Ok I am a little backlogged on blog posts so I am going to keep the words short. I did this bridal shoot for Chattanooga Magazine back on the 13th. It was a lot of fun and I am so glad I took the morning off to go down to the Hunter for the shoot. Anyway…

You might remember this couple from the engagement session I did with them a while back where we wandered around main street stopping traffic on the red art in front of the Mission. Well last weekend was their wedding!

We started at Jessie James Salon which just opened out in Hixson. Then went to Northgate Mall to Belk for makeup. The rest of the day took place at the Cross of Christ Lutheran Church. These two are so much fun and I am sure they are going to be laughing their way long into the future. Congratulations you guys. Sorry for taking so long to get this up too :S

It may seem strange but I really love being involved in the behind the scenes of weddings. Being with the bride as she is getting ready… seeing the groom wait nervously behind the doors before he walks in with the pastor… seeing the brides father look proudly at his daughter just before they walk down the aisle. I dont usually get emotional but I really do love it!

Saturday was no exception. I drove up to Knoxville on Saturday to be with Jessica and Josh celebrating their big day. There was plenty of emotion and fun. We started at the Salon Visage in downtown Knoxville in Market Square. Really cool salon with plenty of light and room to move around. Then it was off to Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church for getting ready and the ceremony. HUGE church! I thought I was lost once but just before I admitted it I figured out where I was :) The reception was at the Orangery Restaurant, which is a really cool place. Check it out in the slideshow.

Thanks again Jessica and Josh for having me along! I wish you all the best.

I shot Josh and Lauren’s wedding Friday up in Cleveland, TN. Lauren and the gals had breakfast at Chick-fil-a, got their hair done at Style Masters Salon, make-up at Belk in the mall. Then they went to Candies Creek Baptist Church for the rest of the afternoon. Reception was at the Museum at Five Points in downtown Cleveland.

Peter and Whitney Carlson from Dove Photography in Nashville called me one day to see if I was available to second shoot for them… at the time I didnt know that not only would I be shooting in the foothills of the Apalachian Mountains or that it was Whitney’s sister getting married, but that they themselves would be in the wedding! How fun. So as it turned out I was to be second shooting with their regular second shooter Jen Odom.

It was a great day. Lots of fun and emotion. Everything was beautiful and the storm of the century that moved through did so without interupting ANYTHING. I am serious there were surfing waves in the swimming pool outside the reception :D Thanks for having me guys and congratulations to Jessica and Alex.
