Meads Quarry || Ijams Nature Center || Chasity + Rodney

I have known this bride for a super long time. She is actually the sister of another bride that I shot back in June, Sommer Malone, and we grew up on the same road and went to the same school system. At her sister’s wedding, I got to meet Rodney in passing, but it wasn’t until the engagement session that I really got to know him. Rodney loves Chasity like none other. Let me give you an example of this. Chasity has been wanting to open a boutique for a very long time. She put in an application to get a spot in West Town Mall and was put on a waiting list. A few months ago she got the call saying that she got a spot, but because it’s West Town Mall, they have super strict rules that you HAVE to abide by. One of which is that you have to be open anytime the mall is open. (I’m not really sure how Chic-fil-a got around this on Sundays, but they did.) Well when the mall is open pretty much all day every day, you kind of get in a little pickle when you have a doctor appointment or just need a sick day. Chasity runs this booth every day all day, but when Rodney gets off of work, he comes straight to the mall to keep Chasity company or take over so she can finally get something to eat. He spends weekends there and sacrifices so much to help Chasity’s dream come true. And that’s exactly what Chasity is doing… making dreams come true. Her boutique is called Southern Grace Outfitters and is located right beside the Starbucks booth in West Town Mall. She wore all of her own stuff throughout the engagement session so if you see something you like, stop by her booth and give her some support! I’m so proud of this girl for taking the leap and doing what she’s always dreamed of!

Thank you so much Chasity and Rodney for letting me photograph your engagement pictures. You guys are so stinking adorable and your love for each other is beautiful!
