When I got the call to photograph a lifestyle fashion shoot for my friends at Tractor Supply to be featured in WWD, I immediately thought back to my college fashion merchandising classes at The University of Alabama, where my classes required a daily subscription to the actual paper version of WWD. Never did I imagine back then that 1. I would be a photographer and 2. I would have my work featured in this iconic fashion publication. Experiences like this remind me to keep encouraging my own kids to build relationships with good people, dream big and chase those dreams. This was a fun project. (And side note, the blonde is my bride Kristen, who kindly agreed to model for us the week of her wedding here in Nashville.)
