Becky & Ben - Engagement Session





We had a great time with Becky and Ben for a fun, short engagement session. We went downtown to the Pedestrian Bridge and to LP Field where the Titans play. Both Becky and Ben are huge sports fan's especially for football so we thought this would be the best way to make it fun for them. Lori and I want to make sure we make everyone we work with feel comfortable and that they are relaxed with us. So it is always important to spend time getting to know the people you will be spending their biggest day of their lives.

Thank you so much for spending some time with us for your Engagement session! Can't wait for the wedding day!!!

McKenna & David Wedding Day!!!




Congratulations McKenna & David!! Lori and I enjoyed being apart of your special day and we are really grateful to be apart of another Saunders Family wedding. You guys are such an incredible couple and we were able to see that with your friends and family and how much people love and truly care about you.

The ceremony was held at Christ Church Cathedral in downtown Nashville off Broadway. I always enjoy being able to photograph and work in such beautiful and historic locations around town. The reception was held at a local favorite of Dave and McKenna's (Lori and mine as well) at Ellendale's. If you ever get the chance go and check out their Sunday Brunch, you should do it, one of the best in town!

Thank you again for choosing us to be your photographers!!

Lauren & Brian Wedding Day




Congratulations to Lauren and Brian!!!! You two are truly a great and fun couple. We had a wonderful time being apart of your special day. You both are very blessed to have such incredible friends and family. We wish you both the best and look forward to being friends with you for years to come.
The wedding day was so nice, bright and sunny just complete picturesque kinda day from beginning to end. We started at the Stones River Country Club where Lauren came down on the cart path to meet Brian. He was really excited and maybe a little nervous waiting as Lauren came up and tapped him on the shoulder to say "hey". Then we had time to get some great shots of them together for the first time before heading up to Belle Aire Baptist Church for exchanging of the vows followed by an incredible celebration back at the Stones River country club. Thank you for choosing us to be your photographers!

Bob & Lauren Wedding Day




Bob and Lauren are such a cool couple! They came up from Florida to elope for their wedding day so they could really get away and spend time just the two of them for their special day! How cool is that?!?! We started off meeting up with them at the Renaissance hotel in downtown Nashville. Where we spent some time getting some cool shots in the lobby before heading over to Centennial Park for the private ceremony in the sunken garden. The weather was beautiful and warm and we had a great time together with them. 

Congratulations!!!! Thanks for allowing us to be apart of your day!

Owen B - 18 Month Session

Lori and I always love working with kiddo's. However we are particularly partial to Owen since he is one of our Bride's little one. We are so lucky to have met and became friends with Tiffiny and Ross. They are incredible people and have such a sweet and loving boy. Owen has been a mover and a shaker since he turned one and it has been fun watching him grow. Can't wait to see what types of pics we get in the future!! He is one of a kind! Thanks so much for letting us photograph your beautiful child! My favorite is when he is walking back around the tree. He has such a great big smile on his face like "here I am!". Gotta love that. :-)

Lauren - Bridal Portrait Session









We had an amazing time with Lauren and her Mom for her Bridal Portrait. We started the day at Carnton Plantation in Franlin, TN where we took full advantage of the incredible day and the beautiful location. Lauren is so cool and laid back more the willing to do and try anything. It is alway fun to have someone adventurous to photograph :-).

Then we ended the day by going out to the Factory for a few shots and of course some of Brian's favorites of Lauren wearing his St.Louis Cardinals hat. She somehow stole that from him without him noticing. Good work Lauren!! I will know who to call when I want to be sneaky. Here are a couple of my favorites. Let me know what you think.

Bryan - Senior Sports Montage


Bryan D - 2011 Senior Sports Montage. This was a great way to show off Bryan's talents. Thanks Bryan for allowing me to be apart of your Senior year! Your an incredible athlete and very gifted young man. Good luck in all you do!!

Information on the print: I went to 1 football game, 3 basketball and 3 baseball for the images in this print. Plus Bryan came to the studio for the main shot and the other helmet shot (upper right). It was really a lot of fun. None of the balls or action moves were faked or photoshop'd. They are all original images with actual features. If anyone has other questions please send me a message. Thanks!
