Louis and Megan's Downtown Knoxville Engagement
We have known this couple forever, and we are thrilled to share these sweet engagement photos with the world. Megan and Louis are some of our best friends, and both were in our wedding, Louis serving as our best man. This shoot and couple are obviously super special to us.
We met our friends at the Williams Creek Golf Course where we captured some cute action shots of the two playing golf, a favorite past time for the couple. We love that this course features beautiful scenery including a small pond and rolling hills that provided the backdrop for their photos. From there, we traveled to Market Square for some more urban shots amongst the always bustling park and along the shops and streets of the area.
To say that we are excited to attend and photograph their wedding in the Dominican Republic next month is an understatement. After 11 years together and our many memories shared with Louis and Megan, we can't wait to see these two tie the knot!

Chelsea and Luke's Cove Park Engagement
Chelsea and Luke are truly a couple that are meant to be. After parting ways when they were a bit younger, the two reunited and have been together ever since. We loved that these two wanted to spend their day with us in the parks of West Knoxville, and we were even more thrilled that they brought their two adorable pups along for the fun.
We started our afternoon with this sweet couple at the Cove at Concord Park where we captured moments of them strolling on the beach, adventuring out onto a ledge in the water, and admiring the beautiful fall colors. Late October was truly the perfect time for an engagement shoot in order to capture all of the changing colors but still have some nice, warm weather.
From here, we traveled to Walker Springs Park to spend a little time on the picturesque bridge capturing this couple as well as snapping some lovely moments of the entire family (obviously, dogs included) playing amidst the multicolored fall leaves. Although we did get rained on a bit at the end of shoot, Chelsea and Luke were troopers, and we really enjoyed parading through the parks with them.
We are super excited about Chelsea and Luke's wedding at the Crowne Plaza in April, but, in the meantime, enjoy these tender moments from the Vol fans' engagement shoot!

Amanda and Billy's Sunrise Engagment Shoot
We met up with this adventurous couple, Billy and Amanda, at 6:30 am in Sequoyah Park. Even though the overcast day never provided us with the true sunrise we were looking for, we were so thrilled to mix up our normal routine with a daybreak shoot. As soon as we heard their story, we knew we would be starting their engagement session here as this is quite a meaningful location that the two frequent. This is also why we included the adorable cell phone pictures depicting their actual engagement in the same spot during our shoot.
Everything about this session celebrated the lives of these two from the shots cuddling on the quilt (which Billy and Amanda often do together) to the photos taken at Old City Java (a place that they often go for their caffeine fix). Billy shared with us that when the visit the coffee shop, he writes personalized messages on Amanda's cup, so we really wanted to incorporate that special sentiment of the two composing sweet messages for each other.
We so enjoyed spending time with these two love birds, and we are even more excited to capture their big day at Nolichucky Vineyard in October. Enjoy this morning engagement session of an amazing couple, Amanda and Billy.
Danielle & Justin - Downtown Knoxville and UT Gardens Engagement
What an amazingly fun day we had exploring Knoxville with this awesome couple, Danielle and Justin. Their session started with iced coffee and sweets in Market Square from the best coffee shop in town, Coffee and Chocolate. Next, we took a stroll with the two through the park and over to Gay street in order to capture some sweet moments with the famous Tennessee Theatre sign.
In keeping with this fun-loving duo's hobbies, the two brought cards from a favorite game as well as dice, which kept the shoot lighthearted and true to their natures. We loved how Danielle and Justin ran straight to the Kool Aid man and Mario Brothers graffiti in the alley, reinforcing how truly playful and comfortable they are (and check out that posing...love it!). We also really wanted to grab some shots of the two riding their bikes on the greenway, since this is something they frequently do together. Our day ended at the UT Gardens for some more romantic photos of the couple and sincere moments of love and joy shared between the two.
We can't wait for Danielle and Justin's unique wedding to be held on the Volunteer Princess next May, but for now, enjoy this sweet shoot in downtown Knoxville.
Stephanie & Greg - Knoxville Botanical Gardens Engagement
Stephanie and Greg's engagement shoot at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens and Arboretum was a blast for all of us. Talk about a sweet couple! Their positive attitudes and sincere love shine through in these photos, but when we look at this shoot, we think, "Those eyes!" (seriously both of them...stunning)
When Greg and Stephanie pulled up in his truck, we knew immediately that we were going to utilize the old truck on the property, and we are so glad that we did. The candid moments of the two together in the truck (despite the fact that it was almost 90 degrees and they were roasting) are truly some of our favorites.
We are so excited to shoot Stephanie and Greg's wedding in September at St. John Neumann Catholic Church in Farragut followed by their reception at Embassy Suites, and we feel so honored to share in their joy.
Take a stroll with this couple in the gardens today and enjoy!
Inara & Cody - Ijams Nature Center and Meads Quarry Engagement
We are loving this sunny summer weather and were so excited to spend an evening with this adorable couple at Mead's Quarry at Ijams. Inara and Cody are a ridiculously cute and super stylish pair. These two were game for anything during this shoot, and we loved Inara's carefree spirit as she simply kicked off her wedges to do a little rock climbing for some amazing shots with her future hubby.
We can't wait for this couple's wedding in November at The Stables at Hunter Valley Farm which will feature neutral tones and be vintage inspired.
Enjoy these moments from Inara and Cody's playful engagement session!
