Lebanon, TN Wedding Photographer – Carly & Jon

Carly and Jon were married a few weeks ago on a gorgeous April Sunday!  These two just radiate love, and I knew the day would be amazing!  Carly is full of contagious energy, and that along with her natural beauty equals a beautiful bride!!  They chose to get married in the afternoon, which meant we actually ended the day with photos of the two of them.  Can I just tell you awesome it is to have that freedom?!  They didn’t have anywhere to rush to be (although I’m sure they were excited to leave for their hotel:)and I knew I wasn’t missing anything else because everyone was gone!  I adore this couple and the love they have for one another!  It has been so fun getting to know them, and spending time with them over the past several months!!  Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your day!!  Much love to you guys!!

Again, I have to think my friend and second shooter Rebecca Walker!  Thanks for pulling a double header with me:)!!

Franklin, TN Wedding Photographer – Lauren & Philip

Last fall, I had the privilege of photographing Leah & Kevin’s wedding.  Leah’s twin sister Lauren had gotten engaged and I got to meet both she and her fiancé Philip at their wedding!  I was so excited when Lauren contacted me about shooting her wedding as well.  They had the absolute perfect day!  The weather was just a little bit cool, but the light, location, and company were wonderful!  Old Natchez Country Club in Franklin served as the gorgeous backdrop for the both the wedding and reception.   Lauren was a stunning bride!  I’m blogging the wedding before I blog her bridal portraits, but no worries, the bridals will be up soon as well!!  Thank you so much for trusting me to capture your wedding day, and congratulations!!

I also must give a shout out to my fabulous friend and second shooter for this wedding, Rebecca Walker.  You never cease to amaze me, and I’m so thankful that you were there to document this day!!

Thank you also to the wonderful vendors that made this day flow smoothly!!

Any Day Now – Lebanon & Nashville, TN Maternity Photographer

It’s no secret that maternity sessions are one of my absolute favorite things to shoot.  When you have a couple that is completely in love and they are also full anticipation for a little one that’s on the way, it just doesn’t get much better than that.  Leah Beth & Bryson were definitely that couple, and I LOVED their session!!  We met up on a late February afternoon, and thankfully, we were blessed with gorgeous, warmer weather!  Their little girl was actually due 3 days ago, so hopefully she’ll be making her arrival any day now, and I cannot wait to meet her!!  I hope everyone is having a fabulous week:)!!!!!

Nashville, TN Wedding Photographer – Brittany & Derrall’s Church of the Assumption Wedding

This post officially wraps up all of the wedding posts that I’m behind on from last year:)!  I was honored to shoot this beautiful wedding with my fabulous friend Rebecca Walker last August.  Brittany & Derrall’s wedding was held at the Church of the Assumption in Nashville, which provides such a beautiful backdrop for a wedding.  These two, along with their bridal parties, were such a fun bunch to spend the day around, and I’m so glad that I got to be a small part of it!  Enjoy a small glimpse into their day from my point of view!!

Lebanon & Mt. Juliet, TN Baby Photographer – Cade – 9 months old!

 Oh this sweet boy…. to say he is precious would be an understatement! He belongs to my friend, Kelli, so I get to see him more than most of my clients, and I just love him and his big brother. These boys have the best spirit (just like their parents), and are such a joy to be around. I’m so thankful that I’ve gotten to be a part of both of their first years and get to watch them grow up!! We shot Cade’s 9 mth session in about 20 minutes and still ended up with plenty to choose from. He is a ham, and gave me some pretty hilarious expressions! Love this kid!!
