My wife on film

admin — Tue, 11 Sep 2012 23:15:57 +0000

I acquired a new camera, one that takes film. Recently, there has been a group of photographers in town that have switched from digital to film, and my curiosity finally got the best of me and I jumped in. Luckily, I have the perfect model who is always on call – my wife. She graciously accepted my request to model for me and here are the results.

Rachel and Patrick | Centennial Park & Downtown Nashville

admin — Thu, 28 Jun 2012 12:00:52 +0000

If you asked me to sum up Rachel and Patrick with one word, it would have to be fun. You can easily see how in love they are, but more importantly, how easily they make each other laugh. Not only can Patrick make Rachel giggle on cue, the man has some serious ups! (scroll down to see) Here are a few of my favorites from their session:

Ashley & David | Radnor Lake & Greer Stadium

Ashley and David are a couple of lovebirds. Their story is sweet and unique. David was calling businesses introducing his company’s services when low and behold ,the girl he’d one day marry answered the phone. They had a instant connection over the phone and the rest is history. David loves all things football and hockey. Ashley is an amazing cook and collects plates. These two radiate love. For their engagement session, we started at Radnor Lake – a place the couple frequents often. From there, we went to downtown Franklin, then lastly to Greer Stadium.

Samantha and Keith | Kings Chapel & The Parthenon

What a perfect wedding day. We started at the Parthenon where everyone met before taking a short ride out to King’s Chapel for the ceremony. King’s Chapel is an intimate, rustic, romantic, historic chapel located in Arrington, TN. They even had their friend Ruston Kelly serenade them down the aisle. After the ceremony, we headed back to the Parthenon where the real party began!

Ruby | Open House

Have you heard of Ruby yet?! Its the newest,rustic-chic venue in Nashville, located right across from Vanderbilt University on Blakemore. Dan Cook headed an amazing effort to restore/reconstruct the building (formerly a primitive Baptist church) and I daresay he hit a home run! Thank you to all the amazing vendors who made the event a huge hit. Especially, Leigh Barker from A Delightful Day for organizing this perfect night.

Heather and Michael | Eastwood Christian Church

Heather and Michael’s wedding day was superb! Heather and I started the day at the Hermitage Hotel in downtown Nashville where I was greeted by her mother and sister. We then headed over to the ceremony site at Eastwood Christian Church. The night ended at Maggiano’s with their closest friends and family. Congratulations!

Super (Perigee) Moon | Nashville, TN

admin — Sun, 20 Mar 2011 04:12:55 +0000

Since the Moon only comes this close to the Earth once every 18 years or so, I had to take a picture of it! Pssst – dont worry Moon, I always think you are super!

Jason and Amanda | The Cathedral of the Incarnation

Jason and Amanda were wed on a beautiful springlike January day at the Cathedral of the Incarnation. Their intimate celebration included their closest family and friends, along with an abundance of love and laughter. The couple shared their first look before the ceremony in the beautiful Cathedral courtyard– a meeting charged with emotion that brought me to tears– (I loved this moment so much I animated it so that I could relive it a bit!). Following their nuptials, the two joined the afternoon reception at Fleming Center. The room was decorated with flowers from Brocade designs in spring pastels, and the vessels were all family heirlooms– including pieces from Amanda’s mom’s collection as well as her own. Guests enjoyed a bluegrass band playing classic favorites as the kids gathered around the cake with open, wondrous eyes. All in all– an afternoon not soon to be forgotten. Congratulations, Jason and Amanda!

Jason and Amanda | Vanderbilt’s Campus

Since Jason and Amanda met on Vanderbilt’s campus, it seemed fitting that we shoot their engagement session where their love blossomed. As a little homage to her grandmother, Amanda wore her grandmother’s wedding dress. It was a vintage blue suede dress with gold floral accents. As we strolled around the campus, Jason informed that it is actually a national arboretum – a random fact that I found quite interesting. Although it was a little cold outside, the session was a blast! Their wedding was this past weekend and I look forward to sharing those amazing images – soon!
