Mary Ella Chicorelli

Mary Ella and her mother, Amy, came by the house today for morning photo shoot. Mary Ella was such a little sweetheart. We spent a little over an hour playing in the sun room and out in the yard. She was the perfect subject! Here are a few images from the session.

Jennifer & Matt

I had the pleasure of photographing Jennifer and Matt's wedding this past Saturday at Cedar Grove Mansion in Vicksburg, Mississippi. It was absolutely gorgeous. The weather was perfect, and the grounds of Cedar Grove were incredible.

Congrats, Mr. & Mrs. Byrd !

Delta Arts Alliance

The Delta Arts Alliance is one of the most exciting new things to happen in the Delta in a long time. After years of hard work, patience, and faith in the mission, it looks like this project is off the ground for good. The renovation of the old Ellis Theater in Cleveland is well underway, and even without a strong home base, this group has worked tirelessly to provide art education in over 20 our public schools. The state cut funding for arts education a few years back, and if it weren't for the work of groups such as the Delta Arts Alliance, the youth of the Delta would nt have such a valuable part of education.

I had the privilege today of helping Mary Margaret Roark create her headshots for the upcoming Miss Teen Mississippi USA pageant. The event will be held June 13-16 in Vicksburg, Mississippi. Good luck Mary Margaret ! We can't wait to see you in the national event in August.

a beautiful Saturday morning

I spent a little over an hour yesterday with the family of one of my
favorite people--Pat Tibbs. Her newest granddaughter Rachel was
being christened later in the day, and since most of here family was
going to be around she wanted to get a few photos to remember the
day. I always have a great time with the Tibbs, and their kids are
so much fun!
