Hi everyone, this is Tyler! I’ve taken over Dale’s blog today to talk about … myself. Or rather, my last maternity shoot. A boudoir maternity shoot. First, though, let’s talk about boudoir in general. If you would have told me two years ago that I’d do a boudoir shoot at all, let alone a boudoir…

Maybe it’s because my own wife is pregnant… Maybe it’s because I photographed Amy Duggar + Dillon King’s wedding. Whatever the reason, I was almost OVERLY excited to photograph Amy Duggar maternity portraits. Pregnancy pictures can be so beautiful, and Amy’s were a thing of wonder. We found a sunflower field in NW Arkansas to…

Hey everybody! It seems like I’ve been on the road a lot lately. It’s not stopping anytime soon, which is a good thing (I’m thankful for all my wonderful clients)! Recently I made the drive over to OKC for a maternity session (I have the story of how this shoot came about in an upcoming…

Hey everybody! I don’t know who was more excited for this maternity session, Abby or me. I met her at a wedding and she and Max were that couple who danced and encouraged everyone else to have a great time. I love that couple! Her maternity session fell on a gorgeous day, which inspired me…

Hey everybody! One of NWA’s coooooolest families is getting a little bigger! Jessica and Logan Kersey, and long with little Liam, are welcoming a new addition to the family and I had the honor of photographing them recently. We met up on the Bentonville square and meandered, shooting along the way. Liam was a little…

Hey everybody! One of my very first maternity clients years ago when I started shooting them was Holly! She’s been a dear friend to us over the years and we’ve loved watching their family grow. And now it’s growing again!! We recently photographed Holly’s sweet belly (and family!). Have a look! Momma and Scout. So…

Hey everybody! I just love Michelle and Cam! They’re our New Orleans friends (who used to live here, and we misssss them!). They came up to Fayetteville recently and the stars aligned (aka… our schedules aligned) and we were able to squeeze in a session of her cuuuuuuute pregnant belly! Yay! Have a peek! Definitely…

Hey y’all! Rachel here – first time writer, long time reader 😉 You may have seen me out and about with Dale and Mere these past few months! I am absolutely LOVING being apart of this team! So a little backstory: My baby brother (okay, he’s 25 — YIKES!) and my sweet sis-in-law, Brit, are…

Hey everybody! I’m sure you’ll remember one of our coolest Benny couples of all time, Afton and Ryan… well, THEY’RE EXPECTING!! I can’t wait for Afton to be a mom (she’ll be a great one), because she and the soon-to-be-family-of-three moved into our neighborhood and Cece will have another friend! Yay! Oh, how I love…

Hey everybody! Our sweet Benny Bride, Mandy, is having a baby! She’s actually due pretty soon and asked us to photograph her, Ben, and her cute belly (with Liam inside)! Always SUCH fun to hang out with this couple… truly one of my top all-time favorite couples! Here are some of my favorites… Talk to…

Hey everybody! I’m IN LOVE with these Urban Belly portraits of Holly (and Tony)! Our special take on maternity portraits, Urban Belly Portraits, which we started in 2008, are great because it allows us to be true to our style (I think we’ve all seen those maternity portraits out there that are definitely not Benfield…

Hey everybody! Remember our style on maternity? We call it Urban Belly and we’re really proud of creating a style of maternity in which the mom is excited to show off her images, even to her preacher. 😉 They show off mom’s style, while still accentuating the belly. Our latest Urban Belly maternity session was…

Hey everybody! Remember a few weeks ago when I photographed the gorgeous baby shower for Samantha George? Shortly after, we scheduled a maternity session with her and her husband Charles. It was a rainy day, so we stayed inside their home for the shots, which worked out as well as any outdoor location – their…

Fall Baby Photos might be my new favorite. Showing up an hour early to a photo shoot has its advantages. Tyler, Scout, and I decided to make the most of our time during a recent senior portrait session. Our senior portrait client, who lives in Oklahoma, wanted to shoot at Sassafras Springs Vineyard in Northwest…

Before we talk about the Best Family Portrait nominees, I have an important question: What is family? To me, family can be so many things. For example, a mom and her fur-baby is totally a family. Likewise, a couple who has each other is a family. Of course, there is always the traditional couple with…

NWA Wedding Venues have a new listing I’ve photographed at pretty much all the NWA wedding venues. So when I discover a new location, I try to photograph it asap so I can share it with y’all. One new place I’m really excited about is the Lodge at the Winery. Sassafras Springs Vineyard is already…

Hey y’all! You might remember a few months ago when I blogged (for my first time!) about a maternity shoot I did for my brother and sister-in-law. Well, sweet Elijah William made his debut on November 13th and, might I add, he is PERFECT. I just got back (like literally 2 days ago) from Amman,…
