Oh, how I loved this photography session with the Littlejohns!! It was such a pleasure to work with them and get to know their beautiful family. Brandon and Talesha are such compassionate, patient, and attentive parents to their one- and three-year-old children. They exemplify the idea that life can be complicated but also full of […]
Picture a lovely spring evening on the shores of the Tennessee River. Wading birds, ducks, and seagulls line the water and the banks. A few boats cruise off in the distance. Beautiful houses line the banks of the opposite shore. A soft, cool breeze floats by and swirls around your body. This was the setting […]
“I’m Spirit! I’m Spirit!” Little Zora proceeded to prance around like a pony and whinny all around Baker Creek Preserve, yelling this at the top of her tiny, little lungs. Spirit’s parents (Jen and Neal,) are pretty used to this and take it in great stride. Apparently, they had heard this same thing quite a […]
One of the best things my husband and I did when we got married was hire someone to take photos of him getting ready on our wedding day. Our main photographer, of course, was scheduled to take getting ready photos of me. This is always the case; brides tend to get more love than the […]
It was such a pleasure to meet Jen and Michael! I had never met either of them before being referred to them, but they are both so down-to-earth and friendly, we felt like old friends. Their wedding was held at a rooftop venue in downtown Knoxville in lovely Market Square. It was laid back, friendly, […]
It’s really important to have photos of the people you love. Even if they are just simple snapshots, your future self will be grateful. How do I know this? Because I have a photo of my father in a tiny suit when he was probably one year old. I have a photo of his father when […]
“I have a boo-boo on my toe.” Arthur woefully told me about his hurt toe first thing when he got out of the car. Apparently, he had fallen down and scraped his shin and toe earlier in the day. This is a very big deal to a two-and-a-half-year-old, so I tried to be very understanding […]
My friends Jen and Neal came to town to visit recently. We took the opportunity to get some mother-daughter photos of Jen and her little daughter, Zora. Zora is full of energy and loves to explore. Those little legs will take her anywhere she wants to go, and faster than you would think! She also […]
This mother and daughter photo session was so magical! Just picture this: a 1930s farm house that has been beautifully restored and is filled with light. A sprawling yard complete with chickens, a meadow, a huge old tree with a swing, and a garden. Ample space for a three-year old to run, play, explore, and […]
I had the honor of photographing the wedding of friends I’ve known since I moved to Knoxville in 2008. Ashley is calm, gentle, and exceedingly kind. Adam is philosophic, inquisitive, and an old soul. They got married at the charming Museum of Appalachia in Clinton, Tennessee. It was a warm and beautiful evening. The sun just […]
