AUTHENTICITY OVER EVERYTHING
We live in a world where it’s far too easy to make fake look great. It’s why every single photo on this website and especially the stories below are filled with nothing but real photos of real clients. No styled shoots, no gimiicks, no pinterest page inspired work - just the most recent, most raw, and most real moments happening in my life and the lives of our clients lately.
Providence Academy Senior // Lydia
Senior session with Providence Academy senior Lydia.
Remembering 2020. A year that changed everything.
It was a wild year full of road block after road block and yet, we had 22 beautiful couples sneak through the chaos. This is the stories of love in the midst of so much uncertainty. My favorite photos along side theirs and a look back at a few of the things I’ve learned during the most challenging, and exciting year I’ve had as a photographer.
The last wedding of 2020
The last wedding of 2020 was so special. Sure we were out at Stone Chapel which I love, and working along side Taylor from Amanda Reed Weddings… Which I love. But after a year of wild ups and downs, Morgan + Denton were the perfect way to wrap up the year.
A very Boyer Christmas.
A little peak behind the curtain and a few of my favorite moments and traditions from Christmas 2020 in Bentonville, Arkansas.
Devils Den Engagement . Annyssa + Casey
I can’t sit back no more. I have been waiting on this. I will run to you till the death of me.
An Arkansas Razorback Stadium Proposal
Today was a wild day. A last minute call to shoot two of the most beautiful people in the middle of the most beautiful place. I love being a part of an engagement from the moment she says yes and this proposal in the middle of the Arkansas Razorback Stadium was a perfect way for a Hog football player to ask the biggest question to the girl who’s been beside him since they were in high school.
Legacy Acres Wedding . Gretchen + Matt
What is marriage, it’s grace under fire, it’s courage for days, your heart and your hands are just some of God’s mysterious ways.
Top Five Fujifilm Mirrorless Cameras
“Here are the top five cameras that I use personally to create work with in order of how often I use them. Every one of these cameras is obviously from the same manufacturer but let me be super clear, I found a Fujifilm camera in my hands long before they ever even knew who I was and to be blunt - this isn’t a paid relationship. In fact, nobody from the Fujifilm US team even knows I’m writing this post. It’s just a response to the fact that I am asked fairly often these days about my favorite cameras, specs, and reasons behind those opinions and I figured instead of being the photographer who calls everything a trade secret, I’d rather be the professional who shares what I know with people who are like minded so that we can all grow together.”
Not today Covid. Four reasons why weddings are as good as ever.
It turns out not even a global pandemic can stop people from falling in love. Weddings have changed a lot this year, but here’s a list of four things I’ve learned to love about weddings in 2020 despite Covid19. That along side a few of my favorite images from Little Rock, Arkansas and two beautiful people who said “I do” with their closest people present.
Carly + Blake. Northwest Arkansas Engagement Photography.
You can actually feel the breeze in this session. Fall in the Ozarks around Bentonville, Arkansas is my very favorite time to take engagement photos and Carly + Blake are the best kind of couple for a session like this. Waterfalls, wind, and long walks by the lake were perfect for these two.
Jerra + Grant. Arkansas Wedding at Barn at the Springs
It was a little bit of the who’s who of Northwest Arkansas. It was a line up of incredible vendors at the Barn at the Springs. It was Jerra Nalley and Grant Toms but honestly, it didn’t feel like the dream wedding it was. It felt comfortable, simple and yet so elegant. It felt real - and I love the way the photos tell that story.
Tanarah Lux Floral Aria Campain
Floral Aria. The 2021 expression from floral designer Tanarah Lux was an absolute treat to shoot. I’m completely blown away by the way this shoot, and this video by Nathan Willis came together.
Ashley + Nathan. An Osage House Wedding.
In the middle of a totally chaotic year there was a little break in the noise. This wedding just happened to fall in that few days. It was the wedding they dreamed of, on the date they wanted, and it all went off without a hitch. Such a pleasure to have been able to see a little drop of normal and two of the most beautifully in love people enjoy it.
Stone Chapel Fayetteville Wedding. Danielle + Colton
Happy Thanksgiving! A quick blog about two beautiful people, their incredible wedding day, and a few things I’m thankful for this thanksgiving season!
Oklahoma Lakeside Wedding . Tyler + Alec
“I was in bits, I was in pieces, covered in silence. Some how you found me and now you’re patching up the cracks and holes. I see your finger prints on my soul.” - JP Cooper
Sunset in the Ozarks with Laurin and Jose
Two beautiful people painted in beautiful light. A sunset lakeside in the Ozarks near Bentonville, Arkansas. Calm, quiet, intimate moments captured just because they matter.
Hannibal Missouri Wedding . Taylor + Caleb
Are we getting closer to knowing exactly where we belong? Is there ever really a destination to this journey? With you at my side non of that matters, with you my life will always take the right turns.
Traditions Made Your Own . Lane + Tyler
“The way that sky opens up when we touch, the way that you hold me feels so holy.” - Justin Bieber
University of Arkansas Engagement Photos. Paige + Grant
A simply southern engagement session with Paige and Grant. Two of the most beautiful people surrounded by fall leaves at the University of Arkansas. This engagement session got me so excited about the wedding next year and was far too easy to shoot.
An intimate Indian wedding at Sassafrass Springs Winery
What a joy to show up to some place as familiar as Sassafrass Springs and to witness something as familiar as a wedding, but to have it so captivatingly different. Jinal + Ronak are incredible together and every moment of this Indian wedding ceremony was intentional, intimate, and ornate.
