    Natalie

    Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

    I had the great privilege of photographing Natalie’s mothers’ wedding last year at a beautiful little stone church in Fayetteville, AR. Not long after the wedding, Yvette and I were trying to plan out a portrait session for Natalie.

    I met Natalie and Yvette in downtown Ft. Smith to start things off. We actually ended up driving to quite a few different locations for variety AND because it was a scorcher that day. We hit up the old Trolley Museum, the River Park, the First Presbyterian Church, and various other cool spots. Long story short: we were hot, had fun, and got some amazing photos of an awesome girl. I definitely have to do another session with Natalie when she’s a senior.

    On my trip home to Oklahoma I was able to book a wedding right across the border in Charleston, Arkansas. The couple and the guests were all very relaxed and just ready to have fun, which makes my job easy!

    After the ceremony, I drove the couple back to their home for some gorgeous portraits. The whole wedding was planned to be on their property but due to extremely high temperatures, everything was moved to the building where the reception was to be held.

    Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Shirley! Thanks for having me along for your celebration.

    And yes, I was feeling the b+w images for this post! =)
