Ashley and Nick spend the afternoon at The Cove in Concord Park, Farragut Tn.

Two weeks ago I finally got a chance to shoot Ashley and Nick’s Engagement session. Their wedding is this Saturday in Knoxville. As a Knoxville wedding photographer, it was fun fun to spend the afternoon together. Ashley is a nurse and Nick a videographer at a local TV station. Gonna be a good wedding and marriage.

Kristy and Fernando make it official in Knoxville Tn.

A few short weeks ago it was Kristy and Fernando who celebrated their special day here in Knoxville. Kristy is from here in Tennessee and Fernando is from Central America. Both met here in Knoxville. Kristy is studying to be a Nurse and Fernando is a Doctor. What a match. As the couple moves to Texas to continue schooling, as a Knoxville wedding photographer it is a pleasure to post these pictures of their special day and start a new life together.

Jasmine and Chris have their first dance at Lake Lure, NC.

Just a short couple of weeks ago it was Jasmine and Chris that decided to have their wedding at historic Lake Lure. Lake Lure was the site of the filming of “Dirty Dancing”. The couple had a beautiful service outdoors with a few rain showers looming in the distance that made for a nice sunset. I as a Knoxville wedding photographer had a blast getting on the road for the event. Jasmine is a transplant from Korea although she has lived here all her life. Her Dad and her had a moment on the dance floor. And I think they shared more than one tear during the night. Here are a few images to remember. Enjoy.

Kristen and Josh begin a new in Atlanta, Ga.

Whew, what a month. I have finally gotten around to posting a beautiful wedding I photographed in April. The location was pristine, the day fabulous, and the couple….well you see for yourself. I as a Knoxville wedding Photographer was psyched to have my wife join me for the trip. On with the pics….
