Well I have realized that I have not been a great blogger lately. Summer sort of threw me a curve ball with trying to balance work and the kids being at home. So I had to t hrow something away- which was this blog! But, I am back to work and the kids are in school. Funny enough the next thing I wanted to blog was Brad + Brittany's wedding and their engagement session was the last thing I posted.
Brad + Brittany were married last weekend at Houston Station in Nashville, TN. It was a sweet, intimate ceremony with a kick ass party afterward. I have known Brad (or as I knew him as Bradley) since he was a little boy. As I said in the previous post, I was his babysitter. And, yes, that makes me feel very old. This past Saturday, I was spending time in the room with Brittany and her bridesmaids as they were getting ready. And, first, let me say what a calming presence Brittany was the entire day. She never appeared to be stressed and truly seemed to enjoy every moment. It was a true delight to be in those moments with her and her friends. In the midst of my time with Brittany, I walked out in the hall and ran into Brad & his Mom. He was wearing his tux and I seriously almost started to cry. It was such a sweet moment for me as a photographer who is also just a girl from Arkansas who never imagined she would be doing this for a living. And could have never imagined that someday she would be photographing sweet little Bradley's wedding. It was one of those moments in life that seems so surreal. I tried to breathe it in and just remember that life is really that good sometimes.
I am truly honored that they chose me to spend this time with them and document their love for one another. Here are a few of my favorite images from their day. And a big shout out to my amazing second shooter Weatherly Hulsey! I could not do it without her!
