The Studio at Fountain City 3 Month Session When I had Grayson, he came out looking just like Dustin. In fact, I had never really seen any baby look more like one parent over the other. Other moms came up to me all the time saying how much he looked like his daddy and what […]

Island Homes Anniversary Session Another opportunity to shoot a local photographer and it was just so good. I first met Khristy when I shot one of her family member’s weddings in Indiana. What are the chances right?? How in the world would I get a wedding in Indiana and meet a Knoxville photographer while I’m […]

World’s Fair Site Family Session I met the Bishop family for their World’s Fair Site family session last week, and my goodness I had so much fun with them. These kiddos are sweet to their core and just have the best smiles ever. We had their session scheduled in October, and the week before we […]

Knox Botanical Fall Family Session This little family is just precious. At the beginning of our session, I learned just how adventurous little Owen is. He was so not into being held, and as soon as you put him down, he took off. Usually, I can still distract them with something fun while they are […]

Every time I shoot a senior session, I’m reminded how far removed from high school I’m getting. I’m not one of those people that hates their birthday because it means I’m a year older. I’ve decided I’m just going to embrace the aging thing and count it as a win because it means one more […]

Sequoyah Hills Family Session I recently wrote a blog about how meaningful it is when a photographer chooses you to photograph their kids. It’s the highest form of flattery when it comes to photography. Well, Tristan is also a photographer. She is amazing, and if you haven’t seen her work, you can follow her on […]

Stanley’s Greenhouse Family Session I get all of my house plants and some of our landscaping plants from Stanley’s Greenhouse, and I get all of our pumpkins/gourds from Thress Nursery Gardens. From the very first time I went to Stanley’s Greenhouse, I’ve been DYING to shoot there. It is absolutely beautiful, and ALL of their […]

Knox Botanical Gardens 6 month session I cannot BELIEVE it’s already been 6 months since this little nugget was born. Does anyone else feel this weird time warp thing from 2020? On the one hand, I feel like the non-mask wearing days were forever ago and COVID has been around for years, but on the […]

Hunter Valley Bridal Portraits On Natalie and Anthony’s wedding day, Natalie was getting ready with her mom in the bridal suite. Her dress was not a simple assembly. It had a corset in the back that her mom had to thread and tie off. The bustle had 10 anchor points, and it took a solid […]

Cades Cove Family Session in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park The day before the Menard’s family session in Cades Cove, I checked the weather, and it said 10% chance of rain. Okay. Perfect. I woke up at 6 in the morning and left by 6:30 and saw little dribbles of rain on my back […]
