I posted a before & after photo combination on facebook earlier in the week and it seemed to rouse up a lot of interest.  So I whipped up a few unedited vs. edited photos to show. Post-processing is (first of all) very fun! And it’s so important! I know it’s a huge time consumer and [...]

This month marked my first year anniversary for supporting myself solely through photography.  (!!!!!!!) At some point I’ll tell you how I got started in photography, but for today, I’m showing some images from my first rolls of film (7 years old) and celebrating the fact that for one year now, this is my only [...]

If you missed the first part of Kristen & John’s wedding, check it out here. And now up is the final chapter of their lovely day. Thank you to the Black Horse Inn for running such a beautiful venue! Thank you weather for holding up! Thank you to both Kristen & John’s family members and [...]

There are going to be a lot of familiar faces in this blog post. First of all, the bride and groom: Kirsten and John were featured in this blog post with their engagement photos.  We had tooled around Chespeake Bay, Maryland and Woodbridge, VA for their engagement photos, and then I headed to Warrenton, VA [...]

Chancey and Micah, also known as Clancey and Michael, had an awesome wedding in downtown Cleveland, TN.  (You might remember them from their engagement session this summer.) They were married at First Presbyterian Church (what a beautiful interiour!) and their reception was at the Old Woolen Mill. Let me explain the “Clancey & Michael” name [...]

It was a grey, pearly looking day outside and the weather was far too warm for what is expected in January.  My friend Ally and I decided to meet up, get coffee, and just drive to wherever the car took us. I wanted to shoot some personal photos (I really don’t do that enough) and [...]

As mentioned in Part One of Stacie Ann & Nic’s wedding post, we had an entire hour after the ceremony and before the reception for bride & groom portraits. It was amazing!!! We drove over to this awesome abandoned house and shot all around it.  The first part of this post is those portaits. What [...]

Stacie and I “met” on myspace years ago. She said that when she got married, she wanted me as her wedding photographer (which, looking back on my wedding photos from back then, was a BIG compliment!).  Early October 2011, I finally had the huge honour of flying out to Elm Creek, Nebraska to be Stacie [...]

You might remember Lindsay and Chris from their downtown Chattanooga engagement session I posted a bit ago.  The day after their engagement session, Chris and Lindsay were married at Grandview up on Lookout Mountain. (Sidenote about Grandview: what an amazing venue to get married at!!– great aesthetics, amazing people running it, and over-all a quaint, [...]

Arlyne VanHook (the beautiful lady on the left down there) is my favourite photographer back in Cleveland, TN.  She’s an awesome photographer and an incredible lady. I feel so honoured that I’ve had the chance to make her family portraits twice now!  The VanHook family are so much fun to be around! Thank you so [...]
