Arkansas is for lovers! Bluffs, rivers, mountains, woods, waterfalls and prairie, there are so many breathtaking locations to stage an engagement photography shoot—or to capture a surprise proposal. Tyler and Rebekah Thompson, the Harrison-based husband-and-wife team behind Arrow Works Co. photography, know best how to help couples announce an engagement with photos taken in romantic nature. Their passion for photography directly correlates with their love of adventure, which has found them living in Alaska as well as rock climbing and hiking in Arkansas—the couple love to travel and share stories as much as they love to snap pictures. “Telling stories is our passion,” the Thompsons proclaim, and their photographs are nothing if not passionate. Here are some of their favorite locations in North Arkansas to take client couples for engagement photography sessions.
