Josh & Jenny | Wedding Teaser

Josh & Jenny were married in early May in Nashville, TN. Family and friends began the evening with cocktails while they mingled with each other before the ceremony as Josh & Jenny finished up their last minute touch ups. The ceremony began right at sunset in a gorgeous garden and was finished just before nightfall. The reception then followed in an all-white tent with an all-white dance floor and a gorgeous floral wrapped chandelier. The evening continued with much dancing and bright smiles thanks to the awesome live band! -You’ll hear a little of them in the teaser below. The night ended (to Josh & Jenny’s surprise) with a grand exit that was serenaded by a small gospel choir singing “O Happy Day!”

Josh & Jenny are a beautiful couple and had one of the most beautiful weddings we have ever seen! Congratulations, you two!


We want to send out a huge huge HUGE thanks to Andy & Chandra for coming all the way down from MI to 2nd shoot with us! You two rocked and made life soo easy. (More on Andy & Chandra in a future post)

Monday Inspiration | Flag Day

It’s funny how many adults don’t know what Flag Day really is. Sure, we probably learned in elementary school, but very soon forget because it’s not as celebrated as July 4th! Well, Flag Day is VERY important because June 14th is the anniversary date of when our country adopted our flag! What’s a country without a flag, right? The whole week of June 14th is designated as “National Flag Week”; and it’s tradition that during National Flag Week, the president will issue a proclamation urging U.S. citizens to fly the American flag for the whole week. The flag should also be displayed on all Government buildings. Some organizations hold parades and events in celebration of America’s national flag and everything it represents. So this week, we urge you to fly our flag HIGH:)and don’t forget how truly blessed we are as “one nation under God.”

Dustin & Kim | Wedding Teaser

We have been awaiting Dustin & Kim’s wedding for over a year now! They booked us in May last year and since then we’ve gained some great new friends! We had fun getting to know these two over the past year and we were so excited to shoot their Love Story and wedding. Their wedding and reception was at Belle Meade Plantation in Nashville, TN. It was a SUPER hot day, but everything went so smoothly and looked so beautiful thanks to Emily of Simply Yours Weddings. Kim was a beautiful bride whose smile was brighter than her gown; and Dustin was a handsome groom who had a few tricks up his sleeve -you’ll see what we mean in the teaser!


This was also our first time shooting with Zach of Zach Goodyear Photography. Check out a few of his photos below:

Birthday Fun!

One week ago we celebrated my (Heather) birthday in our home town in Indiana. The whole day was so great! I woke up to tons of “Happy Birthday” Facebook notifications and texts -Eugene said he heard my phone beeping with notifications for hours through the early morning:)We spent the day with friends and family, went bowling with my 81 year old grandma, and then had hot wings at Buffalo Wild Wings! I received cards, movies, and some lucky bamboo plants from my mom, but I must say my most favorite present from my most favorite person was…….

Twilight DVD Birthday Fun!New Moon DVD Birthday Fun!
This was definitely not thrilling for Eugene to get for me -he probably vomited while buying these:)but he bought them because he knew I would love them! If you know Eugene, you’ll know that he likes to draw things out. So, of course, he waited until the very last moment to let me open my giant NEON green package which sat on the dresser taunting me for days. Thanks, babe!

Thanks to all of you family and friends who made my birthday so special! It definitely will be one of my most memorable birthdays ever!
