Rose Mont Gallatin, TN Wedding Photographer | Joey & Tyler {Wedding}

I don’t think I can put it into words how much I loved this wedding!! I have had the most amazing weddings this fall, and I am so thankful for all of them! When I heard last winter that Joey had gotten engaged, I could not be more excited!! We have been family friends for our entire life.  We have grown up together going to gymnastic meets, church trips, and family trips.  Feeling thrilled was an understatement when she wanted me to be a part of her day. So many people have been anxiously waiting this day, and I hope that these pictures retell the story beautifully of Joey and Tyler’s big day!  It was so amazing!!

Their wedding was at Rose Mont Mansion in Gallatin, TN.  I had not been here before and it was beautiful!  They had their wedding on the front porch right at sunset, and we could not have asked for a more perfect day.  Joey & Tyler opted to have a First Look, and it was amazing to witness! Both had time to be emotional, and just be with each other for a moment.  What an amazing way to start your wedding day! We then went ahead with all the pictures! We start with just Joey and Tyler, then bridal, party, and finally family.  After lots of laughter and some tears during the ceremony, we headed out to Blue Grass Yacht & Country Club for their reception.  And this wedding party knew how to party and dance!!! It was so fun to photograph their wedding and did not have  a single dull moment!  The dancing shots at the end are some of my favorite reception shots ever!! A special thanks to Chip Sprague for assisting and shooting with me on this Saturday! He got some amazing shots!

Enough rambling:)Take a look at *MANY* of my favorites!!

Nashville & Lebanon, TN Bridal and Wedding Photographer | Joey {Bridals}

I say it everytime:)I love bridal sessions.  We almost didn’t get to do Joey’s bridals, due to the nasty rain we had ALL DAY LONG.  At the last second, we changed venues and got some amazing shots under cover, as well as it quit raining for about the last 10 minutes.  So we got to get out in the green grass! I have has these images ready to blog for about 2 months now, and so excited to share the beautiful Joey today!  Look for the full wedding blog post early next week!

Lebanon & Nashville, TN Wedding Photographer, Lebanon First United Methodist Church | Karla & Aaron {Wedding}

Oh September, how I love you so!  And boy is it super busy with lots of weddings and family sessions!  Karla and Aaron got married on September 15, 2012, with a traditional church wedding and a stunning outdoor reception.  We had the most amazing weather for an outdoor wedding reception, and it tied the whole day together just perfectly! Aaron and Karla both live in Arizona, but Karla’s family lives here.  They made the trip back home to share their “I do’s” with their closest family and friends! When it was time to do wedding pictures, after the ceremony, with just Karla and Aaron, I could not stop smiling.  These two just melt into one another, and were so happy! I am so glad that I got to be apart of their amazing wedding day! Take a look at my favorites!!

Thanks Karla & Aaron! It was such an amazing day!  I wish you both the best! Hopefully y’all will get back this way soon!

Lebanon & Nashville, TN Senior Photographer | Elizabeth {Seniors}

Today on this beautiful, fall day, me and my husband are headed to Gatlinburg for the next 3 days.  He has to speak at a work conference tomorrow morning, so I am headed over there with him for a little getaway!  Planning on doing a little shopping while I am there while he has to work! Which is just fine by me! So I will be a little out of pocket the next 3 days with only my phone to respond to emails, but will respond as soon as I can! But Friday is my birthday, so taking the WHOLE day off! For now, take a look at one of my most recent sessions!

Last month I got the amazing chance to meet Elizabeth and her mom Leah for our downtown Nashville Senior Session.  We had amazing weather, and such a fun time! When I shoot in downtown, I love trying new places to shoot, and Elizabeth was up for anywhere for our senior session.  Take a look at some of my favorites!

Lebanon & Nashville, TN Family Photographer | Blair {Personal}

It has almost been a month since my last visit with my sister and my niece.  Usually, right about now, is when it starts.  They have been gone long enough that my heart actually aches for them.  I know that sounds silly.  They only live in Florida (and what a great place to visit!), but days like this, they might as well live in Switzerland! Ok, that is a little dramatic, but today, it feels like that. 

I miss watching my husband play and love her! And I love Blair getting so excited to see “Uncle!”

I miss playing with Silly Blair, I want to play with our bubbles outside, I want to run wild and make silly faces.
I want to see my little duck grow, learn, and play.

And I want to capture more moments of love between her and her sweet mama:)

I want to bribe her with cookies so she will stand still long enough for me to get a picture!

I am so thankful for my time with her and my sister, but I wish it was so much more.  I want to have lunch dates, shopping dates, play dates, and slumber parties! And we will do all these things, just not as often as I would like to do them.

I am also so happy that I have such an amazing friend that offered to take some pictures of ME and Blair! Since I am behind the camera, we have very few pictures of us together.  Thanks to my friend, Chesley, I will cherish these forever.  I simply love my moments with her, and I am so thankful Chesley captured them for me! 

September 14, 2012 - 9:22 am

Jill - SO PRECIOUS! Blair is such a cutie. Susan and Greg make cute kids :) Love the ones of her with the bubbles, she looks so excited.

September 14, 2012 - 10:01 am

Rebecca Walker - Thanks Jill! I just could not be more in love with her! And she loves her bubbles :)

September 14, 2012 - 1:26 pm

Lucy Lee - These make me smile and cry at the same time. I can hear her saying ” My bubbles”!
