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?

They used one of my wedding shots on the front page of their holiday card. One of my all time favorite wedding shots, ever.

Thank you Kerri, for giving me credit on the holiday card! Muchos Gracias.

I've been getting alot of inquiries these days asking when I'm NOT booked so that's such a compliment! I just updated my schedule to post for everyone to see at fair game.

Remember, whoever puts down the deposit first gets me photographing!

Have a happy holiday y'all and THANK YOU so much again for all the amazing support. I am so lucky to be where I am now with my business. I keep dreaming bigger and continue to improve year by year.

A few weeks ago, a dear friend of mine - Kerri Clark, emailed me asking if we'd be around this past weekend for her and her husband, Charles to come into town to visit and do a photo session. "YES!" I answered because I love their company. They're such a fun loving couple who can do pretty much anything around town.

She emailed me again and had such a fantastic idea that she wanted to incorporate into the photo shoot when she did it. It still breaks my heart that they had to go through this ordeal and this blog entry she put together with my photos and their story - is nothing but inspirational. Life itself is fragile and we have to always remember to cherish every moment of it. I am so inspired by Kerri and Charles and their bravery with the loss of their daughter.

Click on this link and it'll take you to their story.
