Thanks so much Clinton! Chelsea and I had a great time shooting these with you – here is a quick preview of some of our favorites from the shoot! You were a great sport and we enjoyed every bit of the session! (/plug) Clinton contacted us and said he was very interested in having me shoot his senior photos, and that he loved his jeep and was very active at church – we came up with more than a few images with this simple formula – - – here are a few to check out from the shoot!
Attention Groupon Students! To anyone wondering why they have not yet been scheduled:
We were only given a list of names by Groupon and those who filled out the form have been contacted in the order that the form was received. We call in large chunks of people, and today I called 16 people and only got 3 on the phone.
I can assure you we’re doing our best to schedule everyone but my assistant doing most of the scheduling generally only has a 10% success rate reaching people and most SCHEDULE with him then. Please, please be patient and i can assure you we’ll get you all taken care of!! We’ve already had 44 lessons this summer and many people have asked to do a 2nd and 3rd lesson based on how happy they were with the first one! Additionally, many people have requested to wait until fall when the weather was more predicable and slightly cooler!
Wow. Just Wow. Please forgive the poor edits here as we’re still recuperating from the quick trip to Florida and back but could not help but post a few of these shots out of shear excitement. I knew these were beautiful but man, this wedding takes the cake – perhaps its the good looking couple? Maybe its the magical Florida-Sunset, or perhaps the full moon, but I know one thing for sure . . . . The Oil did NOT keep us from getting in the ocean for some jaw-dropping “Trash the Dress” photos. Thanks again guys for being the most laid back couple I have EVER worked with, and a promise I’ve worked with some EXTREMELY relaxed couples. More photos coming later this week, and a few more quick picks after the jump > > > > Continue Reading…
Cedarwood is breathtaking . . . Somehow this was the first wedding we’ve shot there, but I will certainly say I cannot WAIT to go back and shoot there again, perhaps on a weekend when its slightly cooler than 104 Degrees. Kyle and Brandon are such a fun couple and their families are troopers for sticking out the heat and having an absolutely wonderful reception! They certainly know how to throw a good party! Thanks for everything guys and check out a few more quick photos after the jump > > > Continue Reading…
This is a slideshow of our lovely bride’s favorite photos. Mrs Stokes, thanks so much for such a beautiful set of photographs – - – we’re working hard getting your favorites edited for you.
Well, I got in from St. Louis after shooting some more Graduation Ceremonies this week and now I’m hard at work finishing up some virtual tours and editing Adrianna and Tony’s favorite picks from their Engagement Session. We also had a great meeting with Kaycee Wright the other day to discuss her 2011 Wedding and, once again this has been the busiest 5 weeks since I’ve been in business. Thanks to EVERYONE for understanding and bearing with us while we hire some extra help around here, and also thanks to all the photography students for putting up with our weather that has been messing up a lot of the scheduled photography lessons.
These past two weeks we’ve shot 7 Virtual tours, built 2 Real Estate Websites, Shot over 6300 College Graduate’s photos, and I personally am really looking forward to getting back into a regular schedule this week since graduation season is over!!
We’ve got a few really important weddings coming up @Kyle Callea @DianneSepe @JayBeebe @StevenSevatah and we can’t wait to start showing off our latest wedding work. Thanks again everyone for hanging in there with us while we try to get everything caught up. Tisha Harvey: We are DYING to show you your wedding photos, so let us know when you get back in town from your wonderful honeymoon!
Phones are ringing non-stop and while we’re doing our best to answer them, please know that we are also hiring some new help to keep the momentum going! I don’t know who decided to drink our koolaid this spring, but something has definitely stirred the pot! This month has unquestionably been our busiest month that we or I have had in my 7 yrs of self employment. What a great problem to have in this current economic atmosphere!!
Please understand if you’ve contacted us and have yet to hear back, we’re doing everything we can. I personally have shot 7 College graduation in the past 5 days, on top of 2 engagement sessions and 3 Brand New Real Estate websites!
Hey everyone! We’ve finally received what we believe to be ALL of the groupon surveys and will begin the scheduling process SUNDAY, May 2nd in hopes that everyone made it through the great flood!!! I would have begun calling today, but see wedding photos below as to what was taking up our time today! 
Beautiful wedding at Cathedral of Incarnation in Nashville TN, Follow the link below to see the whole gallery!
We sold over 130 Lessons this weekend and now it’s time to start scheduling!! My phone has been ringing off the hook all morning and I have just been informed that GROUPON does not release your EMAIL Addresses to me but they CAN send you an email with this LINK!! Yay!!
Why do I need this information?? So I can do my best to customize your class based on your needs!! If you want to learn NIGHT photography, my scheduling team needs to know that so we can schedule your lesson, wait for it . .. . . AT NIGHT!!! Before your lesson, please read and re-read MY FIRST PHOTOGRAPHY GUIDE so you’ll know or at least BE FAMILIAR with some of the terms I’ll be using.
Please fill out the form below in order for me to begin scheduling appointments . . . . which will be scheduled in the order received. Thanks so much and I look forward to working with all of you!!!

Some shoots are simply effortless . . . . some are much more difficult and almost feel like pulling teeth. Luckily, this one with Adrianna and Tony was the most easy going I’ve been involved in all year! We started by meeting at Peabody Campus of Vanderbilt, because our original plans of Centennial Park were marred by the Earth-Day festivities. Darn Earth Day – - haha! So we shot quite a few frames in the “more beautiful than I remembered” Peabody Campus and then went on to the Cathedral where they are getting married later this year . . . finally finishing up at the Nashville Walking Bridge. Below are a few samples, followed by many more after the jump
