sara ann & ethan // tn wedding photographer

meet the sanderlins! these two high school sweethearts got married on a perfect fall day, and I am so honored to have been there to document their day! from the minute I met sara ann and her mom at starbucks to get to know each other a little bit we instantly clicked... which probably isn't saying much since I would dare say sara ann probably has zero people in the world that dislike her, even just the tiniest bit. sara ann is the kind of woman that just radiates positivity and a certain kind of kind-heartedness that is entirely genuine.  and although he may be a tough-guy cop for a living, ethan definitely has a soft spot in his heart for sara ann. although it took him quite a while to work up the courage to ask her to be his girlfriend when they were in high school, and even longer to finallyyyy kiss her, the wait was worth the fairytale ending (sorry for the cliche, but cliches are cliches for a reason, right?!). anyway, enough words.. I'll let the images speak for themselves now. you can check out their engagement session here if this post just isn't enough cuteness for ya! 

helen & bryan // TN wedding photography

Oh how I have adored working with this beautiful couple! Meet Mr. and Mrs. Moon, quite possibly the most compassionate couple I may have ever met.  Nine times out of ten, my first contact with a couple comes from the bride-to-be, but Bryan emailed me first because Helen was in Africa at the time doing philanthropic work. From the start, I knew I was going to adore these two. Helen is obviously stunning, but she's also one of the kindest and most generous human beings you'll ever meet (perfect example: she suggested doing disaster relief work for their honeymoon when a natural disaster had Bryan scrambling to change their honeymoon location at the last minute... I mean really?!). Did I mention she's also a pharmacist for Indian Health Service? A saint I tell you!  And the way Bryan looked at his sweet bride when she walked down the aisle and throughout the rest of the day? Well, let's just say it set the bar pretty high for my future husband. A huge thank you to this beautiful couple for trusting me to document your day! It never ceases to both amaze and humble me that I am able to make a living chasing beautiful people around on their wedding day with my camera in hand. And also a big shout out to Amber Rhodes Lapoint for her fabulous work as a second shooter, as always! 

Enjoy!
