Lauren & Jonathan's Wedding

Lauren & Jonathan's wedding was our last wedding for 2007! It was the perfect end to a year of amazing weddings. The whole day went smoothly and the bride was one of our most calm and poised, not to mention drop dead gorgeous!

The groomsmen were absolutely hilarious! John and I were laughing so hard that it was difficult to take pictures.

Even though the weather was cold and rainy, we managed to get a few awesome outside shoots!

The wedding reception was at the Chattanoogan Hotel in downtown Chattanooga and it was beautiful. Lauren and Jonathan mingled with their friends and family and truly danced the night away!

The music was incredible! Phillip from Soundforce did outstanding job getting people out of their seats and onto the dance floor.

In closing, we would like to say thank you to the Wood and Little families for letting us be a part of such a wonderful day. We wish both families a blessed holiday season.

Jeremy + Sarah

We have all been waiting for this day for such a long time!
Jeremy and Sarah have been dating...well, it seems like FOREVER! John & I have had the privilege watching their relationship grow. Three years ago, we began congregating on Wednesday evenings to eat and hang out. So Jeremy, with his jokes and stories, and Sarah with her unparalleled pranks and antics have kept us well entertained for...well, three years!
Recently, John and I had not only the honor of photographing their wedding, but also participating, as I was a bridesmaid.

The day was so perfect! Sarah wore her cowboy boots (a gift from Jeremy) as her 'something blue.' She wore her grandmother's earrings as her 'something old,' and all of us girls, with the help of Nicole, made our own bouquets. Sarah and her family had decorated the church gymnasium for a full week, and it truly looked like a Winter Wonderland.

All of these little details made their day so unique and special.

Jeremy & Sarah, thanks for your friendship, and for bringing encouragement and humor into our lives. We wish you all the best, and are confident that you'll never have a dull moment!

Katie and Will's Wedding

It was such an honor to be a part of Katie & Will's wedding on Saturday. The whole day was so relaxed and beautiful. Every detail was perfectly designed to fit their personalities. The ceremony was held at Lookout Mountain Presbyterian and there were so many great locations to take pictures. The Fairyland Club was a perfect location for their reception; since she was a child, she played and climbed on the nearby rocks. The couple exited their reception in a family heirloom: a classic Buick Skylark that served as a honeymoon getaway vehicle for all of Katie's Family over the past 30 years. Katie & Will, we wish you all the best as you begin your like together!

the other side of the camera

While in Boston this week, my brother J.R. took Lindsey and I out to some scenic spots in Beacon Hill. Acorn Street (a small alley that's one of the most photographed streets in the nation, as well as the Duck Pond, which inspired 'Make Way for Ducklings' were both great locations.
We got to experience being on the other side of the camera, and it was a nice change of pace to be a subject for once! Thanks, J.R. for braving the cold!

getting to Boston

We've been so excited about visiting my brother J.R. and his wife Tricia in Boston for Thanksgiving. Here are some images from our journey yesterday.
Our new wide-angle lens makes Delta's seating area seem...slightly more spacious.
Lindsey was her usual gangsta self (this diva's not a fan of the earbuds). I'm a Sudoku player, and loved this still-life on my tray.

Kissing Cousins!

We photographed some cute kids on Friday. They truly are kissing cousins. We could not pass up the opportunity to put this on the blog.

The Sneed Family

We had the privilege of photographing some of my family last week. Due to some scheduling conflicts, we almost missed the beautiful leaves. However, the timing was perfect. It makes it so special when you get to photograph your own family!

Maria + Nathan's Engagement

We had a wonderful time hanging out with Maria and Nathan.
The weather forecast was calling for showers, but we decided to chance it!
We met in the Fort Wood area and then headed out for the Walnut Street Bridge. The bridge is a very special place for them because that is where they got engaged!
Although it began to rain, we managed to get some really cute shots under their umbrella!
Maria and Nathan, thanks for being so amazing to work with!

Jennifer + Jeff

We took a beautiful drive up to Knoxville on Sunday to photograph Jennifer & Jeff's engagement session. It was so great to finally meet them both! Up to this point, we have done most of our planning via telephone and email. However, we had the privilege of meeting Jennifer's mother, Jolene, while we were in Knoxville for another wedding a few weeks ago.
We met at Volunteer Landing which is a beautiful place on the water. Our friend and fellow photographer, Bill Waldorf, recommended the spot! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Jennifer, Jeff, & Jolene! Here is a sneak peek! Enjoy.
