Isaac is 3 months old!


Hard to believe it's been three months since I photographed Isaac's newborn session. He is growing like crazy, but so, so adorable. He was such a little trooper for his session - and smiled through the whole two hours. Even when we dressed him up in hats and a giraffe costume. Just adorable! Very difficult to pick my favorites, but here goes:

I believe this is the new Gerber Baby





That is Dad's brand new Jiu Jitsu blue belt - so we couldn't resist getting it in Isaac's session






Jason and Jill, you guys have the most precious baby! He gets cuter every time I see him. I could seriously bring him home with me. Thank you so much for sharing him with me. To see all of Isaac's 3-month session, click here. - Cheryl

Casey and Brad e-session


This past Saturday I drove up to Melbourne to meet Casey and Brad to photograph their e-session. I just love the Ozarks in the fall, it was a gorgeous drive. Lovers of the outdoors, Casey and Brad picked a couple of their favorite spots to use for their portraits. We photographed around Melbourne and Guion, and I saw some parts of Arkansas I had never seen before. I had a lot of fun getting to know them. You can just tell by how they look at each other, they are so excited to start their lives together. Here are my favorites:








Thanks for touring me around the backroads of Melbourne on Saturday. I'm excited to be photographing your wedding in December...even though you may have to come with your four-wheel drive to get me if it snows! LOL - Cheryl

Laura and Derrick e-session


On an absolutely gorgeous fall morning, I met Laura and Derrick in Wynne to photograph their engagement session. It was a little chilly when we started, but all in all it was a perfect morning. Hayden might disagree, since she opted to stay inside with Grandpa where it was warm:-) Laura and Derrick have been together for six years and will get married next month. After photographing their e-session, I'm really looking forward to the wedding. Here are my favorites:











I had fun hanging out with you guys. I think the fun-side of you really came through in your portraits. Can't wait for your wedding next month! See all of Laura and Derrick's e-session here. - Cheryl

Sarah and Brad got married!


Last Saturday, Brad and Sarah got married at her parent's beautiful home. I have been looking forward to their wedding since I met them. They are such an awesome couple. Fun to be around, and so much in love. The wedding day could not have been more perfect. I enjoyed seeing all their family and friends come together to celebrate their wedding. It was a day filled with love, family, friends, smiles and fun. We really enjoyed being with them on their wedding day. Here are my favorites:


We photographed a formal bridal session for Sarah last month, so we tried to do some fun things for her on wedding day. Couldn't resist the boots with the barn in the background. Sarah played softball in college, which is what brought her to Arkansas - so we had to do that. You can see Sarah's formal bridal fashion session at this link.


The first meeting...my favorite part of couple photography on wedding day.








Not sure if that is Captain Morgan or River Dance.LOL




Now, that's just hot!

Heather Skinner not only coordinated the wedding, but took care of all the details and decor that you see. Awesome job! If you are looking for a wedding coordinator, you should definitely give Heather a call.














Keathley kept everyone entertained all day long. He is definitely his own party! But a heck of a talented songwriter...lyrics on the fly at any time.




If I had to say there was a theme to everything you just saw and their wedding - I would say it was happiness. Brad and Sarah were so excited, and you could tell everyone just enjoyed the day so much.

Sarah and Brad, thank you so much for including me on your wedding day. I hope it was everything that you dreamed it would be. I wish for you a lifetime of love and laughter. - Cheryl
