Marissa and Rocky

I spent some time getting to know Marissa and Rocky during their engagement shoot. What a fun couple! Enjoy a few teasers...

Lauren Capps - Miss Teen America? We'll see...

Had a blast shooting with Lauren Capps today for her entry in the Miss Teen America pageant. She decided to also enter in the "Miss Photogenic Teen" event and needed some last minute images. I think her pictures just shows off her vibrant "out of the box" personality. She loved the camera and the camera certainly loved her! What do you think?

Bambi Cantrell - Day 2

After a long day of working with Bambi and shooting three gorgeous couples, I'm exhausted. Before going to sleep, I managed to pull a few together to share. It's been an amazing experience working with one of the world's most renowned wedding photographers and learning from her. Thanks to Dawn Shields for bringing her to town to shoot the cover of Metropolitan Bride magazine. Looking forward to tomorrow.

Bambi Cantrell - Elfindale

Bambi Cantrell, one of the top wedding photographers in the world, is spending a few days in Springfield working with a handfull of photographers from Florida, California, Colorado and points in between. I'm lucky enough to be here as well. Here's a sample of some of the images we came up with on Day One. Our future Apple bride, Mee Chou, stopped by for a bridal session. Bambi shot a few images of her which I haven't seen yet. I bet they are incredible. Can't wait for days two and three. Stay tuned!!

I was honored to photograph for Real Encounter (http://www.realencounter.org) today. Brad needed fresh shots for the website. We went to work in the parking lot next to his shop. Here he is defying gravity and common sense! For those of you who aren't familiar with Real Encounter, they do great work in school assemblies, character building, evangelism training and reaching kids for the Lord. Check out the website.
