ABOUT ME...

So, this is where I try to sound interesting...

I am a Baton Rouge, Louisiana-based wedding, commercial, and family photographer. I am originally from Shreveport, Louisiana where I first became interested in photography after a sixth grade project. For the next decade or so, I thought of it as a hobby, but never a career. That came while at LSU, working for the student paper, The Reveille. After finishing an MBA a few years later, I started shooting fulltime to avoid a cubicle life and the 9-5 drudge that comes with it.

In 2008, I opened a studio in Birmingham, Alabama servicing Atlanta Metro and Northern Alabama. After a too-brief year, I returned to Louisiana to continue building my career at home.

I currently accept 30 wedding bookings a year to balance with my other work (and life). I truly love my job and try to reflect that in every shot. Take a look and drop me a line if you want more info!

A taste….

Okay, back alive. It was AMAZING!

Here are a few….I will do a monster post soon, and a new category on my main site, so look out.

So I can’t get it rotate? But either way, in New Zealand. My travel buddy bailed the day before, so I am headed out alone! Very fun so far, and making my way south….ps, its freezing. I will try to upload a video as well….if not, cheers ;) Rotorua, New Zealand

The Big Summer Catch-Up!

I have to apologize….I have been so slammed this summer. I have totally been blowing this off…..I built a new website, shot weddings in Atlanta, South Carolina, California, and all over Louisiana.  Plus, so much commercial and session work. Its been a long, wonderful summer. I am leaving for New Zealand tomorrow for a much needed vacation…but I wanted to post a few samples from the last few months so people would know I was still kicking!

April & Gabe Wedding Sneak Peek [Tuscaloosa]

Went up to Birmingham this weekend for April & Gabe’s wedding this week. It was great to see all of my friends and hang out at my favorite places (Dave’s on 20th). Brendon and I shot the wedding together, so it was also a ton of fun to shoot with him. Either way, we got some great results! Tuscaloosa, AL.

Martin Pet Portrait [Birmingham]

One of my friends in Birmingham, Shelley, had me take a few photos of her parent’s dog for a Mother’s Day present…Martin definitely had some energy, but once we got him settled, he was a great subject ;) Birmingham, AL.
