Brett & Amanda {Nashville Engagement Photographer}

On the blog this week is Brett & Amanda's engagement session, which was so much fun to photograph! 

Brett is actually my cousin, and Amanda is his high school sweetheart. They're very much in love, and one of the cutest couples I know. It's always so nice to see your family members go through such an exciting moment in their lives!

We took these photos at a family farm in Southeast Missouri, and the lighting was just perfect! And although they don't have any furry family members yet, Amanda did say during out session that she does want a golden retriever someday (and I can't wait! :)

Enjoy some of my favorites below!

Kia & Austin {Southeast Missouri Wedding Photographer}

This wedding is extra special to me because it was filled with my own family & friends from my hometown in Missouri. Kia is my first cousin, and I've looked forward to photographing her & Austin's wedding day for a very long time. Kia was a gorgeous bride - her dress from the White Room here in Nashville was amazing and fit her style perfectly - and Austin was as handsome as ever in his gray tux!

Kia & Austin's wedding day was filled with the challenges of weather that forced them to move indoors after having planned an outdoor ceremony, but the skies cleared for us to be able to go to their outdoor site for all their bridal party photos. I'm so glad it did because they are some of my all time favorites!

I loved being a part of this day with them, and I hope you enjoy their blog post today - it's so much fun reliving the day through their photos!

Lots of wedding gorgeousness ahead - and I really had to make myself stop including more and more photos - love this wedding & this couple :)

Enjoy!

Lana & Matt's Nashville Wedding {Nashville Wedding Photographer}

I honestly can't say enough about all the gorgeousness that was Matt & Lana's wedding day! From their ceremony at Woodmont Christian Church to their reception at Union Station, everything was just perfect! I also feel so lucky to have been on this entire journey with them. I photographed their proposal in Germantown in February of this year, then their fun engagement session in downtown Nashville, all the way through their rehearsal dinner at the Watermark

Even though they now live in Virginia, they wanted to have their proposal, engagement photos and wedding in Nashville where they met and fell in love. Matt & Lana are so smily! Their big day started with getting ready photos and a first look at Union Station, followed by a fun trolley ride to Woodmont for the ceremony. The cocktail hour and reception was back at Union Station ending with a pretty epic dance party and beautiful sparkler exit.

Matt & Lana are so sweet together and you could easily see how much these two care for each other, and how supported they are by their friends and family! And can we just talk for one second about how gorgeous this couple is! And their wedding party too! I loved working with them all, and I'm so excited to share their full blog post today.

Enjoy!
