I’ve been looking forward to JoyBeth’s pictures for a really long time; she’s such a natural in front of the camera. We had a blast, and even pulled off some night shots (as she and Kaleb got chased down by a Target employee who wasn’t exactly happy about the cart…).

Thanks JB! It was a bee-last!

I can’t begin to tell you how much fun this shoot was. These two kids are some of the funniest, craziest, cutest little people on the planet. I hope the Robinson family is as happy as I was with how these turned out. You guys rock!

See more from this shoot at their Flickr set.

Erin came up to Shreveport on a day that felt like a hurricane training exercise, but we braved the winds, fought the good fight, stayed the course, etc., and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Erin’s a senior from Pineville, LA, and I hope she enjoys the shots as much as I enjoyed taking/editing them.

Thank you, Erin!

WOW!

The blog has gotten absolutely no love at all as of late. I’ve been too busy to blog anything though, so that’s a good thing. The first of an upcoming four-set barrage: the Verchers.

They drove up from South Louisiana to visit family, and while they were here we linked up and had a BLAST in taking pictures in Shreveport. This is a family of five, all outgoing, all friendly, all just a little bit crazy (in the fun-to-be-around way).

Thank you guys so much! I had an absolutely fantastic time with y’all, and I’m so glad we finally got together for this shoot. Y’all rock!

Shari and I are so pumped about how Kelli’s senior shots turned out. Kelli is a student in our youth group, and it was a blast roaming all over Shreveport, laughing, and trying to force a serious face out of her every once in a blue moon.

Thank you, Kelli! We love ya!

(there were more shots from Kelli’s shoot than I felt anyone would sift through on the blog, so you can see more HERE at my Flickr site)

Kelli wanted some shots with Shari, so we had a few duo pics…

I squeezed this one in of the wife before we called it a day. Loooovely, yeah?

I can’t believe I haven’t blogged these two yet. I added their shots to Flickr several weeks ago, but lost a WordPress draft and somehow neglected to post them before last week’s media blackout.

So anyhoo, here are Brett and Ashley’s engagement shots. I’m really pumped about the upcoming bridals and wedding in the next few weeks. Thanks, guys!

I’m catching up on edits from non-paid events and such. Things are a little slow for me business-wise right now, but I do have some engagements that are still being edited at the moment.

Anyhoo, here are some fun little shots from the past several weeks…

From Harrison’s 4th Birthday Party (with Rayleigh):

From the night of a youth rally:

(no crazy Photoshop work here; just a ton of black lights in Springhill)

From the L1FT Valentine’s Banquet:

And some random shot of brother-in-law:

I had the privilege of shooting pictures for a young, aspiring actress here in the Shreveport region the other day. I think you can see for yourself that she is perfectly comfortable in front of the camera.

You guys were fantastic! Thank you so much for romping around Shreveport with me without questioning my sanity (at least not out loud).

Smiling, happy couple + kid with awesome personality + great conditions outside = blast of a shoot.

You guys absolutely rocked! Thank you so much for letting me take some family portraits for you guys.

If you take one more picture of me, I’m throwing this rock down that fancy-looking lens of yours!

Jonah and Melissa are two beautiful people who I have a lot of admiration for. I was very happy to be their photographer, and we had a great time with engagements, bridals, and the wedding itself.

Thank you guys both so much for your patience, your friendship, and your trust. You guys rock.
