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!

Styled shoots are truly some of my favorite events to photograph! It’s a great time to get creative without the stress of a wedding day timeline. Melissa Baskette, of Melissa’s Vintage Details, invited a few photographers (including myself) out to the Millstone venue in Limestone, Tennessee to photograph a styled shoot solely dedicated to details! I love photographing couples, don’t get me wrong, but it was also super nice to have a whole shoot focused and dedicated to decor and details so that I could really hone in on those skills! Melissa had multiple setups with many amazing vendors that collaborated on each one.

I’m a part of a wonderful local networking group full of creative entrepreneurs called TuesdaysTogether! Thanks to our community, I was lucky to meet Tricia Mosier of Elizabeth Dean Styled Events, who invited me to take part in a one-of-a-kind styled shoot that she was putting together! We all gathered at the beautiful Homestead on the Holston, a historic cabin venue with lots of land next to the north fork of the Holston River, and photographed the set ups that Tricia had designed— a “Notebook” canoe, a picnic blanket dinner, a bridal chair, and a bohemian tee pee complete with hanging cake display! Definitely a shoot for the record books and one you won’t want to miss!
