Holy cow, I love so much about these two. From their laid-back personalities to Rachel's uber-classic style (and beauty). I am also pretty much in love with their venue. They got married at Bluebird Hill and instead of the normal garden area, they chose to have the ceremony up on top of the hill. Just perfect in every way. Chad made the awesome, rustic wooden cross and I lovelovelove her flowers by Sassafras. Enjoy and Happy Tuesday!
I hope you are all sitting down, because what follows is what happens when you let your associate blog her own wedding... TONS and TONS of photos. She said she was having a hard time narrowing it down, so I could just weed some out, but honestly, I just couldn't!! She tells the story perfectly I think, from the sweet, sweet ceremony at Samary Plantation in Nashville to the tons of DIY details to the amazing flowers by Melissa Timm. I've also got to say a huge thanks to my second for the day... Kayla of Kayla f photography. It was just like old times getting to have her around for the day.
Venue: Samary Plantation - Nashville

Goodness, gracious... I can't think of anything more fun than a day at the fair. I'm going back a couple of months for this one, but I just couldn't let another week go by without sharing it. I've known Kayla for YEARS! I mean, we go way, way back. So, naturally, I was SO EXCITED when she asked me to shoot her wedding next year and to do her engagement photos this fall. First thing you should know... Kayla has amazing style. The girl doesn't leave the house without perfect hair, flawless makeup and adorable clothes. Which makes her so much fun to shoot (well, that and her slightly dramatic nature). ;) Second, when they asked me if I'd mind shooting at the fair, I jumped up and down! I love shooting the fair... with all of its colors, smells, quirky people and tasty food, it's sensory overload! And I can't help it... i just LOVE photos with other people in them. Just makes a shoot feel so romantic, like, who cares about all these other folks?... I choose YOU... over and over and over, I'd still choose YOU. xoxo
You may remember Cassie and Bennett from a few posts back. They had the super lovely backyard wedding back in June. Well... now we would like to share the rest of their celebration.

Here we go!! The latest installment of our weekly peek onto our computers and into our current edit sessions. So, this week, we are sharing just a few from Ward and Judy's wedding we shot back at the end of August. We've got a bit of a theme for this one. Ward's dad had this AMAZING Thunderbird restored and they got to drive it from the church to the reception. Well, naturally, I fell plumb in love. Are you KIDDING?? An aqua vintage Thunderbird?? Seriously, my dream car! So, I decided to share a bunch of the photos I took with the car. Some of them are while driving down Kingston Pike (I really, really hope my mom doesn't read this... I'll definitely be getting a lecture about safe driving if she does!) and those are my uber-favorites!! I also wanted to share a few from the end of the night. Ward and Judy's get-away vehicle was his ski boat... so I took a few shots of them on the boat downtown and then met them back at their house to finish up on the docks. Judy, I SWEAR I took photos not involving modes of transportation, these were just too awesome not to blog. ;) -J
In honor of the blazin' hot weather... I thought I'd take this opportunity to cool down a bit with a couple of sweet winter weddings. In all honesty, I waited and waited this "winter" for a chance to blog them while it was still cool outside, but it the crazy weather just jumped straight into spring in oh, February. So... anyhow, Meet Jessie and Craig. I think this was the only cold day we had all season long... but everything about their wedding was perfect... from her INSANELY beautiful dress to the flowers by the fabulous Sam Franklin. And I love, love, love Maple Grove as always.
I promised Anna and Garrett and little sneak peek before I left town on Wednesday, but just like EVERY other time I go out of town, I didn't manage to quite finish up everything. So, here I am from the great state of New York... I brought a harddrive with me just so I could upload a few of my favorite pics for them! I'm going to expand this post to the full wedding blog in the next week or so, but until then, here are just a couple of my favorites. {Don't worry Anna, no crying pics yet... those'll come with the next round - hehe}
