Megan and John

OMG!! I can't believe that I helped hook someone up at mine and Kyle's wedding?!?! Megan Markham is a good friend from my college days and John Earnhart is a childhood friend of Kyle's. They met on our rehersal dinner night and started dating shortly after our wedding. I was honored when Megan asked me to take their engagement photos for their wedding announcement. I am so excited for both of them....they are super cute together!!

Janelle Young

I have always thought pregnant women were some of the most beautiful people I have ever seen when it comes to photography. Janelle, my sister-in-law, is due at any time now. She looks like she is about to pop! I knew if would be a special thing for her to have photos of her first pregnancy, so on a rainy Monday night we took some cute and somewhat sensual pregnancy photos.

April Cooper

I recently started my job at the USA Drug Corporate Office as a Helpdesk Analyst. I work with a varied group of people, but one of the most interesting is April Cooper. We became fast friends because we have so much in common. She used to work in the modeling field and wants to still work in that field on the side. She knew how much I liked photography, so she asked me to take some head shots of her. She told me if they were good, she would make me famous!

Well, this was the finale of the Box Turtle Fashion Show. KORTO MOMOLU!! Hopefully, even though I wasn't able to get good photos of every one of her models, she will like them when I give them to her. I hope this is my big photography break!!!

I finally got to do some professional work!! I went to the Box Turtle Fashion Show this weekend in Little Rock, AR. I had been attending the Project Runway Watch Parties with my mother-in-law and she happened to casually mention to one of the designers on the show that I was really good with photography. The designer was Korto Momolu. Korto told me that she did not have an official photographer and if I wanted, that she would love for me to take pictures of her show!! Needless to say, I immediately asked my boss if I could take off for this chance. She let me off and I got my camera ready for this new adventure. I asked Darla (mother-in-law) to go with me so she could share in this occasion. Her husband (Jerry) also went with us. Well, we got there very early and waited to see if we could talk to Korto. She never came out from wherever she and her models were hiding, so it was an all-for-one battle on the horrible seating arrangement. I and my family ended up sitting on the ground, facing the stage at a slight angle. It was a hassle for to shoot my pictures because there were some very excited children in front of me, the lighting was absolutly horrible, and some adults were mad because I kept sitting up to get my pictures. Darla set them straight though lol. Even with all those conditions, I managed to get some really good photos. These photos are from other designers that went before Korto's show.
