Abby & Max’s Engagement Photos
Tuesday, April 6th, 2010It was a beautiful Easter Sunday to take some engagement photos for Abby and Max, who will be getting married as Scarritt Bennett on New Years Eve this year. We started the session at the Bicentennial Mall, and shot around the state capital building. We finished up the session back at my studio to work on shots in a very different style and look.
It was wonderful working with you guys and I’m looking forward to your wedding in December!
Terrie and Troy’s Wedding
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009I was thrilled and honored to be chosen as Terrie and Troy’s photographer for their wedding at the beautiful Hermitage Hotel here in Nashville. Terrie is a corporate events planner, and she devoted all of her talents and expertise into making her own big day run smoothly. I was also thrilled that my good friend Kay Anderson was able to join me and contribute his unique perspective to the imagery.
One of my favorite moments from the day was Terrie and Troy’s first look. They first saw each other out on the veranda where their ceremony was soon to be held, with Troy waiting at the end of the aisle for Terrie to make her appearance. Kay caught the moment of Terrie’s first glance through the window panes as she entered the room, with her expression framed perfectly. Its a wonderful piece of photojournalism. When Terrie reached midway down the aisle, she briefly turned to show Troy the back of her dress, and I chose that moment to represent my view of the proceedings. You can see the pride on Troy’s face, combined with the joy visible in Terrie’s expression.
Another favorite moment was Terrie and Troy’s moment alone just after the ceremony, on the mezzanine above the Hermitage Lobby. You can’t pose a moment like that.
Thank you to Terrie and Troy for making me a part of your day!

Jessica & Josh’s Engagement
Saturday, November 7th, 2009We did this engagement session in two parts: on the first day we drove down to Fall Creek Falls to get some great fall colors and beautiful vistas… but between us we decided that rather than pursuing the second part of the session when we were tired from a long drive, we’d do part two on another evening.
Josh is a photographer himself, and actually proposed by painting his proposal with light on a long-exposure night shot. How cool is that? So we decided that we should incorporate some night photography into their engagement photos as well. We did part two of the session in downtown Nashville last night, and got some really stylish pictures of the two of them. I love the shot where Jessica is pulling on Josh’s tie, because it captures some of her feisty personality (woe betide you if you’re a tardy Cracker Barrel server!!!).
Daniele & André’s Engagement Session
Saturday, February 7th, 2009Daniele and André chose to have their engagement photos taken on the Shelby Street Bridge and in downtown Nashville. The bridge can be a bit of a challenge, because MANY photographers and couples have used it for their portraits: it can be challenging to find something different there. However, I was pleased with the results of this session, in large part because Daniele and André did a great job of loosening up and having fun while I was taking their picture.
