From This Day Forward - Wedding Portraits at Dara's Garden in Knoxville

Michael and Audra,    

      Oh! These two! I loved everything about this session. The rain on Michael and Audra's wedding day made it impossible for them to have their pictures taken outdoors after their ceremony. Can you imagine?? On your wedding day, you have all these pictures but none of just the two of you?! That hurt my heart when I heard that. I'm so glad we were able to get some shots for them. Such a wonderful couple.

 I've known the bride for a few years now, since our college days. She means so much to me! And to boot, she found a wonderful man to spend forever with. This shoot was especially sweet for me. Weddings are so sweet and special!! I'm so glad I had the privilege of playing a small role in the sweet memories these two will cherish forever. What a joy for me! 

This beautiful location - Dara's Garden - the folks were so sweet in working with us in allowing us to take these photos there. I hope to visit this location more often for photos. If you need an event or wedding venue that is beautiful and private with a wonderful and professional staff, this is definitely the place!!   

Forever and ever is a long time to love, but these two - they will. Thank you Michael and Audra and may I wish you many years of love and happiness ahead! :)

Tractors, trucks, and toys - There's nothing quite like little boys! Weston's 2nd birthday!

Weston's 2nd Birthday,
      Little boys turning two seems to be a theme for me this summer. This was my second birthday party to shoot for a two year old. My son also turns two this month, so this kind of thing is right up my alley! I had been contacted about this party after I had finished my last party about a month ago. I was excited to have another opportunity to shoot a birthday party. I have discovered that shooting birthday parties are a lot of fun for me! I get to be a little more relaxed and a little more casual. I get to enjoy the festivities - and then there's always cake!! YUM! My husband accompanied me on this shoot too, which is always a huge plus for me. I love it when we get to do these things together. He's quite a handy helper! Weston's party was "all things boy" with tractors and trucks and water to play in. The kids enjoyed the water almost as much as the adults enjoyed watching them play. What a fun day! What a fun theme for this party and great ideas for decorating! Enjoy a bit of Weston's party...

What a wonderful family! Thank you Tim and Annabel for allowing me to have a part in celebrating Weston's second birthday party. Happy Birthday Weston!
