downtown nashville engagement session around the gulch // nashville tn engagement photographer // paige and carter

"We're sappy, goofy, and kind; affectionate, thoughtful, and... ALIVE." 

This is how Paige described her and Carter in her initial email to me, and after meeting them... man did she hit the nail on the head. Then she said she'd be getting married in a red dress AND that they're getting married in an old-theater-turned-swanky-restaurant?! OH HELLS YES. SIGN ME UP GIRL. SO glad they decided to put their trust in me. Here's a few of my favorite from their engagement session in & around the Gulch in downtown Nashville.
P.S. sorry the songs a little sappy for such a happy session, but I couldn't *not* use a Jason Isbell song since Paige and I also share an obsession with him. 

jordan & jessica: casual in-home e-session // nashville, tn engagement photographer

if you don't like dogs, a. we're not friends and b. this post isn't for you. meet jordan and jessica and their fur babies, charleston & bella. 

i actually went to high school with jordan and kind of ran in the same soccer circle so it was fun to see him in this totally different role ten years later as a fiance and homeowner with a big boy job and the hip haircut to boot. and jessica is the perfect partner for him, also a go-getter in business and life (hello running every morning!? #GOALS number 78 that's I'll never achieve) and she has this no-nonsense-but-still-nice/approachable air about her that I always admire in other women.

anyway, absolutely cannot wait for their riverwood mansion wedding next year! I mean if they look this good in t shirts, well you can only imagine them all dolled up. jeez. 
signing off now, enjoy! 

Dog jealousy is a real thing y'all:

this section of our session was at shelby park in east nashville. note to self: bring dog treats next time to bribe dogs' attention.
