A Week With the Observer...

So I have been working on this week's issue of the Washington County Observer. Here's a few images I took that I like.

Lindsey and Kevin...

Congrats to Lindsey and Kevin!



I shot their wedding at the Mildred B. Cooper Chapel in Bella Vista. It was a beautiful place built by Fay Jones. We were so happy it was air conditioned too! Man it was hot that day...

Their reception was also in a beautiful location but it was right next to a Walmart so here's how I tried to keep it out of mt shots...

unBELIZEable

We went to Belize for our honeymoon. It was so freaking awesome... once we got there. Turns out we left the day tropical storm Alex hit. So we spent the first night of our honeymoon in an airport hotel in Houston. We also had a romantic dinner at the Waffle House. :)



Once we got to the country we went to San Ignacio where we toured Mayan Temples and went on a caving tour into the Mayan Underworld.


















Next we went to the San Pedro along the beach. There we drank cocktails by the pool, went fishing and snorkeling.




















Overall it was an amazing trip and thank you to the Galligan's for the opportunity!

Wedding Pics!

I am finally getting around to posting some of m favorite photos Wamp took at Larry and I's wedding. :)

It was a wonderful day! I had so much fun and appreciate everyone who could make it out. They weren't lying when they said it's the happiest day of your life. :)

Thing I'm pretty sure I forgot to tell my wedding guests...

So the wedding is about a week away so here's some things I may have forgot to tell everyone:

We are registered at Bed, Bath and Beyond
Phone number for the Cosmopolitan Hotel: 479-442-5555
Phone number for the Powerhouse Grill (rehearsal dinner): (479) 442-8300
Phone number for the Garden Room:(479) 444-0993

Dress Code: Well I'll be in a dress and if I had my way everyone would have to wear one as well. :) Since Larry wasn't into this at all, the wedding party will be dressed formal but our guests can be semi-formal. It's going to be HOT so dress comfortably. It is an outdoor ceremony and the reception is outdoor/indoor.

If you guys have any questions please let me know!

Pretty flowers are always a good back up...

So we had a hole to fill in the Observer this week. I went into date, time, place mode and spotted some pretty flowers across the street. Then I thought "there's a pic!" This is what came of it...

Brides, Baseball and Sunburns...

This past Friday was a busy day of shooting a baseball state championship then bridal portraits on Dickson Street.

The game was fun because the team I was covering won so there was lots of action. :) But it was such a nice day I decided to wear a tanktop and no sunscreen. Turns out that was a horrible idea! I was red by the time I left the game then went to Dickson Street to shoot more outside shots. But it all turned out great! Here's a sample:

Ladies Weekend

During my trip to Virginia my mother, wonderful girlfriends and future mother in-law all got together and helped me celebrate my upcoming wedding.
First we had a bridal shower. I had to pretend to be a girl and even wore a dress but I had such a good time. :) My mother even hired a caterer. So I ate my weight in cheese, crackers, and chocolate torta. Mmmmm so good!!! Katie put together some amazing games and prizes. They were super fun since I won one. :) The presents were also way more than I expected. My girls ROCK! :)


















Then the next day we went on a wine tour bachelorette party. That was SO much fun! We kicked the tour off with some lama's. I totally wanted to go back and ride the lama's after a few glasses of wine. ;) Natalie got a veil with devil horns which made it fun to wear. It also got me a free bottle of wine. The wineries were so beautiful and the girls were made it hilarious. I feel so lucky! :)















One day I'm going to ride those lamas...
