Stephanie and Kyle are getting married in September so we really needed to hurry and get them in for an engagement session! It’s been so long since we saw them and it was great to catch up and spend a little time together! These guys met while they were in law school at Nashville School of Law so we headed back to the scene of the crime for their session. So many hours spent in the library…

I can’t decide which way I like it best. What do you think? Opinions please!

Have a great weekend everyone!

5:30am. Just in case you were wondering what it looks like, this is it! Last Saturday we were in Virginia for Bethany and Larry’s wedding. August heat is sooooo miserable so we all agreed to get up early and do the couple’s photos in the wee hours of the morning. Wow it was early but it was also incredibly pleasant temperature-wise so it was worth it! We shot as the sun rose with the fog all around. Mornings are really quite a beautiful time of day! Maybe we’ll see more of those when we’re older! :)

Thanks you guys! See you soon!

So there’s this blog game going around and evidently I’ve been tagged by the infamous David Baxter. I’m supposed to tell you 8 things you may not know about me and then tag 8 other photographers so here goes!

SUNSCREEN PLEASE
1. I am primarily Irish, German, and Norwegian. I have no hope of ever getting a tan.

YIKES!
2. I really really don’t like dead things but in particular, I HATE dinosaur bones (the whole set up sha-bang – not just individual bones mind you) and all life-sized replicas related to the same. I won’t go near them – totally senseless and wierd I know but that’s how I feel about it!

MMMMM…
3. I think just about anything would taste good if it were covered in chocolate!

I KNOW, I KNOW
4. When you get your braces taken off, the orthodontist puts a wire behind your bottom teeth as a permanent retainer that you’re supposed to wear for a year or two. I’ve not made it back yet so I’ve had a permanent retainer for 10 years!

WELLINGTON’S FRIEND
5. I have a cat named Dirball. Yes, that is really his name.

DON’T QUESTION IT!
6. I like chocolate WAY more than you do!

WHAT CAN YOU DO??
7. Sean says that because I’ve had a retainer in my mouth for 10 years that I’ll probably have permanent glue spots on the inside of two of my teeth.

SOME THINGS ARE LEFT WELL ENOUGH ALONE.
8. I’m thinking that revealing 8 obscure facts about myself might be a bad idea! :)

So there you have it! I pick the following people to be the next subjects of this little experiment:

It’s been a while since SEAN has posted so he’s my first victim!

The Wiebners

Mary Crow

Whitney Carlson

Garrett Nudd

and Joy too!

Critsey Rowe

and Adrian Hitt. It’s about time my crazy face wasn’t at the top of her blog! :)
