The Hobbs’ Pregnancy Announcement | Franklin, Indiana

September 22, 2017 | Leave a Comment

Olivia and Jeremy are going to have a baby!! I’m so excited for these two!

Olivia reached out to me over Facebook messenger to find out when I’d be in Indiana next and if I would be able to take some photos for them. When she told me the reason why they needed photos, I was sooooo excited! Keeping this secret from the rest of the family (Olivia is my cousin!), has definitely not been easy. So if you’re reading this, Mom, I’m sorry I told you Olivia and Jeremy wanted some photos “just because!”

Waterfall Engagement Session | Nashville, Tennessee Photographer

September 6, 2017 | 3 Comments

Janessa and I go way back – all the way back to 2008. We’ve truly been friends since the moment we first met. So when she started talking about her dream of having engagement photos at a waterfall, I couldn’t help but jump in with suggestions. It’s no secret that Tennessee has some of the most beautiful waterfalls around!

After extensive research, we settled on Carmac Falls at Evins Mill (please note this is private property and you will need to contact the linked venue 24 hours in advance for permission to access the falls). The waterfall is gorgeous and the lure of having basically a private waterfall (for a fee, of course) was too good to pass down. Of course, there was a bit of hike to get to the falls. I, for one, was not prepared for how physically demanding that hike would be (…or maybe I’m just out of shape.)

Williamson County Fair Couples Session | Franklin, Tennessee Photographer

August 29, 2017 | Leave a Comment

A few months ago, Steph had posted in a photography group on Facebook that she would be in Nashville in early August and was looking for someone to exchange a photo session with. I responded, and a beautiful friendship was born. The day we were to meet and take photos finally arrived. We had yet to decide on location, but we had decided to drag our significant others into our shenanigans.

That same week, the Williamson County Fair was going on. It’s basically just down the road from our little house, making it impossible to miss! I had been wanting to create portraits at a county fair for a while, but my attempts were not playing out. I have to give credit to Dan, my husband, for suggesting the fair as the setting for this session. Not only did I finally get to take my fair photos, but we also got some amazing portraits taken of us by Steph/Hazel Lining Photography!

Camille Joy | Franklin, Tennessee Portrait Photographer

August 11, 2017 | Leave a Comment

Meet Camille, a musician in Nashville, Tennessee with a heart of gold! I met Camille a few years ago at a mutual friend’s bachelorette party (whose recent sunflower maternity session you can see here!) Camille and I had talked about photos a few times over the years, but recently we finally made it happen! I think both of us are so glad we did! The resulting photos perfectly expressed both of our visions!

Elaine + Will: Morgan-Monroe Forestry Engagement | Franklin, TN Engagement Photographer

June 30, 2017 | 1 Comment

Originally, Elaine and Will had planned on traveling down to Nashville, Tennessee for their engagement photos. Of course I was perfectly okay with this because it’s local to me! However, when Elaine found out I was traveling up to Indiana for a week, we ended up moving her session up! She’s my favorite kind of client – too excited to wait for her photos!!

We met on a Saturday morning in the Morgan-Monroe Forestry at Bryant Creek Lake. The forestry is one of my favorite locations in my hometown. It seems no matter how many sessions I have here, I always find new areas within the forestry perfect for photos!

The Essary Family: Love Makes a Family | Franklin, Tennessee Photographer

May 15, 2017 | 2 Comments

Some of you may not know that in addition to photography, I work full-time as an Art Teacher. Angelica Essary is a first grade teacher at one of the two schools I currently teach at. Teaching already requires a big heart, but hers may be the biggest, most welcoming heart I have ever known. During my first semester at East Hickman Elementary School, I learned that Angelica and her husband, Tony, had taken in one of her students. During the past three years, my coworkers and I have all watched her family fall in love with this boy, Will, more and more. Finally, on April 19th, 2017, Will was officially adopted into their family.

Snow Portraits in Franklin, Tennessee

January 12, 2017 | Leave a Comment

A snow portrait of a woman wearing a fur vest against a wintery forest background.

One thing I’ve discovered since moving to Middle Tennessee is that it doesn’t take much for schools to call a snow day! A lot of business will open late or close early on winter weather days as well. Kara, a friend of mine who is also from Indiana, and I took advantage of the white landscape in Franklin, TN to take a few snow portraits.
