Leila + Thomas | Engagement Images | Downtown Little Rock & Museum of Discovery

Jason Crader — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 04:40:15 +0000

I had a great time photographing Leila & Thomas’s engagement session yesterday. I met up with them at the Museum of Discovery, where Thomas works and the site of their reception, and we headed out the doors to a beautiful day and a super fun shoot. The weather was perfect (60 degrees in January!) and Leila and Thomas were so fun to photograph. After we shot outside, we went indoors to photograph inside the Museum. The Museum has recently undergone a major renovation and it looks amazing. I encourage anyone reading this to take an afternoon off to visit this place. It is great for kids and adults! We capped a wonderful afternoon off by grabbing dinner and drinks at Boscos.

Here are some of my favorite images from yesterday’s shoot!

I met up with Lindsay & Wade last Sunday afternoon to photograph their engagement session. They are a great couple and I had a lot of fun with them. Wade had found an awesome spot that showcased the city skyline, so that is where we began the session and then ended it at Two Rivers Park. Here are some of my favorites from the shoot!

I had the pleasure of photographing Lauren & Daniel’s engagement session at the University of Arkansas last Sunday. They are a super nice couple, and I really enjoyed hanging out with them Sunday afternoon. After the shoot on the UofA‘s campus, we went to a family friend’s farm to finish their session.

I created the slide show below to show at my MAPsym 2011 presentation. I did this to show other photographers one of my recent engagement sessions. Several photographers asked me to post it on my blog so they could watch it again. Here it is!

Casey + Jesse | Engagement Images | Arkadelphia, AR

Jason Crader — Mon, 09 May 2011 00:13:27 +0000

I had an AWESOME time with Casey & Jesse yesterday. We started out in Little Rock and took a few photos before heading to Arkadelphia, Arkansas for our official engagement photography shoot.

Jesse is a firefighter for the Little Rock Fire Department, so we began by taking a few pictures at the station where he works. We then moved downtown for a few photos before heading to Arkadelphia to photograph at the barn where Casey & Jesse will be getting married later this year. It is a beautiful setting for a wedding and I can’t wait to shoot there again this fall. After shooting in and around the barn, we headed for Jesse’s family farm where we ended the session. Both Casey and Jesse are great people and I feel fortunate to be the photographer that gets to shoot their wedding.

Here are some of my favorites from yesterday’s shoot!
