The Pond House, Erwin, TN: A Bright + Bohemian Summer Wedding Styled Shoot in the Tennessee Mountains
Summer is in full swing over here in Northeast Tennessee and I am absolutely loving it! It has me reminiscing back on this beautiful styled shoot that I was able to organize with some of the best wedding vendors here in Johnson City, Tennessee!
Full transparency— last year, I felt myself feeling quite burnt out. It comes and goes in waves and usually when creatives are stressed out or doing things repetitively. To help fight the burnout and increase creativity, photographers will often try to get out of their normal rhythm and will shoot something for themselves or start personal projects. For me, I had never set up my own styled shoot— I had only attended ones organized and created by others. This was definitely a bit out of my comfort zone, but was such a fun experience!
The Waterstone Venue: Coco + Sam's Peachy Boho Summer Wedding
Coco and Sam were married on one of the most beautiful Summer days at one of my favorite venues in East Tennessee, The Waterstone! It might have been slightly warm and humid, but at least we made it through without any rain— and I’ll take that! They had originally planned to get married the first week of June, but like many couples, had to reschedule to late July thanks to the Covid pandemic and state regulations. Thankfully, orders lifted little by little and along with precautions, we were all able to gather and celebrate their amazing day!
Cleveland, TN: Nate + Celeste's Pink Rustic Wedding at the Apple Barn at Howe Farms
Nate and Celeste are married! These two said their vows at the gorgeous Apple Barn at Howe Farms in Cleveland, Tennessee! It may have been the only wedding this year that I haven’t had to worry about rain, for the sun was shining 100%! These two have been together since high school and has waited for this day for years.
Gettysburg, PA: Laken + Wayne's Lodges at Gettysburg Wedding
Laken and Wayne said their "I Do's" on possibly the hottest day this year (and possibly the hottest in my life), but that didn't stop them from having a beautiful day! Despite the heat, family and friends gathered at the Lodges at Gettysburg celebrated lakeside with Waynie and Laken. After the rings were exchanged and the vows were read, everyone headed to the reception all for dinner, drinks and dancing.
