, like for Mallory and Josh’s wedding in October 2022.

I lowered my wedding photography prices

What? Yep. I lowered the pricing on my wedding packages a bit. I can’t charge beginner’s wages in my 25th year, however I realize that my many years of experience doesn’t automatically make your budget increase. I have always tried to be the Chick-Fil-A of wedding photography. A great product at a good value. Not cheap, but not too expensive either. Just nicely attainable. Contact me for my pricing!

Osage House Wedding in Northwest Arkansas

 

A big thanks to Charity and Chris Moore for selecting me as their wedding photographer! Their October 30, 2020 wedding at Osage House went off without a hitch. I was very honored to capture their engagement photos, bridal portraits, as well as their entire wedding day. The florals from Vase and Vine was absolutely perfect, and Charity’s dress from Tesori Bridal was absolutely stunning. This was the first outdoor wedding at the new area just constructed at Osage House wedding venue in Cave Springs, Arkansas.

Still here!!

What a year 2020 has been so far! I haven’t been posting a whole lot on social media just due to being busy shooting! I’ve actually never stopped photographing weddings this year, but the ones I’ve been photographing have been smaller in size, for obvious reasons. I recently moved into my own place in the Fayetteville, Arkansas area, which is an area I love to be in! I’m starting to get inquiries for bigger weddings for this coming fall as well as all of 2021. In fact, my 2021 calendar is booking up nicely with wedding photography! Are you planning a wedding in Arkansas? Or anywhere? (Who doesn’t love to travel)?! I would love to talk with you about your wedding plans and find out if my style of wedding photography would fit in well with your wedding day!

About being timeless...

I was going through a computer hard drive from around 10 years ago, and pulled a few wedding, bridal and engagement photos. The purpose of this is to show that these pictures don't look dated, at all. They could have been taken 10 years ago, today, or 10 years from now. That's my photography style: classic and timeless. Yes, still artistic, but not dated. I don't shoot for what's trendy on Instagram today; rather I shoot for what will still be wonderful memories 10, 20, 30 years from now. That thinking is what has kept me in business for over 20 years now. I thought it was interesting to see these photos and how relevant they still are today!

This weekend I had the honor of photographing a beautiful Russian model in a gorgeous Hayley Paige wedding dress called “Elke" from Tesori Bridal in Fayetteville, Arkansas. This was photographed on-location at a really cool brand new event space and photography rental option in downtown Fayetteville called Likewise. I can’t wait to see what all becomes of this space!

Mena, Arkansas wedding of Hope and Greg

One of the fun things about being a wedding photographer in Arkansas is getting to document weddings in small towns all over the state. Recently I was hired to travel to Mena, Arkansas for Hope and Greg’s wedding. I had photographed Greg’s sister’s wedding many years ago, so it was fun to see some familiar faces! They got ready and held their ceremony at their new home they literally just moved into like a week or two prior. It seems like weddings are always centered around other crazy times in people’s lives. The house worked perfect for photography because they haven’t yet hung any pictures or placed any decor items around the home. Everywhere in the house was a bright and neutral grey photographic backdrop for us to use. It gave the pictures a very modern yet classic vibe, which is totally my style of wedding photography.

Their ceremony was outdoor around their pool, which made for some really cool reflections in the photos. After the ceremony, we drove “up the mountain” to the lodge at Queen Wilhelmina State Park. On the way up to the lodge, I noticed how beautiful the light was at the various scenic overlooks, so I texted the bride and said “hey, let’s stop for some pictures.” I know she was eager to get to the reception, but I was glad she was trusting enough to follow my lead on that. We all got out and did a quick bride and groom session, then continued on up the mountain to the reception for delicious food, cake and some fun dancing by the DJs at 385 events.
