Michelle & Keegan :: Nashville Wedding Photography

Mark — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 04:06:51 +0000

She said she was going to wear a silver dress and red shoes. I had no idea what to expect. I’d never seen a bride in silver and red. Oh well. She did tell me that this would be a bit non-traditional. But when Michelle stepped out of the car at Sevier Park in Nashville, TN, I immediately thought to myself, “Why don’t all brides wear silver and red?” She was as lovely and elegant as I have ever seen.

My camera smiled…because it was going to be a good day!

We had an absolute blast photographing their wedding. I kinda wish they were getting married again so we could do it all over. (Hey! A photographer can wish!!!) Ooooor! maybe one of her lovely sisters or sister in law? Hmmmm!. Anyway, The Franceson and Brown family are wonderful people and its such a privilege to be forever a part of their lives.

Thanks Michelle, Keegan and Judy for trusting me with this awesome responsibility.

Big thanks to Sionnie LaFollette for capturing some great shots also!

Christa and Jim got married and the ceremony was just as lovely as I anticipated. On the grounds of the Old Natchez Country Club Christa and Jim became one. It was such a lovely ceremony and I had a great time. The bridesmaids were so much fun to be around and the groomsmen were too. I’m happy to have been apart of such a wonderful day and to be allowed to capture these moments for them…well, this is why I do it isn’t it?

Congratulations Christa and Jim. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed capturing them for you.

Nashville Wedding Photographer :: Rainbow Makers

Mark — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 09:33:22 +0000

Sometimes I worry that I’ll never witness another wedding that tops the wedding I just shot. Tina and Marcus quickly put those concerns to rest. They are rainbow makers.

That’s just what they do.

Warm and sincere, beautiful and cool, friendly, fun and inviting, they paint a rainbow over every person they meet. You see I had not met Tina and Marcus prior to their rehearsal but you would not have known it by how I was welcomed. They both are very genuine people and you get a real sense that they never meet a stranger. Their love for each other was equally apparent. Incredible, beautiful and favored is how Marcus described Tina at the end of rehearsal. He gathered everyone around and thanked us all for being there…for being a part of their special day. He spoke of the obstacles they had to overcome and how God had blessed them tremendously. As his words became labored and emotion began to take over, there was Tina with her arms around him. Holding him together. One heartbeat at a time.

At their wedding at the beautiful Gaylord Opyrland in Nashville, Marcus sang a beautiful song titled Rainbow Maker as Tina waited at the entrance and you could feel the love and emotion. It was coming from a secret place that, until then, was only known to Tina and Marcus. On this day, he let everyone know. He loved her!

As the day ended and the guests were leaving, Tina thanked me for being a part of their wedding. I thought to myself, “It’s not often I’m blessed to be in the presence of two people endowed with such beautiful spirits- to be surrounded and enveloped in their array of love, happiness, devotion and unity.”

Thank YOU Tina and Marcus for having ME.

You are rainbow makers. That’s just what you do. So I hope and pray these images paint a rainbow of beautiful memories…for you.

Nashville Engagement Photography :: Christa & Jim

Christa and Jim have been together for about two years now. It was so much fun photographing them at their home. They love each other and it shows. I was happy to be able to capture a few great moments for their engagement session and I look forward to their wedding next month. Its going to be a beautiful day. I’m sure of it.

Destination Wedding Photography :: A Day In The Sun

Mark — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 01:02:07 +0000

Everyone wants their day in the sun and this day belonged to Lindsay and Dan. On the sands of Cape Cod in West Dennis, MA, Lindsay and Dan made their vows to each other on a gorgeously beautiful day. I was happy to be there and meet friends and family. Lindsay was one of my instructors at school. So it was a bit nerve-wrecking that one of the people who critiqued and tutored me in my photographic education thought enough to ask me to photograph her wedding. Yikes! No pressure, right. I said yes and we came away with some amazing shots. I also had the pleasure of bringing with me a very talented photographer (also a future business partner ) from New York, Leslie Grow (lesliegrowimages.com) who also created some stunning imagery. Take a look.
