This was a first for our studio. We’ve photographed siblings, we’ve had boyfriends tag along for senior sessions, but prior to this, we’d never had a pet chicken. It was actually pretty cool. Marlena showed up at our studio and I had no idea what I was in for. This girl has such a cool personality and then she raised the bar a bit by introducing us to her pet, Disco.

Here are four selections from her session.

Patrick is in love. … or at least he appears to be. The guy never stopped smiling the entire time we were photographing him and Jill.

I met Jill last year at her brother’s wedding that I photographed in Little Rock. Now, I get the opportunity to hang out with her family again, and I can’t wait. I recently met Jill and her mother in Little Rock to do Jill’s bridal session, but that will have to wait for now. Currently, we’re focusing on their engagement photos. Here are four of my quick picks from their session.

Dean walks into the studio and immediately seemed as if he had been a long time acquaintance. Normally I’ve got a bit of work to do to get the subject relaxed and willing to play, but with Dean that wasn’t needed. This guy was the one who was making me laugh throughout the entire shoot. Here are a few of my personal favorites from his session.

Yes, I’m bragging. Pure and simple. Nothing more than bragging, but that’s ok this time. Conner had his first track meet this evening, so for anybody who called the studio after 2 pm, I was off being a dad.

Here’s where the bragging comes in. In his first event, the long jump, Conner placed first with a jump of 14 feet, 11 inches. His 4×100 relay team also came in first and he placed third over all in the 100 meter dash. More important than how he performed was how much he enjoyed himself. So, to finish the bragging I’m posting five shots from his jump. These honestly are here so our family in Oklahoma can see him since they were not able to be here….. and partly because I’m proud of him and wanted to brag.

When I spoke to Brandi on the phone about their engagement photos, she told me that Luke didn’t really like having his picture taken very much, so I was kind of afraid that it was going to be a real job to get him to open up. I was wrong. From the second they walked into the studio, you could tell that both of them were incredibly in love and it was almost as if he forgot I was around.

Trisha and I truly enjoyed our afternoon with Brandi and Luke and cannot wait until we get to photograph their wedding. Here are a few picks from their engagement session. If you can’t tell, Luke really enjoyed the parts of the shoot that allowed him to kiss Brandi.
