Fort Smith, AR Wedding Photographer | Michael & Ashley

A little over a week ago Michael & Ashley tied the knot. We decided that we wouldn’t put any images up until after they got back from their honeymoon so they wouldn’t be the last to see them. So now that they’re back here’s their preview… Leave ‘em some love in the comment section below!

tilt-shifty dress goodness

the ladies actually left their dresses hanging like this, no staging needed from the photographer (and gotta love the paint job of their dressing room!!)

The reception was even crashed by a real b-boy

We stole the newlyweds away for a couple of minutes to get just a few portraits; but keep an eye out in a couple of weeks for their “Day After” shoot…

Fort Smith & Sallisaw, OK Newborn Photographer | Kiefer @ 11 days

Here’s a few from my Sallisaw newborn photo session today (I guess technically yesterday since it’s 245 am). This little guy was one of a very limited number of newborns that actually slept through the *entire* session. He was asleep when I got there and asleep when I left. That’s not to say he didn’t fuss at me a few times for disturbing his sleep… Oh well, he got back at me, or should I say my blanket, in the end. Oh newborns, how cute - but very messy - you are.

Denver, Co Senior Photographer | Taylor

Today’s post is of Taylor, Hannah’s older sister. She was a natural in front of the camera, despite what she might say. Very easy to get a real laugh from, and after all, those are the best kind of photos.
On a side note, Taylor’s going to be a senior next year and is working on getting us some more seniors from the Denver area. It may seem early to get Senior Portraits done while still a junior in high school, but it’s a great time if you want to be a Photographing Sound Senior Model for us like Taylor. It’s just that much more time to recruit new clients for us, making that much more money per referral for her. That’s right, be a Senior Model for us, and we’ll pay you for referring new clients to us. Refer enough people and you could earn a new flat panel HDTV or even a new laptop. Yup, a new laptop or new TV, wouldn’t one of those go great in your dorm room? And it’s not like we’re just giving away one to some lucky Senior Model, each model that refers enough people earns one. Heck, get enough referrals and we’ll buy you one of each! (that would be a lot of referrals, but if you’re up to it, so are we!!)
So you’re saying what’s the point of Taylor being a Senior Model for us when she lives in Denver? Well, glad you asked: We’re planning on doing some sessions in Colorado later this year, so if you’re in the Denver area and are interested in a session, drop us a line in the comment box below or the contact us section above.
Now, on to Taylor’s pics…

Denver, CO Portrait Photographer | Hannah

Hannah came all the way from Denver with her sister and parents just to see us and have their pictures taken. At least that’s what we’re telling ourselves (I’m sure it has nothing to do with being related to these two). You’ll see the images of her sister tomorrow. On to the pics…

Fort Smith Bridal Photographer | Ashley…

Filed under: bridal, urban — AJ @ 8:00 pm

Ashley and Michael were married yesterday, so it’s time to post her Bridal pics from back in November. You may remember them from their firehouse engagement and urban engagement sessions (if not, go check ‘em out).

When I met up with Ashley to do her Bridal Portraits, we showed up and found out that her fiance was actually at a wedding reception at the very place we were supposed to meet. So we went elsewhere, and when we ended up across the street from where he was, in an alley,  she was about to totally freak thinking he was going to leave the reception any minute… kinda funny

Now, on to the images…
