All good things are wild and free... { Jane Bell }

I typically write a long noted post about the images I share in each blog post. But Jane Bell was a little different, there are not many words to describe her. She has vintage beauty that can be described by any Tom petty song, and a soulful voice that could take you back decades.

" I am not a bird, no net ensures me; I am a free human being with an independent will.." 

We can take a little inspiration from where we can get it. Especially ourselves.

Becca & Joe { Life Long Sweethearts }

Hey Ya'll!  I think some of you remember Becca  & Joe's engagement session we did a few months ago, and the big day finally arrived! This adorable couple are also two of close friends here in Nashville, which made their day extra special for all of us. The venue was gorgeous with horses and sunsets...although none of the horses wanted to hang out with us that day. Here's a peak of their awesome day!

 

How cute are they! All giggles on their big day!

I love the pops of red that Becca added! So cool!

First dances are always my favorite, especially with fathers...they always take it up a notch!

I am looking like a hot mess..but heck the pictures were totally worth it! Here  is our awesome wedding day crew! Thanks again guys for inviting us to be a part of this wonderful celebration, it was beautiful!

What was the most memorable moment from you wedding day?

Becca : " Seeing my Dad [s] after I was  finally ready. Feeling how proud they were of Joe and I, how much they love us. 

Joe : " Becca walking down the isle."

Any advice for future bride and grooms?

Becca : " Take you time & enjoy planning the big day"

Joe : " Do what you want. Its your day. Don't try to please everyone."

What was the funniest moment of your day?

Becca : " Not knowing Joe actually wrote his vows down on paper! Mine were in my phone!"

Joe : " The groomsmen taking off their shirts, but leaving their vests on. They looked like Chip in Dales dancers!"

If you could do it all over agin, would you change anything?

Becca : "  I would not have procrastinated on some of the planning."

Joe " No, I was so happy with how it all turned out."

Adam & Heather { Alexandra Bay, New York }

    As we grow up there are always those memories of childhood friends and vacations that stay with us as we get older. Heather is dear friend of mine, who when we were younger took a family vacation with my and mother to Alexandra Bay, New York. Remembering as a kid looking at how giant the Boldt Castle was, and all the boats in the harbor. I hadn't been there since. When Heather asked me to photograph her wedding I was overwhelmed with excitement. After all, how often is it that you get to photograph your friends wedding..on a beautiful Upstate New York island?! I hope your enjoy their big day as much as I did!

Look at those handsome fellas!!

I think the first look a bride gives her new hubby as their walking down the isle...is probably one of my favorite moments of each wedding 

These guys were so awesome! We hiked down this hillside rock place and found this magical spot! Oh so magical! 

Thank you so much for letting me photography your beautiful day! This was the most relaxed, yet awesome wedding I think I have ever attended, I cannot wait for what the future holds for you two. 

Wishing love and happiness to you! 

What was the most memorable moment from you wedding day?

Heather: " Read out vows to one another. It was so sweet, genuine and loving."

Adam: "Seeing Heather in her dress for the first time, she's so beautiful."

Any advice for future bride and grooms?

Heather : " Be true to yourself and what YOU want. Its your big day!"

Adam : "Have fun, this is not a day to get stressed out over, enjoy it as much as you can!"

What was the funniest moment of your day?

Heather: "My maid of honor's shoe breaking right before walking down the isle! Funny yet stressful!"

Adam: " Hanging out with your groomsmen before the wedding!"

If you could do it all over agin, would you change anything?

Heather: " Not really! I married the person I love so it was perfect!"

Adam: " Get better fitting tuxes, haha! "
