According to the article, McDonald, said the company is in the middle of a planned $2.4 billion investment in capital improvements in generation, distribution and transmission projects, which began in 2014 and will run to 2017.

Those infrastructure projects include deploying improved technologies. McDonald pointed to new generators that are 30 percent more efficient than the older technology as an example of such innovations. The utility is also deploying more renewable energy, including a proposed 81-megawatt solar energy plant in Arkansas County.

A Taste of Brunch Photo Shoot | Arkansas Advertising Photographer

Are you hungry yet???

A few weeks ago, I teamed up with the creative team at P. Allen Smith, partnering with Bonnie Plants, to work on their latest issue of "A Taste of the Garden"

We photographed this issue over two days at a private home in Little Rock featuring all things brunch. I photographed a variety of items ranging from potato hash to mini pancakes to savory butters.

The brunch table setting, designed and styled by Laura Grimes, featured bright summer colors in hues of purple, green and orange. I also have to give a shout-out to Victoria Gross and her fabulous cooking skills. The chocolate and mint mini pancakes pictured below were just as tasty as it sounds.

This was probably one of my favorite photo shoots for P. Allen Smith. Food photography is easily one of my favorite things to photograph. I just love the challenges it brings. I am overwhelmingly pleased with the photos and based on the feedback I've heard, so are my clients.

Be sure to check back in the weeks to come for the next issue of "A Taste of the Garden".



The Week in Pictures: June 8-12

This past week saw mostly food photography on my calendar. It's one of my absolute favorites. Well it wasn't completely food photography. It was mostly drinks for an upcoming e-recipe book for one of my clients.

More details to come. But for now, the Week in Pictures.
