McKinley's 6 month maternity session

6 months down, and 3 to go!  McKinley will be shooting another session with us in a few months. We are blessed to be able to have shot this mini-session with her. We did all this in about 10 minutes of actual shoot time. She's also a wonderful person!

   This was officially THE coldest photo shoot I have ever done. I don't know the temp, but it was ...... c-o-l-d.  It was quite windy also, which made things very skin-chilling. It's hard to tell by looking at the photos though, but it was freezing!  We are now in the middle of a super-duper cold snap in the nation.

   So enjoy the photos, and some very blue eyes!  I mentioned the other day that I would be blogging more this year. Here we go...blog #2 of the year, and we are still in the first week.  To see more of my work, visit my website by clicking  HERE.

Ashley's maternity session + Peyton.

I'm back.  It is time to start blogging regularly again. I've done very little blogging since April 2012.  I have been shooting a lot, but not posting much at all.  But now, I resume...

   This is Ashley and Peyton. They are expecting their first baby in December. I have a special place in my heart for maternity photos. I don't know why, but I find them very beautiful. I hope to do much more of this in the future. I photographed the wedding of Peyton and Ashley this past year at our own church.   I love this young couple!

  Enjoy the photos. Spread the word, if you know of anyone else who may be expecting. We plan to do a lot of this type of work, as well as continuing our weddings and family/lifestyle photography.

Zach + Tiffany engaged

OK, I have seriously been MIA on my blog this year!  Some self discipline is in order.  ((smack))

This post is a showcase of a wonderful couple who lives near to me. Meet Zach and Tiffany!  We did some serious backwoods trail blazing to get to the location you see here. We had a great adventure of a time doing this, and we were thrilled with the results.

Kevin + Kim married

Finally I am back in blogland! This is a quick blog to show off a little bit of Kevin and Kim's wedding in Lawrenceburg, TN. This wedding was very unique, as you can see in the photos. The ceremony took place at the historic Crockette Theatre. Yes it's an old classic movie theatre. What great time we had, and I will never forget this one for sure. Thanks Kevin and Kim for the opportunity to photograph your amazing wedding. My website can be seen HERE.

Erin + Matt -- Little wedding in the park

This is a very recent wedding I shot. Although I have older work I want to blog soon, I couldn't resist throwing a few of these up on the blog quickly. I love little outdoor weddings.

Erin and Matt were married in Clarksville last Friday. One of my second shooters, Shellene, captured the last photo of this blog. It was a surprise wedding guest. He had 4 legs, and was very happy for the new couple! He just came running out of nowhere to greet them after the ceremony.

Thanks Matt and Erin for the great day.

Ken +Joy's wedding by the lake.

Ken and Joy were married October 1st, and the weather was very cooperative for an outdoor wedding by the lake. The ceremony took place under a huge gazebo. I came to know Ken and Joy when I shot the wedding of Joy's nice, Amanda, earlier in the year in June. Soon, in November, I will be shooting the wedding of Amanda's sister Andrea. I know the family fairly well by now, and I feel like a family friend.

This time of year is always my busiest, and I'm usually lucky to get any time for blogging in the autumn months. I'll hopefully be back on track with more blogs ASAP. For now, enjoy the new photos!

Kevin + Lauren get married.

Married at lakeside, out in a rustic area, and how beautiful it was! Whispering Pines in Summertown to be exact. June 4th, 2011. Lauren's color palette for her wedding was perfect. Her bouquet, as well as other floral details was a perfect fit for the location...and for her. What a beautiful bride. What a special group of people.

The happy new couple escaped via pontoon boat, and I'm in love with those photos! A send-off with bubbles and a boat is always a photographer's dream.

I honestly love what I do, and feel so honored every single time I get to photograph the wedding of a new couple. This is their big day, and the wedding will always be remembered through the images I captured. What an honor, and responsibility! Thank you Lauren and Kevin.

Adam + Theresa's wedding.

May 7th, 2011. Adam and Theresa were married in a beautiful backyard ceremony in Brentwood. I Wanted to share a few photos with you from this event. I think they convey the sense of the day's events. I love outdoor weddings!
I'm right in the middle of peak wedding season, so more blogs to come as soon as I have time, which is in short supply lately. Lots of outdoor weddings for me this year. Yeah, it's a heat wave lately, and I usually wear black. I still love what I do.
