Windy Downtown Engagement Session Emily and Matt drove in from Nashville for their Downtown Knoxville engagement photos, and I don’t think any of us expected it to be as windy as it was. Is it just me or have we been having windstorms a lot this year?? On this particular day, it was windy and […]

Spring UT Gardens Engagement Session It’s inevitable that at some point in my engagement sessions, I ask the couple to dance. The guy usually looks at me like are you crazy, Amanda? Then, I assure them it’s nothing tough. They’ll just sway and slow dance, and when I prompt him, he’ll give his fiancée a […]

Snowy Castleton Engagement Session I saw a meme the other day that said March consists of winter, spring, frigid weather freezing all the pretty blooms that got tricked into starting, the most perfect 70 degree weather, one more winter, and then blazing hot summer. At the time, we were in our first little bout of […]

Volunteer Landing Engagement Session The days leading up to Rocio and Edgar’s Volunteer Landing engagement session were sunny and warm and beautiful outside. I watched the radar as we got closer, and on this particular day it dropped down to the 40s and was super cloudy. Alaina, with Alaina René Photography is associate shooting this […]

Mead’s Quarry Winter Engagement I quickly learned just how much I have in common with Mary Beth and Josh at their Mead’s Quarry winter engagement session as we started laughing over our obsession with the show Outlander. Mary Beth lived in Scotland for awhile, which is why she loves it so much, and I don’t […]

Winter Engagement at Melton Hill Park At the beginning of last week, the weather was 50-60 degrees, sunny, and glorious. Then, we had three straight days of rain, and by Friday the weather was 20-30 degrees, cloudy, and drizzly. Rebecca and John booked with me just a couple weeks ago. Their wedding is in April […]

Winter Engagement at Castleton Farms This couple’s wedding at Castleton Farms in December of 2022. We scheduled their winter engagement at Castleton Farms, and I think it’s important to point out how important it is to see your venue in the same season as your wedding. Venues can look TOTALLY different in the winter than […]

Marblegate Farm Engagement Session Maleah and Wes are getting married at Marblegate Farm on March 26, 2022. I was already booked that day with my first wedding after Evelyn arrives so Alyssa Rachelle Photography is actually shooting it for me. Normally, I would have Alyssa also shoot the engagement session so they could officially meet […]

Foothills Parkway Engagement I met Bonnie through Houston and Christina whose wedding I photographed last year. Bonnie is Houston’s sister, and I had a blast getting to know her on their wedding day. Not only was she a bridesmaid, but she and Sadler came to their preview party at my house. It’s fun going through […]

Melton Hill Park Engagement Cari and Eric’s engagement session at Melton Hill Park happened right after the fall weather really came to Knoxville. I remember thinking, “Yyyeeeessssssss…I won’t be sweating anymore!!” Pregnancy means WAY more blood pumping through your body, which is like an internal heater keeping you nice and toasty. I also have a […]
