Guys, it’s been a super weird year to be a Northwest Arkansas wedding photographer. It wasn’t too long ago when we were all sitting around wondering if any weddings were going to be possible for the rest of the year (or for who knows how long). Brides were stressed, vendors were panicking about how on earth we were going to keep serving our clients, and so many families were in limbo. There’s something so incredibly special about being at a big event right now, especially in this context.

Katie & Tommy are one of the kindest, most wonderful couples I’ve ever gotten to work with. Katie’s sweet nature even through all the stress of planning a wedding during a pandemic was extraordinary, and their day at Osage House was absolutely gorgeous! The styling and planning by Wed by Meg was perfect (as always) and it was amazing to watch all the vendors and Katie & Tommy’s families come together to celebrate them. I got so many photos I love from this day that it was incredibly hard to narrow it down for this blog post, but I tried my best and I hope you enjoy!

(Also, I definitely did listen to that one Trisha Yearwood song on repeat while I edited this.)(Actually no I didn’t.)(Or maybe I did, you’ll never know.)

Osage House Wedding

This wedding. Y’ALL. I think I say this about all my weddings (and I mean it every time) but seriously you guys, Trayla & Landon’s gorgeous RECORD Bentonville Wedding was every single thing this Arkansas wedding photographer has ever dreamed of.

The candles, the confetti, and the CEILING BLING! The huge, gorgeous cake, the gold accents, the greenery…but you know? The best kinds of weddings are the ones where yeah, there’s eye-catching beauty everywhere…but there’s also the incredible feeling of love and support that makes you catch your breath.

Trayla and Landon’s family and friends pitched in left and right. The people who love them bustled around ceaselessly hanging decor, setting out programs, lighting candles and arranging dinnerware.

I just can’t think of a more special team of people to give you the day of your dreams!

Now, dear reader, scroll down and enjoy these images of Trayla and Landon’s incredible wedding day. Then go let them know what a fantastic job they did!!!

RECORD Bentonville Wedding Photographer

It was my last wedding of the year. Of the decade. This decade that ushered in my transition from primarily birth and portrait photography to being solely an Arkansas wedding photographer, and then saw nearly 200 sweet couples get married in front of my camera. I learned so much and I had times of struggle, but even more times of breathtaking happiness that I get to do what I love for a living. My career – heck, my LIFE – is forever changed by all that transpired over the last 10 years.

It’s really difficult to find words to describe how incredible Milo and Sophia’s gorgeous wedding was. It was brisk and chilly outside but just one step inside the door of the Ravington made it clear – this place was warm. Not just because the chill was gone from the air, but because it had that quiet warmth that you feel when a caring team of vendors and loving family members all gather in one place to make someone’s dream day happen. Jessica and her team bustled around setting tables and executing the plans they’ve worked on for a year. Emma was perfectly perched up on a ladder attaching greenery to suspended lines above the dance floor. Mike and Todd tirelessly carried production gear and crates to set up for a fun and memorable reception.

And Milo and Sophia? These lovebirds are some of the most kind and classy people you’ll ever meet. Their love for each other and their beautiful energy for the people they love is evident from the moment you first meet them. Is it any wonder that they have so many people who want to give them the world?

Take a few minutes and scroll these photos to see a little snapshot of their perfectly wonderful NYE wedding (and be sure to stop for a sec at the bottom to check out their amazing team of vendors). I’m so glad I got to be there!!
