3 kids, a dog and a hairless cat. not kidding. | Arkansas Family Photography

We LOVE when families bring their pets with them for photoshoots...especially when they are unique and exceptionally cute. ;) We photographed the Mohler's several weeks back and had a BLAST! We first met Mark and Pauline when they hired us for their wedding three years ago, and immediately fell in love with their whole family! Right now we're in the process of putting together a "mommy" album for Pauline that includes several photos of the kids from the past three years ... along with their various pets. Both this cute little puppy and hairless cat are new additions, and I have to say that although I generally like dogs better, Zadie the hairless cat is precious! She has the cutest little personality - always exploring her surroundings. And she kind of feels like a warm peach ;) Enjoy this sneak peek from their session, and there will be more to come soon on facebook!

 

Elise + Emerson | Arkansas Kids Photography

Elise and Emerson came to Siloam this past weekend from Michigan to visit relatives for the Easter holiday, and their parents decided to schedule a portrait session. It was a beautiful (though quite windy) morning, and we ended up coming back to the studio to finish out the session ... with sidewalk chalk on our wall!! Here are some of our favorites ;)

  

daffodils and redheads | Northwest Arkansas Kids Photography

Today started out so beautiful ... our first kids session this morning was in a field of daffodils with the cutest red-headed sisters, Elise and Emerson. We had no idea, but their dad was taking photos of US with his phone as we were photographing the girls, and we were so excited to see an email from him this afternoon with these attached. ;) So, thanks Zach, and I'm so glad that the couch on top of our MINI provided good entertainment!! For the last half of the session we came back to the studio where the girls drew all over our blue wall with sidewalk chalk, having a blast and looking cute for the photos all at once. I can't wait to post a few from this session!!

   

Aus10 is featured in Professional Photographer!!

 

We are truly honored to be included in the April issue of Professional Photographer magazine, which is one of the world's leading photo magazines!! I am not sure, but I think we are one of the only (if not the only) studios from Northwest Arkansas to have a Professional Photographer article written about us. 

Through their research, PPA has found that portrait and wedding studios based in the photographers' homes have very high success rates as compared to studios in retail spaces, especially in the past several years. This has a lot to do with the ability to keep overhead costs lower and minimize risk. Plus, homes are generally more comfortable and welcoming to customers. When the magazine decided to write an article that would highlight a few home studios around the country, they loved the photos we posted last fall on our studio tour and asked for more info. We were finally selected to be one of the four studios featured ... and we received the lead-in 2-page spread for the article! Up until today it hasn't seemed real, but we received a packet in the mail with a few copies and were ecstatic to finally see the article in print. 

We really couldn't have done it without our amazing clients, who have helped us grow our business from the start by supporting us, loving us and our photos and providing great feedback. The past four years have been an amazing ride, and we can't wait to see what's in store for the future! So check out the digital copy of the article, and of course we'll have the real thing at the studio so you can see it next time you come in! 

aus10 product spotlight / mom's brag book

One of our hot products this year has been our "Mom's brag book." It's is a little purse-sized book that you can carry around photos of your kids or family and show them off to your friends ;) 

 

Ainsley | Arkansas Children's Photography

We had several photo sessions today, but I wanted to share this super cute 16 month old with you. It has finally gotten (barely) warm enough to photograph outside ... and Ainsley was one of the most happy and cooperative kids, and she even knows sign language!

 

courtney and tatum | Northwest Arkansas Family Photography

We had so much fun with the Hedgepeth family a couple of weeks ago! Some would say that it's challenging photographing two older kids, but I absolutely love this photo of Courtney and Tatum! So classic ...

 

Destin {ROCK YOUR SMILE} | Northwest Arkansas Photographer

Another super fun "ROCK YOUR SMILE™" session with Destin. I love all of our wonderful clients who want to brave the cold to take fun photos outside. ;) Enjoy, and keep voting for our photobooth couple!

 

a new look

Here are some "real" photos of our studio with the new grey walls!! We are really loving the color - there's something really cozy about the front room that I just love now. We took these photos to show off the new color ... and ... (drumroll please) to be featured in PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER MAGAZINE in April!! Because of the overwhelming success that PPA has seen from home studios across the nation, they chose 5 to profile in the upcoming issue. We were truly honored to be chosen ... and of course super excited! Hopefully we will be able to get our hands on several copies ;)
