Copelin Wedding | Arkansas Wedding Photographer

Good Afternoon Friends,

As i promised ; I have another Pratt Place Barn and Inn Wedding for you.  I photographed two Weddings back to back ( Friday and Saturday ) at Pratt Place but they were both so different.  Hailey and Joe’s Wedding Ceremony took place in the field outside of the barn ; with the reception in the barn.  Our Friday Wedding was a night Wedding while our Saturday Wedding was a day Wedding.  We had such a blast shooting at Pratt Place Barn and Inn.  If your a newly engaged couple shoot me an email and give me a chance to sell you on our Special Moments team.  For our Friday Wedding our team was Janie and I.  On Saturday my 2nd shooter was our amazing friend and associate Tara.  Tara and I had a blast working this amazing Wedding at Pratt Place while Janie and Kerissa were working another Wedding in Fort Smith, Ar.  I have to give Tara some credit.  It’s not often i do this but i’m gonna admit that Tara just might have out shot me on this Wedding ceremony.  Nice work T, Thanks for being a part of the team!

Let’s start it off with a few detail shots……….

Here’s a few from me. I was working my wide angle lens and my favorite 50mm lens.  While Tara was working the zoom lens.  I think we photographed this ceremony with a total of 4 lenses…….

These two were from Tara’s camera….. man she was working those angles…….southern wedding pictures, pratt place barn wedding photography, arkansas wedding photographer_0200

If your paying attention you know this shot is from me.  I stayed in the same spot and switched lenses….while tara was working the angles from side to side. I’ve been doing this since i was 15. ( i’m 30 now. half my life thats crazy huh? ) Tara has been working with us off and on for a few years….She wins….
