Oklahoma City has grown so much over the last couple of years, and it has been such an exciting thing to witness. New shops, restaurants, bars, events, and organizations inspired and created by Okies has developed our area and raised the bar on local community. H&8th Night Market (Hudson & 8th St downtown) is one of these events that brings thousands of people out each third Friday to visit shops, restaurants, and food trucks, see art shows, and my favorite- watch live shows with our talented local bands.
I believe they’re done for the winter, but keep an eye out for when they start back up in warmer weather! At the last event I shot photos of my amazing friend Chelsey!

Kallie & Micah are a self-prescribed “nerdy couple” from Southern Oklahoma. The bookstore location was a perfect fit for them! Their open affection for each other made it easy to capture these sweet photos!
