The Looney Family

I have had the honor of taking photos of Rachel and Holly for many years.  Their photo shoots are always filled with lots of laughs and beautiful photos!  Holly contacted me about doing some surprise photos for her mom's birthday and I was so excited to help out.  Once again the photo shoot was filled with many laughs.  I want to wish Karen Looney a very happy birthday and I hope you loved the new photos of the girls!

This week at Creative Touch

It might have been a short week but it was a busy and fun one! Between volleyball, football, and pageants the camera is ready for a short day of rest today.

Lady Bobcat Volleyball
The Lady Bobcats volleyball teams played a home game against Midland on Thursday.  All three teams collected wins!  That always puts Coach Berry in a better mood at the end of the night.  A few things that stand out from the evening was a 12 point serving streak from Briley Henson to win set one for the Jr High team.  The senior high team was without Emma Rice who went out with an ankle sprain early in the week but she should be back on the floor this coming week.  The senior high team played great together in a new rotation and won the match in 3 sets. The Lady Bobcats will be playing away at Pocahontas on Monday and at Midland on Tuesday.  The teams will be back at home on Thursday in a big conference match with CRA.

Bobcat Football

On Friday night I traveled to Corning to shoot the Walnut Ridge vs Corning game.  The WR Bobcats got their only touchdown on a run by Martin Crisler.  Tyler Binkley followed his run with running into the end zone for the 2 pt conversion.  The Bobcats will be at home this week and the Jr Bobcats will be on the road at Rector.

Sorta neat to have a photo I took on the back of my shirt all while taking photos on the sidelines.  (photo credits to Janna Berry)

Miss River Delta & Miss NEA

Saturday morning my mom and I headed to Blytheville for Miss River Delta and Miss NEA pageants.  The afternoon started with interviews at the Holiday Inn, which is always such a great host.  The pageant was held a Blytheville High School.  It is always great to see friends made through the pageant system and meet new ones.  With the crowning of new queens you have to always let go of the ones passing the crown on.  Miss River Delta Outstanding Teen Robin Galloway and Miss Northeast Arkansas Lacey Moore did a great job representing their titles this past year, and it was such a joy to spend time with these ladies throughout the year.  Miss Northeast Arkansas Bethany Bell was unable to be with us last night due to having started her masters degree at Boston University.  Miss River Delta Jennifer Ulloa was a great representative and all while spending part of her title year in Spain.  With the close of the pageant comes the crowning of new queens.  I am excited to spend time with these young ladies this next year and I know they will do a great job representing their titles!
