Life Changes

It's been a long time since I posted anything on here.  Mostly because we've had a super busy summer, fall, and Christmas.  But now it's time to tell the news that we're leaving Vilonia and taking on another full time job in ministry.  Brent and I are excited to say that we will be working full time for a church camp that we absolutely love... Camp Caudle.  Before we started our photography business here, Brent and I worked in ministry, leading teens to Christ.  Photography started out as a side job to help make ends meet and soon took off so strong that it became more of a full time job which led us to build our studio and put down roots here in Vilonia, AR.  Over time we have felt God pulling on our hearts to get back into ministry again.  We're taking a leap and joining the crew at Camp Caudle.  It's a Christian church camp that Brent grew up going to.  We've always spent many days there, every year, volunteering or helping run sessions and Brent has served on the board of directors for a little over a year now.
Our photography business will not shut down entirely.  We may shoot a few portrait sessions here and there as time allows, but we will definitely keep shooting our wedding photos.  So please don't forget about us when you are searching for a wedding photographer!
We'd like to say a huge THANK YOU to our many wonderful and faithful portrait clients that have used us over the past 7 years.  Without you we wouldn't have had food on our table.  We have made friends with so many of you... laughed a lot and even cried with some of you, and laughed until we've cried.  We've gotten to know your kids and you've gotten to know ours.  You have been wonderful to us and we appreciate each of you!  We hope that we have made some photos that will hang on your wall forever and give you some blessed memories of your family.
We also hope that you know that God is the center of our lives and we have always tried to run our business with that showing.  We pray that each of you will put God first in whatever you do and live your life for Him!

We will keep posting the few portraits we shoot, weddings, and maybe some personal updates of our life at camp.  So check back in on us sometime!

Thank you again and God Bless!

For all of our clients, we have tried to get a letter out to you in the mail explaining how to get a hold of us if you need to reprint a photo or if you need graduation announcements this spring.  Here is a pdf of that letter to download if you did not receive one.
