Erin & Luke – Romantic Downtown Engagement Session in Cookeville, Tennessee

Erin and Luke have been an item for 5 years now. After much prayer and a lot of heart searching, they made their commitment official not too long ago with a ring and a wedding plan. Luke is a tech-genius and Erin has a heart for teaching, but they both share a deep faith in God and are active in their church. When we met with these two, we instantly hit it off. Not only did we discover we have several mutual friends, but we also share a lot in common – in fact, Luke is a photographer himself! This

Amanda & Chandler – Sentimental Hometown Engagement Session in Cookeville, Tennessee

Brandon has been friends with Chandler longer than I’ve even known him. Chandler and his family have always been so good to Brandon, and to me as well. We’ve loved our friendship with him and have watched him and walked beside him through some highs and a lot of lows. When Chandler met Amanda, we were so excited to hear about her. But after Chandler was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor and had surgery to remove it, we really saw Amanda in action. She was so devoted and caring, always by his side and there for every step of

Stacie & Trey – Summer Downtown Knoxville City Engagement

Stacie & Trey travelled from their home in Atlanta all the way to Knoxville for their engagement session because of the special place the downtown area holds in their hearts. Their story began while students at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, and though they didn’t immediately hit it off, (and because Trey didn’t reply to Stacie’s message for an entire year!!), they sure have made up for it since. Last Christmas, Trey took Stacie back to the scene of their first encounter. This time, he was prepared with a plan to woo her into becoming his wife. They went

Allison & Jonathan – Fresh Summer UT Botanical Gardens Engagement

Allison and Jonathan (“Nonnie”) have been together for years. They have, in a way, grown into adulthood together. Their love goes way back and it’s been tested and has stood true. Allison found us via instagram and luckily we had an unexpected opening on their wedding day, so she started chatting with us and before we knew it we had a skype date and got to meet the family. Nonnie was about to put their ADORABLE 2-year-old down but we got to chat with him long enough to immediately like him as well as Allison. And although our photo session

Anessa & Luke – Family Farm Engagement Session in Granville, Tennessee

We had just pulled up to the wedding, and beside our car walked a bridesmaid named Anessa. She greeted us warmly, kept a smile on her face all day in the blistering June heat and was so helpful in her duties to her bride Julianne (wedding here). Luke was the groom Jake’s brother and the most loyal and loving best man we’d ever seen. He’s not afraid to show emotion, which we LOVE. After the wedding we kept up through facebook and watched as the two graduated high school and eventually got engaged. When Anessa contacted us about her wedding,

Amanda and TJ – Spring Engagement Session at Standing Stone Park

We have known about Amanda for a long while before actually getting to meet this lovely lady. She is an outgoing, incredibly caring and inspiring individual. And she has waited faithfully for her Prince Charming. Enter TJ. He is a quiet soul but a strong and loyal one. These two complement each other as opposites yet share a deep abiding faith and ability to pursue love above all else. Their story is a beautiful one of the Lord’s provision and we will share more when we blog their wedding, but right now we cannot wait any longer to share their precious engagement

Planning your Engagement Session Part 2: For the Ladies

No matter how beautiful we think our brides, every single one has an area they are self-conscious about. It’s sadly normal in our culture, and we are aware of that reality. So, here are some tricks for minimizing your areas of concern during your engagement portraits. THE BODY AS A WHOLE Choosing a flattering silhouette and colors for your body is important. It can be fun and helpful to have an honest friend guide you when it comes to choosing waistlines and silhouettes. An a-line dress is the most flattering on a majority of ladies, while a nice body-hugging dress

BJ and Abby – Cookeville Sunny Spring Engagement Session

Despite a very rainy spring, we truly lucked out with BJ and Abby’s engagement session. BJ is our nephew and we have been waiting for this sweet couple to make things official for a while now. It was a treat doing photos with them because they are so much fun. Abby choose a great location, and BJ was ready to make his bride laugh and beam with joy in their photos. Aiming for some blooms was a tough task because of several freezes after they first started to pop out, but Abby stood her ground and we are so glad

2017 Year in Review – Weddings and Engagements – Tennessee Wedding Photography

The act of choosing which images to blog from each wedding is daunting. We deliver hundreds of photos from our hours spent with each couple and when we look to share those in a way that tells a story, it can be tough to narrow those images down. And then on top of that, every year we torture ourselves with the task of showcasing the highlights of EVERY wedding and EVERY engagement session from the year. It’s so so hard, y’all! Why do we do this to ourselves? Because it’s worth it, that’s why. As tough as it is, we

Anna & Blake – Fall Engagement in old town Carthage Tennessee

We’ve known Anna for years. She’s one of those people that is easy to be with, instantly makes you feel like a friend, and makes you laugh constantly. We’d known about her boyfriend but only met him once before he proposed. We knew Anna would choose a great person to spend forever with, and our engagement session certainly was a test for this fella who doesn’t like photos AT ALL. He passed with flying colors, did all that we asked and more, and trusted us completely. The result was photos they loved, and a happy bride-to-be. Fall is a tricky
