Knoxville Botanical Senior Session I think this senior is the epitome of awesome. With her adorable glasses, high waisted pants, and floral combat boots, she’s the cutest hipster I know.

Lakeshore Park So, I’ve shot at Lakeshore Park a couple of times. Both times, my GPS took me into the Lyon’s View Pike entrance. Going that way, the park seems much smaller than it is, and I’m realizing how naive I was to think it wasn’t huge. Everyone in Knoxville knows how gigantic that park […]
