I can still remember my first wedding. I was SO nervous that I don’t even think I ever actually introduced myself to the bride and groom. I was a second a photographer who had NO idea what I was doing… and looking back, it kind of shows in my images. They definitely aren’t Katelyn James quality by ANY MEANS! But… looking back… I miss it. I really do. I was there for free [because Samson told me beforehand that he didn’t actually expect to use any of my pictures], but it was just FUN. I had no pressure. I wasn’t making any money. No one was paying me. All I had to do was learn. And last week I decided I wanted to get back to that a little… No pressure. Just fun.

And so I reached out to bless one of the most selfless communities I could think of, pastors. Long story short, I reached out to Pastor Heath of River Oak Church and we ended up doing a family session that I think turned out pretty darn well! You may notice when you look through the images that there really aren’t that many pictures of the whole family. =P Yes, very true. They told me beforehand that they really wanted some good pictures of their son, and so I spent a good most of the time just focusing on getting him.
