Katey is a lovely, quiet young lady who came to us with two simple requests; she did not want photos in the traditional field or tall grass setting, and she wanted to be photographed in sunflowers. There aren’t many sunflower fields in Memphis, but every year around the first of August, there’s a big field of them at Shelby Farms Park. So, with her requests in mind, we started our session in downtown Memphis and captured lots of fun portraits in unique, quirky urban locations. When she told me she played guitar, I knew the Levitt Shell would be the perfect spot to capture that side of her. It’s a classic setting for local bands, and was one of Elvis’ favorite places to perform in Memphis. Finally, we wrapped up our shoot in the sunflowers at sunset.

While the end of December is never an ideal time for any outdoor photographer, sometimes we’re faced with a decision; be cold or be without our craft. For this set, I chose my camera over the safety of my fingertips.

Things just sort of fell into place for this shoot. The outfits weren’t planned until the night before, the hair was pulled together by yours truly and the makeup applied by the model. For some reason, it totally worked.

We went for a more dreamy, storybook feel for these shots. Something a bit romantic. Believe it or not, these we actually shot at a tiny neighborhood park about thirty seconds from my house. It doesn’t look like much, but it photographs as though it’s in the middle of a forest.

I’ve always wanted to bring an animal into a shoot, so we decided to start small. Literally. Fufanu is my little Pomeranian, although I think he looks more like a fox. He was such a good sport for these. However, I made the mistake of ignoring he while we snapped a few more, and before I knew it, he had disappeared. It took about an hour for him to return. Lesson learned. Dogs need leases.
