Okay y’all. This engagement session with Josie and Tanner at the beautiful Tsali Notch Vineyard honestly made me feel like my heart had wings. I don’t even know where to begin!

They finally decided to go through with their wedding & simply change the location. I’m […]

Jocey is a senior this year at Tellico Plains High School… So how did she end up in Downtown Knoxville for senior portraits? There’s a ton of beautiful scenery in Tellico, but that’s what you come to expect for a Tellico senior! Jocey said she didn’t know exactly what she wanted for her senior photos… […]

When Drew + Stepheny’s big wedding at the Lee University Chapel turned into a small, intimate gathering, my heart went out to them. No one could have seen COVID coming, but it has taken an incredible hit on brides, grooms, and weddings as an industry. I absolutely hate it for my sweet clients who aren’t […]

Freshman year, I sat up in the balcony of the Conn Center toward the very end of the spring semester and watched my very first honors chapel. I looked at all the seniors on the stage, picked up a program and started reading about the different awards they had earned. The speaker told the first […]

You know the feeling. You booked a photo shoot and you’ve been super excited, but 24 hours before your session begins, you’re standing in front of your closet saying, “I have nothing to wear!” The reality is that plenty of amazing outfits are staring you right in the face, but the fear of picking the […]
