One of the most popular questions I get asked by couples is about having a first look. The decision to do a first look at your wedding is entirely personal and depends on your preferences as a couple. For those that do not know what a first look is, it refers to a private moment […]

When camcorders become affordable for the public, more and more couples had their weddings videoed. Over time, the fad wained but it seems to have picked up again with the emergence of better and more affordable technology. As a wedding photographer, I get asked countless times if I provide video as well. I do, in […]

Do I Really Need a Videographer?

Behind the Lens Life is better behind the lens. I get to be myself, the fun, outgoing, goober that does whatever it takes to capture the true essence of a person, couple, or family. Jessica said it well:   Fun and creative! Jeff has one of the best personalities I have experienced with photographers. He’s […]

The Power of Prayer On a warm Friday afternoon in May, Madison and Jon met for a time of prayer before their wedding. They did not do a first look, as Madison wanted her future husband to see her for the first time as she glided down the aisle. Rather, this beautiful bride came up […]

Have you ever wondered why you ended up somewhere? Like, why did you go (or not go) on a trip? I firmly believe there is a reason for everything we do and that every action has at least an equal and opposite reaction. In June 2018, I was asked to go to Puerto Rico to […]

It was a cool day in mid February when I met Kayla at the Starbucks in  West Town Mall in Knoxville. Starbucks is my go to if I’m not at Empty Cup. We talked about her Cades Cove wedding, as well as her love for turtles. After our chat, I was excited for this semi-destination […]

The first time I met Lauren was at a bridal show in February 2018. She was laid back and as cool as a cucumber. We talked for a lil bit and she went on exploring the show. A few weeks later, we met at a Dunkin Doughnuts (which for some odd reason, took me longer […]

Earlier this year I received a message from a bride to be. She lived in Ohio and had already had engagement photos taken, but wanted the right person to capture her fairytale wedding in the Great Smokey Mountains here in East Tennessee. Needless to say, the pressure was on! I was honored that she contacted […]

October is my favorite month of the year. Its the time when the leaves change and you can get Pumpkin Spice lattes from Starbucks, when Major League Baseball declares a World Series Champion and my birthday rolls around. Its also the busiest wedding month in the State of Tennessee. October 7, 2017 will always stand […]

Our story starts on a brisk January morning at a Chick-fil-a in Knoxville, TN. As we sat and ate breakfast, I heard Genessa and Nathan’s story. I heard how they met and the importance they played in each others lives. After getting to know each other, we went over wedding details and set a date […]
