Brent + Jennica

  • A Shadow Creek Wedding Events Wedding

They shared their first look and Jennica turned to Michael and I and said “You know the first time we met, Brent told me that whoever got to marry me was going to be a lucky man because I was going to be a beautiful bride.” Little did Brent know that he would end up being that lucky guy years later!! He was right, Jennica was a stunning bride! Her BHLDN dress was so classic and timeless. As soon as I saw it I started thinking of all of the portraits I wanted to do!! Their day was perfect… even with the threat of rain!

Nick + Brianna | Married

  • A Downtown Richmond Anniversary Shoot

One of the greatest joys of my business is that we have made friends with photographers from all over the world. I know friends by name in Australia, London, Hawaii, Germany, etc. It’s awesome! Years ago, I met Brianna through the KJ education world and we have been friends ever since!! I’ve always loved her sweet personality and beautiful smile. She’s so humble with her amazing work and to say she’s a bit talented is an understatement. She did coaching recently and was brainstorming a new brand and it wasn’t long before her dream was a full-fledged realty!

Friends in Franklin

  • The Gray Family | 2016

Last year we did portraits one evening for this sweet family. This year we did the same thing but there was one VERY exciting change…. sweet little London Rain!! She’s precious!! Last year she was a cute little bump and it was amazing to finally get to meet her! We have been in Franklin, TN this week for a mastermind meet-up that Zach and Jody have hosted for a second year in a row. Amy Demos and I took family portraits for these amazing friends and these portraits are literally just a small way that we try to say THANK YOU for all that Zach and Jody have done for us!
