Sunrise sessions are my favorite!  Just like Missy is Jim’s favorite!  I had the best time with Jim, Missy, and Lizzie on this beautiful Saturday morning in downtown Chattanooga!  Sunrise/early morning is absolutely the best time for Coolidge Park Engagement photos because this is the only time of day when the light is nice and […]

I love a vintage wedding and pretty much anything that’s considered “Old”.  This is why we dreamed up this shoot at The Read House in Chattanooga.  It is the perfect blend of high-end new finishings with a nostalgic and vintage setting.  This “Read House Wedding” has all the glamour of old hollywood and the sophistication […]

Holly and I have been close friends for years.  We have seen each other through a lot of tough and happy times.  We have hared more than few girls nights and therapy sessions.  To say I’m proud of her and how she has grown is an understatement.  We are very different and scarily similar in […]

All of Ari and Adam’s family and friends were on the dance floor.  They were full of laughter and joy as they all moved to the music.  In the midst of all the celebrating Adam & Ari caught my eye.  The world was moving around them but they only had eyes for each other.  They […]

I casually walked in the dressing room to check on the bride before the ceremony and suddenly realized I was walking in a very spiritual and special moment. Then I saw the bride, her Mom Ann, and all her bridesmaids huddled in the center of the room. I felt like I was intruding, but I […]

Falling Water Falls & Signal Point Engagement Photos Kristiana and Ian had not seen each other in MONTHS when we met for our engagement session so the chemistry was ELECTRIC!  These two are so in love and it shows.  When I watched them together several words came to mind: Fun, chemistry, adventurous, easy.  They just […]

We didn’t exactly have luck on our side when we started this engagement session at Point Park for this Lookout Mountain engagement session.  We could literally see the rain headed our way over the mountain, despite the bright sunshine and blue sky directly above us.  We didn’t let the rain stop us from having a […]

This might be the most common question I get as a photographer. It’s a stressful thing to figure out what will look best in photographs so that you can feel confident in your appearance. I even devoted several pages in my bridal guide just to engagement prep and wardrobe.  There are some general rules but […]

I was so excited for these picnic engagement photos at Sunset Rock in Chattanooga!  I could tell when I met Sarina and Alex at Point Park they were a little nervous.  Photo sessions can be intimidating, but 10 min into the session I could see the spark ignite between these two and their chemistry took […]
