Ting & Wil drove all the way up from Louisiana for this pre-wedding session. Then later I flew all the way to Sanya, China for their wedding. It was such an honor to get to know these two & I’m so happy I had the opportunity to photograph them. I’ll be blogging their China wedding soon, so be on the lookout for that! It’s traditional for Chinese weddings to display wedding photos at the reception, so that’s where this session came in. Cades Cove was the perfect location for this shoot- we even saw a few bears & a turkey! Enjoy :)

Oh, Jordan & David. What a heartfelt wedding at the Red House in Franklin. I love that this lovely couple infused so much of them into their wedding. From their sentimental ceremony to their vegetarian dinner, it was SO Jordan & David. They even had the caterer make a few of the recipes they love to make together. Jordan rocked a pair of Chacos & David DJ’d the entire reception. I’m telling you- it was a rockin’ evening full of love. Thanks Jordan & David for having me!

I met up with Luci & Josh in Knoxville for their engagement photos & had a flippin’ blast. I love when my clients incorporate things they love into their photos. In this instance, that meant their adorable pup Sam. Just wait until you see what Sam to wore to their wedding :)

While in LA, we visited El Matador State Beach in Malibu & experienced one of the best sunsets around. Driving up the Pacific Coast Highway was one of the highlights of our trip!

Wanqing & I have a weird connection. I studied abroad at her home university in China & she studied abroad at my home university in the US. I was so happy to shoot her engagement photos. I love her quirky style & how adorable she is with Steven. Congrats on your engagement, Wanqing!!
