Girls Gone Wild

'Just over the Kentucky line' is how Sarah described our trip to her nieces' photo session. It's actually a little piece of heaven on earth. Sarah's friend Susan shared her homestead with us for an afternoon of country discovery and shooting. Susan brought the horses around for a good petting before she exercised them for a bit. We also found snake skins and baby birds. I think the girls enjoyed it, I know I did.

Waiting patiently, Sarah and Trent

It's midnight as I sit here at the computer asleep. And I really do enjoy this or I wouldn't stay up all night working on it.
Trent was razzing me a bit, during our photo shoot, about my blog postings and how I always said my couples are so sweet or so fun or so whatever. He puts me in mind of my cousin Rob (and a little bit of my brother too), as he has a very serious demeanor and a sharp, dry wit.
But, the thing is, I really do like being around people, meeting new people, and just yakking about anything and everything. I liked getting to know Trent and Sarah (who really are sweet and fun and cute and a bunch of other adjectives) and Sarah's brother's family (whose photos I'll post shortly).
Trent and Sarah have been married 10 years and are expecting their first child within a month. They still act like newlyweds and let me just say that is going to be one lucky baby.

We toured the Nashville area for our shoot: Centennial Park and the Bi-Centennial Mall. And while Sarah is still in much better shape than I am, I think she had had enough after a couple of hours in the heat.

The Sunny Sunday Wedding

Kassidy and Mark were both glowing all day Sunday. I never saw Kassidy without a smile on her pretty face. The wedding was outside at Lorri and Bob Vogel's A Country Chapel in Adams, TN and a lovely breeze kept the soaring temperatures in check. Of course, there are many editing hours ahead from this sweet wedding day, but I wanted to post a few right away.

Part of the Posse.

The absolutely gorgeous flowers are from Helen's Flowers of Guthrie.

I just really enjoy a country setting...so many ways to shoot with few obstructions and very little traffic. It was just extremely pleasant, romantic, and stress-free from start to finish.

Love this family... Danielle and Marshall

Marshall and Danielle are just too stinkin' cute together. Danielle's family is Turning Point Productions and she is VP...video princess. Great fun. Marshall is in service to our country and was home just long enough for some together time and great photos. He is also new best friend to Danielle's parents...he left his Wii with them and now they're addicted!



The wedding is the next time Marshall has some leave and is destined for Hawaii. We told them we travel...
Take a look at their slideshow. They picked the music and I love it.

Kassidy & Mark out in the country

Kassidy and Mark live truly in God's Country. This sweet couple is ensconced on the property of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) in Adams, TN...really, really beautiful countryside. They have chosen A Country Chapel and Lorri Vogel's very delicious catering and for their June wedding.




We spent a couple hours on the YWAM property and in downtown Adams for their e-session. You have to love a town where the dogs travel along side the cars from one home to another. I had two dogs like that for a good while. They left the house in the morning when I went to work and spent the day with my dad just down the road. He always had a slice of bologna (or baloney where I come from) for them. But I digress...
Mark really likes the small town life, but Kassidy is ready to spread the good Word to bigger cities and other countries. They'll do fine.

Ashley's Par-Tay

Ashley, Ashley's Bride Guide of Nashville, is hosting a party with a viewing of the new Sex and the City movie and tons of vendor samplings. How fun is that? Ashley was the guest speaker at our Clarksville Brides meeting earlier this week and she is one 'in tune' woman. Check her blog for details and sign up! The fun is scheduled for May 30.
....Ashley also gave props to our good friends at Dove Wedding Photography in her post the day before. Nice, nice work there.

So Fun, So Sweet: Dannie and Brittany

Dannie and Brittany had a fun filled e-session in Nashville, touring Centennial Park, Vanderbilt University (Dannie's Alma mater), the Bi-Centennial Mall and the Village Cleaners. Yep, Village Cleaners...it was a first kiss thing. Love the sentiment.

Oooh, also trying a new logo. I like dragonflies, doesn't everyone?
Anyway... Brittany and Dannie are planning an October wedding on the family farm and there will be fireworks! Woo hoo.
