Tim + Anna | North Carolina Engagement

Ringing in the New Year with an Engagement session I shot for Tim and Anna while in North Carolina! Winding through the Smokies, out to Max Patch (on the Appalachian Trail!), was so great - we got lost, found our way, swapped stories, and hiked up to this look-out point for a view that had us all wide-eyed and quiet for the first time in an hour and a half. 

WOW. 

Also, could they be sweeter with one another? I love spending my time with couples like Tim and Anna, and I'm so excited to come back to this side of the Smokies in June for their wedding!

Jimmy + Kristin | Nashville Engagement

When a family farm was mentioned over drinks with Kristin and Jimmy a couple weeks ago I threw up my hands and said: it's decided! THAT is where we should shoot your engagement photos! 

And (OMG), I am so glad it all came to be. We spent the afternoon running around the farm, catching chickens, riding horses, and playing by the creek where Jimmy used to take Kristin fishing when they first started dating.

Could they be cuter? 

Loved everything about this fall session; and the fact that this was a special place for these two meant the world! Much love - XO

Jesse + Sarah | Nashville Engagement

Sam Davis' Historic Home, cotton fields, and twinkle lights strung up on one of the property's old magnolia trees made for a beautiful engagement session with Sarah and Jesse! We had so much fun using so many different locations on this property, and staying well-past sunset to create some festive photos :-) 

P.S. I love when my couples bring their pup(s) to these shoots, because who doesn't love the sweet, candid moments that inevitably ensue when around fur babies??

Aaron + Danielle | Nashville Engagement

Over drinks at Pinewood Social, Danielle and Aaron told me about how they met, how he proposed on our city's Walking Bridge, and how downtown Nashville is home - they are a city couple, through and through, and it got me so excited to do their engagement photos! 

As the sun set, we went back to where Aaron proposed - watched another couple get engaged just before we left (!!!) - and then hit up a couple other beautiful Nashville locations for some fun photos where we played with the light of the city and long exposures! 

Such a fun night exploring downtown Nashville - XO 

Zach + River | Nashville Engagement

Well, they showed up laughing ... and never stopped - I am already so excited to hang out with these two and their families next month for their Wedding Day!

Give me ALL of the joy, please :-D

Have fun scrolling - I bet you'll inevitably find yourself beaming by the end of this post!
