Did you know Morgan is a 4𝒕𝒉-𝒅𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒕? 🥋🔥
One of the best parts of my job is getting to know my clients and learning about their incredible talents. Take Morgan, for example—this fun-loving senior from E.D. White is already impressive, and 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝑰 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒔𝒉𝒆’𝒔 𝒂 4𝒕𝒉-𝒅𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝑻𝒂𝒆𝒌𝒘𝒐𝒏𝒅𝒐! She’s been training for years, and let me tell you… she’s the real deal. 💪
We started this session by capturing some images where she trains, Tiger Rock Martial Arts in Thibodaux, LA. Huge thanks to them for letting us shoot! Can’t wait to share more from this session, to show you where we wound up!

Jesse was a troubled teen who grew up “in church” but chose to turn his back on God and go his own way. That was until God completely changed his life! 𝑯𝒊𝒔 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒅𝒐𝒏’𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒔.
For those who knew Jesse before, his story is almost unbelievable—but for those who know God, it’s just another example of His amazing grace and power to transform lives.

I just love the way these wedding photos look. 𝑩𝒖𝒕, 𝑰 𝒎𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒂 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏. As many years as I have been behind a camera, it finally happened...
𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑, 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐭.
Yep, I had to be careful not to say anything that would dampen the spirits of Emily as she and her family and friends had such a sweet time together. 𝑩𝒖𝒕, 𝑰 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒅.
This outdoors wedding was a very low-light situation. (𝐿𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑙𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝐼 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝐸𝑉𝐸𝑅 𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑡 𝑖𝑛!) I had seen some beautiful images from the venue, but they were taken at dusk, 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑎𝑡 𝑛𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡. The venue was absolutely gorgeous, the wedding party was looking awesome, and the bride was beautiful... and it was DARK outside! The twinkle lights were great and the whole setup had a glowing ambiance that seemed perfect.
But the question remained for me... "𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒅𝒐 𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒑𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒓𝒖𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒕??"
Without a doubt, this is a time when equipment makes a huge difference. A crop sensor camera would not have cut it. Even a full-frame DSLR would have been rough. I shoot with a Canon full-frame mirrorless camera (which performs great in low-light) and I was pushing it to capture enough light while still maintaining a decent image.
I think we captured it the way it was looking to our eyes. 𝑰𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒂𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒇𝒖𝒍, 𝑬𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑴𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒂𝒏!

I figured I would share a little something personal with you all. This is a Christmas play at the church in Baton Rouge that Samantha and her boys attend. (𝑆𝑎𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑎 𝑖𝑠 𝐿𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑠𝑎𝑦'𝑠 𝑜𝑙𝑑𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑑𝑎𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑒𝑟. 𝑆𝑎𝑚𝑚𝑦, 𝑀𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐿𝑢𝑘𝑎 𝑎𝑟𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑘𝑖𝑑𝑠, 𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑠.)
Sammy and Miles were Roman guards in the play. These guys.... 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒆 𝒈𝒖𝒚𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒂 𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒕.
Watching them just being Sammy and Miles in that play was a lot of fun. They giggled at times, tried to maintain their composure, and tried to look like tough Roman guards.
Excuse the angles, I was shooting snapshots in the back like any other grandparent. That is why you will see people's heads in the shots, etc.

We met and heard a powerful testimony of God’s deliverance from a young lady named Maggie. I don’t think there was a dry eye in the place after she told her story. She reminded us of God's transformative power for those who call out to him, as well as the way He uses us as humans to carry the light of the Gospel of Christ to the world.

Over the past year, I have continued to closely examine my editing technique, learned a few things, and have overhauled my editing work flow from what it was 2 years ago. I am liking the results!
Last night I chose four images and put them through the last little "tweak" that I learned and BAM... Success!
This is what we offer our clients... the relentless pursuit of beautiful photographic art in our portraits.
We look forward to shooting for you and your family!

Sometimes as photographers, we shoot the same families and their kids over the years. In this case, I have known this family for years. Their dad and I coached and taught together, and I have shot their portraits and sports pictures.
There are those times when I look at the portraits we have shot and start to feel the years. Yep. 𝙏𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚. The Percles and now the Montgomery kids. 😲
But, it's all good. I am blessed to have formed friendships over the years and it is a blessing to watch all these kids growing up. 🤓
Thanks Josh and Lauren for the opportunity to capture these beautiful images of your kiddos. It was awesome!

This year’s Destination Session took us back to one of my all-time favorite spots—𝙉𝙖𝙩𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙯, 𝙈𝙞𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙥𝙥𝙞! 🌟 Established by French colonists in 1716, Natchez is one of the oldest cities in the lower Mississippi Valley, located right on the Mississippi River across from Vidalia, Louisiana. For a photographer, it’s a dream with its rich textures and historic downtown—perfect for senior portraits!
We had both morning and afternoon sessions, making the most of Natchez’s incredible scenery. And this trip wasn’t just about portraits—it was packed with memorable moments:
🍦 𝗜𝗰𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗮𝘁 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗩𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮

⛪ 𝗕𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀
And honestly, we didn’t even scratch the surface of all there is to see!
Lindsay and I already have plans to head back soon. Natchez just has that charm that makes it special every single time.
I’ve posted a mix of photos from the sessions, including some background shots taken by a couple of the moms—huge thanks to them! 🙌 I also included some fun 𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 so you can see just how much our seniors enjoyed themselves. Their smiles were contagious!
Natchez, you’ve done it again. 🖤 If you haven’t been, put it on your list. And if you’re a senior looking for portraits, this is definitely a location you don’t want to miss!

I just love these images of Preston. It was the second afternoon and the morning of day 3 when we had our sessions with the guys, Preston and Mason. 𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑎 𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑡!
After our day one afternoon and day two morning with Morgan, who ALSO possesses a great sense of humor herself, is "a bit cray cray" and brings laughs to her sessions, we finished with the two guys.
Preston adds his own comments to our banter and it is a lot of fun. I love shooting with these young men and women who know how to dovetail with my yearning to have fun in these sessions.
These three days this week were just perfect. More about it later! 👀

In the last part of 2024 and heading into 2025, we decided to diversify the business. We began to shoot weddings again and want to do more family portrait sessions. That has started to happen and we are excited about it.
Here is another awesome family for which we had the opportunity to do family portraits: the Picou Family. A few years ago I had the privilege to shoot senior portraits for both Taylor and Caitlyn, and now Caitlyn is one of my co-workers.
We love the images we captured of the Picous and look forward to more family portrait sessions in the new year! Send us a message here on Facebook if you want to schedule your family session, or text us at 901-603-9150.
