I've photographed families in studios, homes, beautiful outdoor locations, and places that were meaningful simply because someone loved being there - like I love this bench on The Grand Promenade.

There is just something special about making a family portrait in your hometown.

Hot Springs has such a recognizable personality.

The architecture. The mountains. The water. The historic buildings. The trails and trees. The places we've walked so many times we forget how special they are.

Years from now, I want your family portrait to tell a story bigger than "this was our 2026 picture". I want it to remind you of who you were, where you were, and how you cared for one another.

That's one of the reasons I chose three very different Hot Springs locations for the The October Portrait Tour.

The first stop is The Grand Promenade.

If you've lived in or around Hot Springs for any length of time, you know this place. The Grand Promenade runs behind Bathhouse Row and is one of those places that feels immediately, unmistakable Hot Springs.

The October Portrait Tour begins here this weekend.

Three iconic Hot Springs locations.
Three weekends.
One limited-edition portrait experience.

Each location has it's own look, personality, and story.

And because I know not everyone needs a full portrait experience every time, I've made this one simple:

20-minute location portrait experience
Up to 6 people
10 fully edited digital images
$295

And if you love all your images, you can add the complete gallery for $155 and download all the fully edited digital images. Select prints and products are also available to purchase from your gallery.

The dates:
October 10th & 11th - The Grand Promenade
October 24th & 25th - Hot Springs Greenway & Creek
October 31st & November 1st - Cedar Glades Park

Three places. Three weekends. One October.

Appointments are limited

Booking is now open.

There is something about October in Hot Springs. It is different here.

The light changes. The mornings get cooler. The leaves start to change. The humidity is gone and we can go outside again.

And somehow, every year, October makes me want to pull out the camera.

Not because anyone just needs another picture of themselves, but because, just like the leaves, families change.

Children get taller. Hair styles change. Someone who was carried in last year's portrait is standing tall this year. The tween who wasn't quite old enough to understand the importance of a family photograph before suddenly has an opinion about where to stand.

Those little changes are easy to miss when you are living them.

Portraits make them visible and give you a way to hold on to them, because tomorrow comes too quickly and brings it's own changes with it.

That's why I created The October Portrait Tour.

Three location. Three weekends. One October.

I'll introduce the first location tomorrow.

Happy birthday to one of my favorite little people! Happy whole hand day - I can't believe that little newborn that came into the studio is already this big.

This beautiful couple says “I do” in just a few days — on Valentine’s Day! It was such an honor to record this special season of their story, and this engagement film shows just a glimpse of the joy, laughter, and deep connection they share.

Here’s to love that’s genuine, joyful, and forever. ❤️
We can’t wait to celebrate you both so soon!
