Chateau Selah: Sam + Ken's Christmas and Holiday Inspired Winter Wedding

Sam and Ken had the most beautiful, holiday-inspired, winter wedding at Chateau Selah! It was a cold, blustery, winter day in Blountville, Tennessee, but at least it was sunny! The Chateau was decorated for Christmas and was so magical and cozy. With red and green florals, accents of gold, sparkling lights and candles, and plenty of pine trees and garland— these two had such a beautiful and memorable wedding day!

The Side Porch: Callie + Taylor's Dreamy Summer Wedding

These two had the sweetest and most perfect Sunday wedding in September. Taylor is in the military so they had to work with his schedule to pick their date. It was a warm day with a light breeze— my favorite! We started the day with a sweet first look by the creek and a few portraits, then made our way to their creekside ceremony. Callie and Taylor invited their closest family and friends, which made for it to be such an intimate celebration!

The Lake House: Morgan + Clint's Fall Lakeside Wedding

Morgan and Clint's wedding day at The Lake House was nothing short of breathtaking!

We lucked out with such a mild, Fall day-- it was sunny, with a slight breeze, and a touch of fall foliage! The sun drenched everything and made it so beautiful and golden! These two had previously told me that they both had fond memories of visiting the lake with their friends and family and that's part of the reason why they decided to have their ceremony lakeside! After exchanging vows and rings, and officially becoming husband and wife, Morgan and Clint exited their ceremony with confetti poppers! We then spent the golden afternoon taking portraits by the lake and headed to the reception. Morgan and Clint danced with their guests on the outdoor patio while the sun set over the lake!

Brevard, NC: Aimee + Gus' Summer Mountain Wedding at Pilot Cove

Aimee and Gus’ wedding day will always have a special place in my heart and was such a beautiful end of Summer!

These two adventurous souls became husband and wife in the heart of Pisgah Forest at the gorgeous Pilot Cove Cabins and Amphitheater. Aimee and Gus are both avid outdoor lovers and athletes. Aimee is an amazing ultra runner and Gus loves to mountain bike– so it was only fitting to exchange vows in the mountains they love surrounded by their closest friends and family. After exchanging vows and rings, and sharing their first kiss, Aimee and Gus celebrated in true Aimee and Gus fashion with a laid-back outdoor reception with plenty of wildflowers and PIZZA.

Greenville, SC: Sam + Ken's Downtown Greenville Date Night Engagement Session

Sam and Ken live in Greenville, South Carolina, and love to visit the restaurants and breweries downtown!

When we first started talking about their engagement session, we tried to think of some scenic locations nearby, as those are usually my go-to being the outdoors lover that I am. I also always love incorporating places or things that are sentimental or important to the couple— places that are significant in their journey (first date location/where they got engaged etc.) or places they love to go together. With that in mind, we decided to meet up downtown and do a little “date night,” themed session, and I absolutely loved it!

Greenwood Oaks Farm + Venue: Summer Garden, Retro Vintage and Boho Inspired Styled Wedding Shoot

Greenwood Oaks Farm + Venue is such a gem in the heart of Greeneville, Tennessee! Since their opening in 2020, they’ve been on my bucket list of venues to visit and work with! Their property is truly stunning and has so much to offer from their rustic ceremony sites, to the modern reception space, views of the mountains, flower fields, and of course, their beautiful pond!

Last year, when Meredith and Daniel (owners of Greenwood Oaks), reached out to me to see if I wanted to come together with them and Holly Davis of Menu Venue Events (amazing wedding planner and stylist) and create a fun, styled, photo shootout with local photographers, I jumped at the opportunity!

Banner Elk, NC: Holly + Tyler's Fun Summer Engagement Session in Downtown Banner Elk

Holly and Tyler are high school sweethearts and such a fun couple! They call themselves “weekend warriors,” and love taking weekend trips to the mountains to explore and get away for a few days! One of their favorite places to visit is downtown Banner Elk, North Carolina, as it’s just a hop and skip over the TN/NC border and just far enough to get away for a few days. When Holly told me about their trips, I figured it would be the best place to take their engagement photos since it’s so special to them! I cannot wait to photograph their wedding in June!
