Our next installment of Taegan’s Bentonville senior pictures take place at the most unlikely of places: A movie theatre. There is a really cool theatre in downtown Bentonville (think: a modern architecture version of Alamo Drafthouse) that had 4 different background textures to use for senior photos. Since I hadn’t shot at this venue before, […]

Taegan isn’t from Northwest Arkansas, but that didn’t deter her from getting her senior portraits in NWA. She wanted something different than her friends from Joplin High School, so she and her family made the short drive to the Natural State for gorgeous senior pictures. Today I’m going to share some of my favorites from […]

Most photographers (particularly those in their first couple years of business) are so busy trying to figure out how to run a successful business that spending time with chores that don’t directly impact sales is often overlooked.

It’s been a minute since I photographed this Modeling Photo Shoot of Lauren. However, I realized I never blogged them. The shoot is so good and she is such a talented model, that I felt I had to share this Modeling Photo Shoot. We wanted to play around in front of the camera and shoot […]

I’ve previously shared Modeling Portfolio Photos in NW Arkansas of my friend Alex, but realized I had a bunch you haven’t seen! We shot these photos after Alex was signed to a modeling agency (YAY, but hard work!) and needed some fresh images for her portfolio. The agency gave some requests (typical) that we used […]

I never thought of myself as a Supermodel Photographer, but after the shoots I have been doing recently, I am definitely going to reconsider. It helps that I married a supermodel, duh. But it also helps that the very same wife introduced me to her OU college friend, Carmen. Return of the Ballerina Bride… You […]

I love editing before and after photos. Most photographers don’t love editing. It’s the “drudgery work” that often lacks sexiness. It’s busywork. But not for me! I find it so fascinating that I can change the look and feel and vibe of an image by playing around with the photo’s raw settings. I’m very curious […]

International Day of Mathematics When Will I Use Math in Photography: kids often wonder if they are going to use math in their career. No doubt, I’ve never used Base 8 mathematics (remember that?!), but I’ve used just about every other bit of mathematics in my photography career. That’s right… I use math in photography. […]

There was no specific reason to photograph these Sexy Headshots of My Wife, Tyler, but that didn’t stop me. I’ve been playing around with my style recently, as I tend to do every few years. While avoiding being trendy, I am constantly evolving as a photographer and artist. I read fashion magazines and wedding magazines, […]
