The planets aligned for something good in 2020 and we got a white Christmas, the perfect backdrop for some snowy Christmas portraits of the Woods Family! This was supposed to be a fall portrait session, but timing didn’t work out and we had to push to later in the year. Ashley reached out a few […]

I can’t believe we found fall color in December!! It was perfect. I met Ashley and Chase at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens and we found some remaining fall color and it worked perfectly with her deep navy dress. I am so excited for their August 2021 wedding where I will get to work with the […]

I have been photographing the Gutman family for many years and I love watching these sweet kiddos grow. This year the family has a new baby, Cousin Alice and we had to include her in all the fall photo fun. I see this becoming a tradition!

I was so excited when Bailey and Jeremiah reached out to me earlier this year to capture their wedding next May. They chose to incorporate lakeside and mountain views into their fall engagement session and I think it was absolutely perfect. We were a little worried about rain, but I am so glad we decided […]
