Photojournalism from Melissa & Reg’s Wedding
Melissa and Reg didn’t want a lot of posed wedding photos. They weren’t concerned with details or having everything be just so. They designed their wedding to focus solely on celebrating their love with family and friends and they wanted their wedding photos to reflect that without pausing to take them away from the celebration.
When we shoot together, Sean falls most naturally into a photojournalistic style, keeping a close eye out for emotion and for friends and family to interact with each other–so we knew this wedding would be a perfect fit for him. It’s a rare break in routine for one of us to photograph a wedding without the other, but he did such beautiful work that I might hire him out solo more often! ;)
Here’s a little snippet of some of my favorites from their day…

I love this one of Melissa and her dad right before they walked down the aisle.

The wedding took place at Events at 1418 in downtown Nashville. It was the perfect cozy venue for this casual and intimate event. They started off the wedding with a cocktail hour, and at the end of that, the DJ told everyone to take their seats and the ceremony happened right then–in the middle of the reception venue. Such a fun idea and the guests loved it!

Absolutely love the emotion in this one; one of my favorites this year

I can tell from the hundreds of crazy dancing photos that this group is too much fun! The evening was everything a great wedding should be. :)


Congratulations, Melissa and Reg!
Madeline: McLellan [Senior] Style
Madeline is a girl with a quiet spirit that lights up a room. She’s gorgeous and multi-talented and full of life. Sean and I loved having her and her wonderful mom, Sarah out for her Senior session. Thanks for coming to Franklin ladies! I had the hardest time narrowing down to a few favorites, but I kept coming back to these. Many more to come! We hope you enjoy this sneak peek! :)




Welcome to the World, Grayson Parker
Scott and Amy’s wedding graced our website as a feature in our early days. We just loved them so much and knew we would be happy photographers if we photographed lots more couples just like them throughout our career. Now, years later, they are the same wonderful, beautiful people with an equally wonderful, beautiful son. I was thrilled to be able to photograph their little family last week!

This kid has most certainly inherited his parents’ charm. ;)




Scott and Amy – we are happy for you beyond words! Congratulations on your handsome little man! :)
– Mel and Sean
