Welcome Get Shot By Tate!
Since you MUST know about me...... I'll talk about what kind of photographer I am. I'm the kid who hated traditional crap. I hated the concept of doing wedding photography. I wanted to do high fashion and naked people - and that WAS IT. Fast Forward to ten + years later....... I'm doing weddings, naked people (but it's always tasteful..... or at least I think it is) and I do SOME traditional stuff. I like to think my traditional stuff is twisted. Ok, it's not traditional. Call it what you want to call it, but I don't like the WORD - traditional. My wife does. She's twisted traditional. My work is my work. I don't like rules. It's hard for me to play by the rules when I'm doing photography. I think that's what keeps it so fun for me. I tell the parents of my senior shoots that I dislike cap and gown shots (was I supposed to do that?) but I still do them because I know they love those. ;-) I think you get the drift of what kind of photographer I am. I may think I'm way more radical than I am, but let me think I'm just ubercool and not traditional. Okay?

I did photos of Jessica's brother's family last summer (they came out to Baton Rouge from Lake Charles) and Jessica liked them so much, she contacted me to set up a session for her and her husband, Chad. I AM flattered that people would drive a good distance to get a session done by me - flattered!

We got so many awesome shots of Chad and Jessica! I'm posting my favorites up on here for them and you all to see. They make such a really sweet couple and you can tell in their photos.

Thanks C & J!
