My Story:

Hi!  I’m Monica Roberts.  I have always loved taking pictures.  When I was just a little girl, my parents bought me and my sister our own polaroid cameras.  We took pictures of anything that would hold still.  Those pictures still make me laugh.  As I got older, I loved taking pictures of friends, “self-portraits”, and pictures of my travels.  Once my son was born, my love for taking pictures grew into something even bigger – a way for me to document life through all ages and stages.  Now, I have been given the opportunity to start my own business, and do what I love doing every single day.  I couldn’t pass it up! 

My Style:

I like creating images that are true to life and capturing expressions, emotions, and people as they really are.  I want to get to know my clients – their personalities, likes and dislikes, their style.  Not only does it help build a good relationship, but it helps make better pictures.  Having your portrait taken can be a rather personal experience, so I think it is very important to get you to know your photographer and trust them and their vision. 

My Loves:

I love my family.  I love my son’s sweet face.  I love destinations.  I love car rides with the windows down, and the radio up.  I love my iPhone.  I love talking, and talking, and talking.  And I love taking pictures.

My Life:

I moved around a little while I was growing up, but I have spent most of my life in Bentonville, AR.  I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism from the University of Arkansas.  While attending the U of A, I met and married the love of my life, Ben.  We decided to stay in Northwest Arkansas and make it our home.  We now have a son, Noah, who inspires me everyday.
