I can't wait to photograph this awesome couple;s wedding later this year. Rachel and Cory are a super sweet couple and I really enjoyed getting to spend the day with them. They get extra cool points for braving the 90 degree heat. We started the shoot at Union Station because it was shaded and also happens to be the place they are having their wedding. We then headed around downtown Nashville and finished up around Steeple Chase. Cory is a golfer so we ended the shoot on the golf course. I had to chase down a teenager who was apparently very confused by my request to borrow his putter for a few photographs. The awkward interaction was well worth the results. Rachel isn't very good at golf but I'm confident she will get better with a few more lessons from her future husband.
Madison + Jeremy = Wonderful Chattanooga Wedding
I've had a lot of fun getting to know Madison + Jeremy. I think Chattanooga is beautiful so I was excited about photographing their wedding at Camp Dixie. I was also excited to hear that Madison had been working on her "smize" (smiling with your eyes). Personally, I think she nailed it. We started the day at Madison's mom's salon. Her mom did her hair which I thought was pretty awesome. I asked how many times she had done her hair and they couldn't even begin to count. Their ceremony was held under a giant tree overlooking the water. The tree reminded me of my favorite childhood story "The Giving Tree." Everyone was so fun and enjoyable to be around which made for a really laid back day of shooting. I also got to meet Michael who follows my blog, was shooting video for the wedding, and is a great photographer. He photographed a wedding at Camp Dixie a few weeks before and helped me out with some of the best locations. Madison + Jeremy congrats on your new life together. I am so excited for you guys!

Did I mention that they are Custom Design! That means nobody else in the world is going to be using your invitation template. You are one of a kind and your wedding invitations should be too. Jill and her husband Logan are really good friends and are also the most talented graphic designers that I know.

Biz + JP Beautiful Nashville Wedding
I have really enjoyed getting to know Biz and JP over the past year. Their wedding was so beautiful and it was obvious they put a lot of thought into the small details and had a great team that brought it all together on the big day. The ceremony and reception were in Leipers Fork, TN which is the site of my future 20 acre farm home....one day. In my opinion it is the most beautiful part of middle Tennessee. I was really blown away by the reception site. Another exciting part of the reception was the Photo Booth that we set up. If any of my couples are interested in having a photo booth at your reception shoot me an email. The photos speak for themselves. Congrats Biz + JP!
