Nashville Wedding Photography – Ryan & Jessica

Phil & Mindy — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:14:14 +0000

We were so stinkin’ excited when we met with Ryan & Jessica and they said that they had booked the Hutton Hotel for their wedding. This super new swanky hotel in downtown Nashville is so fun with so many great places to shoot. We decided to make this post chock full of images from our time with the bride & groom (well, and an additional detail shot) Yes, and for the record that second shot was taken in a girls bathroom in the Hutton! Hey, whatever works

Jessica and Ryan know how to work it and made our job easy. Enjoy!

London, Paris, Rome. Oh my!

Well we did it! We made it through our trip to Europe. The trip as a whole was far beyond what I think either of us expected. We visited London, Paris, the Loire Valley, Avignon, Venice, Florence, and Rome. We even had a few hours in Geneva, Switzerland. Obviously there will be a far more detailed posts with tons of photos and info but for now we just wanted to say hi to our readers before we leave in the morning for New Orleans. Yep, we had all of 2 nights in our own bed before heading back out of town but this trip should be well worth it. We are off to Pictage Partnercon in New Orleans. Phil will be speaking Tuesday, from 3:20pm – 4:20pm so if you plan on attending stop by and say hi. We will leave you with one quick photo we grabbed from the hundreds thousands we took.

Nashville Wedding Photography – Brent & Sarah

Phil & Mindy — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 13:00:08 +0000

Brent & Sarah were married at the lovely Riverwood Mansion. They were some of the few this summer that were able to pull off a beautiful outdoor ceremony without rain! We loved working with these two & their wedding was such a blast. Enjoy a few of our favorites!

Speaking Engagement – Pictage Partner Conference

Phil & Mindy — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 22:23:47 +0000

So, Phil has trouble tooting his own horn…so, my job as his wife is to toot it for him! Phil will be speaking at this year’s PartnerCon ( Pictage Partner Conference) in New Orleans, Tuesday, November 3, 3:20pm – 4:20pm. He was chosen as one of only 7 to speak in the Photographer’s Lounge. If you missed Phil’s SEO Nashville seminar, here’s your chance to get a small taste of what you missed. Hope to see you all there!

Nashville “Anytime” Session – Todd & Leslye

Phil & Mindy — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 22:29:52 +0000

Leslye & Todd are one of the cutest couples we’ve ever had the opportunity to photograph. They were married in a private ceremony back in June and asked us to shoot a session to celebrate! After we booked our session, we learned that Todd is in the band, The Carter Administration, that Phil and I use to see religiously back when we were dating. We knew from that point on, this would be a super fun shoot and we’ve been dying to share these images since we took them.

We love when clients have cool & different ideas for shoots. Anytime we can incorporate hobbies or passions into a session, it automatically gives it a great personal touch. In Todd & Leslye’s case, it was reading & eating hot dogs. (Ok, if you know me, I definitely relate to one of these and it certainly isn’t the intellectual one) Needless to say we were beyond excited to shoot at a hot dog stand and then all around downtown Nashville. Enjoy a few (try a lot) of our favorites!

Nashville Engagement Photography – Josh & Becca

Phil & Mindy — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 14:00:25 +0000

It’s Josh & Becca’s wedding week! Next Saturday, this super cute couple will be married in a brunch wedding at CJ’s off the Square. We thought in celebration of their upcoming wedding, we would finally post some images from their engagement session Josh & Becca met in class at Vanderbilt University. (Seriously, we have some super smart clients…intimidating much?!) It was so fun going with them back to campus to shoot in some of their favorite spots. We then got in a swanky mood and headed downtown. Enjoy a few of our favorites!

Franklin Family Photography – Justice Family

Phil & Mindy — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 00:10:14 +0000

A few weeks ago we had the opportunity to head out to Franklin to photograph this terrific trio. The show stealer in this session was, without a doubt, Hannah (sorry Linda & Scot!) This little girl is adorable! As we walked around shooting, Hannah discovered these 2 huge exhaust fans that were blasting out air. What does a kid do when they find such a thing? Stand in front of it and laugh of course! Luckily we were there to get some shots! Here are a few from their session, including a sequence with a little “behind the scenes” action. Notice Mindy’s hands reaching in to tickle a laugh out of Hannah on the second shot. We almost forgot to mention that Scott also happens to be the best small business accountant on the planet, you can check out his site here. Thanks again Linda, Scott & Hannah!

Nashville Wedding Photography – Tim & Julie

Phil & Mindy — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 14:00:14 +0000

Tim & Julie were married in a beautiful wedding at Scarritt-Bennett. These two are some of the coolest & calmest people we have ever worked with. Thanks, Tim & Julie, for being so great. A huge thanks also goes to Mindy with Ever After Weddings for keeping things running smoothly (and for having such an awesome name!). Enjoy!

Nashville Bridal Photography – Jamie

Phil & Mindy — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 19:36:59 +0000

Did you miss us? Sorry for the quiet blog last week, but we’re back with a sa-weet bridal session. Jeff & Jamie were married last Saturday, so we are excited to finally get to share these! When Jamie told us she had an idea to use a 1963 split window corvette in her shoot, we were stoked. It’s rare to get a girl who rather get photographed with a cool car, than doing the usual bridal portrait stuff. We were, of course, thrilled to do something new. Jamie, I think it paid off, if the reaction from Jeff on your wedding day was any indication. He kept looking at the images & saying “that’s my wife!”. Those kind of reactions make our day
