Hale | Rogers Family Photographer

Here is our second photoshoot with Hale, or his 3rd if you count Ashley’s maternity shoot, or maybe his 4th since I took a few shots the day he was born.  Anyway, this sweet boy turned one last week and he just keeps getting cuter.

Kim & Che

Back on September 26th, Cyndi and I traveled to Delight, Arkansas to photograph Kim and Che’s wedding. They were another couple who found us and booked us online, so we hadn’t met them before their wedding day, which always makes us nervous. But the entire day couldn’t have been more laid back. Everyone was so nice and excited for Kim and Che! Check out our favorites…

Kim’s grandfather got up and sang a few songs during the reception. Sounded just like Johnny Cash (maybe even better) as he sang “Folsom Prison Blues.” It was awesome!

NWA Bridal Show Wrap Up!

I want to thank everyone who came out to the NWA Bridal Show yesterday and stopped by our booth. Our wall of photos was a hit! We had a ton of people tell us how much they loved our booth! And we had a really great time talking with brides and other local wedding pros.

Julie (Jules Design) was right next to us so we got to see her beautiful floral arrangements and stunning jewelry. She’s super sweet!

Our absolute favorite cake artist was there… Jennifer Matsubara and Shelby Lynn’s! She had a chocolate cupcake with Oreo frosting. A-MAZ-ING!!! You just can’t find another cake artist like her!

Thanks to Dale Benfield for taking these photos of Cyndi and me!
