Huh? You know, Natalie and Matt, they got married at the Woodland Place in Vinton? Just look back a couple of months here in the blog and you’ll find them. I had a little time and wanted to do something for them, so I put this together…

No more holding out…
Annie is a Senior from Franklin County that we have been working with. She wanted edgy, fashion oriented Senior portraits that didn’t look like everyone else’s, so she called us. We utilized our fashion background and found some awesome locations for her first shoot.
Here are a few favorites…
We put together a little slideshow as well, feedback is always appreciated!
The Day After…
We have talked to many couples about doing a “Day After Session” or “Trash the Dress”, and it usually needs a little explanation…
Basically, on your wedding day you will be REALLY strapped for time, sometimes stressed, and always ready to PARTY at the reception! With most people scheduling the posed photos after the ceremony and guests/family anxious to start the reception (food and drink are important)tensions can run high as guests wait at the tables for the bride and groom to return from the photo session. Daylight may be fading or weather may not cooperate, so scheduling a Day After session can make the day less stressful and get some AMAZING images!
We always work hard to find the most beautiful, or edgy, or cool places for your photoshoot no matter where we happen to be, but imagine a shoot in the woods, or in an urban setting, or in the water at the beach for your wedding images. How many of your friends did this for their wedding? We have a few setup for the future and can’t wait to meet with these couples again to create some artistic images.
Brides may wonder about how their dress will fair after something like this and that is a valid question. We can take it easy and be very careful with dress and where you sit, stand or lay. Or we can go all out for some amazing imagery and make the fashion world jealous with what we create with you. What are you going to do with your dress afterwards anyway? Will your daughter want to wear it 20 years from now? Did you wear your mother’s dress? Why not? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you should take it to goodwill the day after the ceremony, I know the investment you made in that dress, wouldn’t you want to get a little more use out of it? A good dry cleaner will have most of them as good as new (unless you go all out with mud or grease or something!)
We’ll show off some as we do more…
Holding out…
Yep, that’s right, I’ve been holding out on you…
Between meetings and shoots I’ve left you hangin’… Well let me see if I can fix that…
Early at the arboretum Shannon turned on that beautiful smile…
then we headed on to a beautiful wooded setting…
…where Shannon turned into a fashion model and rocked the runway (…err, woods, I mean)
She worked every angle with her dress!
and straight out of Italian Vogue…
Wow! I still need to post their wedding images for you blog readers, and we are looking forward to a Fahion Bridal session with her and Jeremy that should be uber-cool!
Well, well, well…
I’ve been busy working on a couple of Senior portrait sessions, an engagement session, a wedding, a family session, whew!! My blogging schedule is not working, but my clients are happy!
Some of my older posts are not fitted to the new blog layout, so I’ll work on that soon (the Mabry Mill shoot with Shannon and Jeremy)…
Here are some teaser images from Garrett and Ben’s wedding…
Garrett was a gorgeous bride!
A beautiful dress (Mom and Paige assist with the ribbon!)
Ben and the fellas hangin’ out on the street
Whoa!! Is this from an issue of Vanity Fair? Where’d these beautiful ladies come from? Check out their runway skills!
