Born and raised in a small town has its advantages. It forces us to "dream big", "make our own way" and of course, "break the norm". So, that is what I did... I set off with an idea to be happy doing what God had blessed me with - the idea to create.

I Peter 4:10 — Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in it's various forms.

My passion for photography blossomed from my love for art. Throughout college I began taking pictures on the side and outside of my photo class projects. Each time I did so it reaffirmed my desire to make photography one of the top priorities in my life. So, here I am, building a dream and living it one smile at a time.

Because I love what I do – it shows and I would want nothing more but for others to be apart of that experience.

God has shown me that when we use what He has given us for good, He blesses us. For that I give Him the glory.

Enjoy —

Thank you, thank you for doing such a great job on our wedding photos! I love all of them!! Thank you for being creative and for not just taking the "posed" typical photos. Again, thank you!
— Jared and Megan Shear

Thank You again for our wedding pictures. They are so fun, your really captured our personality in them, and made them fun to take, sometimes getting your picture taken is so boring, but you made it a blast, all the fun poses and joking and playing in between, you really handled the crazy groomsmen well, they still mention you. We also really appreciated the way you came through for us on the pictures of Cole's dad, after that awful event it was a comfort for everyone to have those pictures. They were the most recent ones taken of him, and that means a lot. Anyways, we just wanted to say thanks.

Hey y'all! Hayley requested I put a section up here for myself...so here goes. I'm a Texan, husband, father, son, brother, grandson, uncle, nephew and hopefully a good friend to many I call dear friends.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ, my precious wife, my chubby baby girl, all my family and friends, laughing, the beach, Texas, Star Wars, really awkward situations, music, movies, charcoal grilling meat, the Black Hills, traveling, night-time snow-skiing, PC gaming, roller-coasters, hand-crafting furniture, reading, Schlitterbahn, computers, technology, dirt bikes, and all things design and web. I think that covers the majority of it, but I'm sure I forgot something.

I've been an artist all my life, and pursued graphic design starting in high school waaaay back in 1995. From there I earned an Associates Degree in Digital Media Design, where I was introduced to web programming. Since then, web design has become one of my main passions and I'm always excited to learn something new. Fortunately, there are tons of equally dedicated and much more gifted designers and programmers all over the web eager to share their knowledge and skills, to whom I'm very thankful.
