Adib & Ramona -Nashville Engagement Photography

I don’t know if you are ready for these images. I’ll be honest. This couple is pretty hot. If you have heart problems or are pregnant please refrain from looking too closely at these images as they may cause light-headiness and tunnel vision! But seriously, we love Ramona & Adib.  They made this session so fun and easy.  :)  We can’t wait to shoot their wedding later this month. Enjoy some of our favorites from their stylish downtown engagement session!

Clifton Inn Charlottesville Wedding Photography – Jon & Jessica

A couple of weeks ago we got to leave the insane heat of Nashville to shoot the beautiful wedding of Jon & Jessica in Charlottesville, VA!   We were so excited when they contacted us last year and told us they were getting married at Clifton Inn. This place is by far one of our favorite venues to shoot.  The wedding was absolutely beautiful and I’m so glad that Jon & Jessica were able to have the outdoor ceremony they had waited so long for.  Right after the ceremony the heavens opened up!  Despite the rain, everyone had a blast and the day went off without a hitch.  Huge thanks to Sheila Motley with The Event Company for keeping everything on track.  Below are a few (ok a lot) of our favorites…enjoy!

Nashville Photography – Neal & Holly “Anytime” Session

We’ve known Holly for a few years (we are very loyal clients…she does our hair!) and we were so excited last year when she & Neal got engaged.  Neal & Holly decided to have an intimate & private wedding.  Ever since then we have been planning an “After Session” with them.  On the day of the shoot, they opted  out of getting back into their wedding attire and chose just to have a fun & casual shoot around Germantown.  These two are stunning and we love how they turned out. Enjoy a few of our favorites:)

If you are a bride-to-be and are looking for someone for hair/make-up, Holly is incredible.   You can contact her here:  hollybrownhair@yahoo.com

Michelle Elsky - She’s doing my makeup! These photos are gorgeous!
