Hiliary & Todd

Hiliary and Todd were married on September 27th, and I must say, they are one of the sweetest couples I have had the pleasure of working with. There was such a peacefulness about this day, and I know these two have a wonderful life in front of them.

If you haven't been to the website lately, I just added a few new pics and some new tunes-I must thank Hiliary for the song selections!











So the story goes, Hiliary and her friends started a tradition of putting a beta fish in the car with the bride and groom. Here's Hiliary with her new pet! I think this is hilarious!




I have sooo many pictures to post, but I just haven't had the time to pick my favorites from all the sessions I have done recently. I promise I will TRY to post as much as I can before Jude arrives. Brady counts everything in terms of "sleeps" and it's only 11 more "sleeps" until the big day! Next week is catch up week, so I should have some new things to show you before delivery day!

Elizabeth & Derrick

I am heading to Belle Meade today to shoot Elizabeth's bridal portraits. She and Derrick were married on September 26th, but Elizabeth wanted to wait until after the wedding to do the portrait, which I think is a great idea! I know we are going to have a great time during the session.

Their wedding was fabulous, and I am so honored Elizabeth and Derrick chose me to capture their special day. The ceremony was held at Wightman Chapel at Scarritt-Bennett, and the reception was held at Belle Meade Plantation. The day was orchestrated beautifully by Rachel and her team at Something Blue. The flowers and decor were done by the incomparable Mitchell White. Check out some of the beautiful highlights!






The guys were in a heated game of blackjack while waiting for the ceremony to start.




Elizabeth was nothing short of stunning. She just glowed the whole night!








The beautiful couple
















Reception highlights




Awesome lighting by Nashville Event Lighting, and beautiful cake from The Bake Shoppe.


I love this shot! Some of the guys were outside enjoying a cigar.

Blog Break

I apologize for the two week hiatus I took from blogging! Things are so busy right now trying to keep everything up-to-date before baby Jude arrives. I can't even express in words how anxious I am to have this baby! For those readers who are mothers, you can probably remember all too well how these last few weeks are. I think I should have purchased some stock in Tums...

So much has happened in the last two weeks! Elizabeth and Derrick were married, along with Hiliary and Todd and Amy and Lincoln. Congratulations to all of you! I will be posting highlights from these weddings later this week. Since school kids are out on fall break, my week has been loaded with lifestyle sessions, so I will be posting highlights from those later this week as well. But on the personal side of things, and for my first series of photos, Brady got a haircut! Check out her cuteness!

After:


She donated her hair to Locks of Love and is lovin' the new 'do. She asks me every morning if her hair has grown back. When I tell her "no," she just flashes me a big grin and says, "good!" Big thanks to Callie at Jane Rose Salon!

Klar and James were married September 20th in Cookeville. They had a beautiful wedding and a fabulous reception at Twin Oaks. Becca and I had a blast spending the evening with their wedding party and families! Thanks again Klar and James, and best of luck in your new life together!

Loved these details!






How much fun are these girls??
