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.

Rain & Shine. Celebrating the unexpected. REAL ARKANSAS WEDDING.
So as you scroll through this wedding with me and look at the way Jong cries on Hannah’s way down the aisle remember that this wasn’t the aisle that she was expecting to walk down. When you see Hannah’s face light up during the first look realize that this first look was a total surprise to Jong and her joy is coming from seeing him surprised at her standing right in front of him… IT WONT BE PERFECT. And that’s ok. These photos represent moments of love on a special day and the more authentic they can be - the more valuable they become.

Turning Small Weddings into Dream Weddings // Kelsey + Zack
Just because a wedding is going to be small doesn't mean it can't be incredible. We’ve created five tips alongside a real dream mini-wedding and the story of Kelsey + Zack
Better Wedding Photography / Casey + Emerson
It’s all about the people. Casey + Emerson had the most beautiful, intimate, small wedding at a glass chapel in Bella Vista, Arkansas followed by a reception at Lake Point Restaurant. Better wedding photography starts with more intentional photographs and this day was filled with them.
Barn at Greers Ferry Lake Wedding // Angel + Chris
The most intentional wedding for two of the most in love people in one of the most beautiful places with the most incredible view. This one needs to be seen!
Heather + Kipp // Hunt Chapel Wedding Photographer
Every little detail mattered. Hunt Chapel in Rogers, Arkansas is one of the most beautiful glass chapels in the Northwest Arkansas area and Heather + Kipp’s wedding was an elegant, intentional, perfect day spent inside these beautiful walls.
Nikki + Caleb / McKinney Texas Photographer
Take a left, a right, another left, a few more rights and somehow you just end up at this giant Tuscan Villa in the middle of Texas. Nikki + Caleb’s McKinney wedding was nothing short of a dream and even the back story to how I ended up at this amazing day with them is kind of interesting.
Finding Self Worth and Falling in Love. Merritt + Brady
It’s probably a weird way to start a blog post but it’s oddly relevant with where I’m at in my life right now. You see while I’m still shooting weddings for the most beautiful couples just like Merritt and Brady I’m also coaching photographers from all over the world. There’s this dichotomy in my life at the moment. Wandering around old downtown Rogers, Arkansas like I did yesterday with these two with the conversations from my podcast call or the marketing strategies of a photographer on the other side of the country still floating around in my head. I spent years trying to figure out how I was going to take over the world, call it a young man’s dilemma but something happened to me just at the very beginning of the pandemic. I realized that though I’m often skeptical of the truth, I’m so quick to believe a lie. Negative self talk is something that has become so ingrained in our society these days that instead of simply discussing it - we all avoid it all together. We hide behind humility instead of admitting to being self deprecating and perhaps more often then not we feel unwanted, unuseful, unloved, unworthy and then wander through life trying to find the answers to unlock our joy.

As a wedding photographer I can tell you that the way I see these days has changed so much over the last few years, click in to read why.

Joshua Tree National Park Project || Fujifilm GFX100s || More Than Full Frame
Fujifilm sent us all the way to California to play in the desert. This session was this wild collaboration of trying to pull together a sunrise in Joshua Tree while also managing two different couple’s sessions at the same time. From Palm Springs into the middle of Joshua tree with the Fujifilm GFX100s this was absolutely a wild experience.
