Changes are Coming! | Nashville Wedding Photographers

For weeks I have been SO excited and so on edge about sharing this news, and waiting for when it would officially be true 🙂 Now that it is…I’m not even sure where to start! So I guess I’ll “Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.”

Ever since Chris and I were married, we knew that when Chris graduated, we would be moving away from Bowling Green. We just didn’t know where. In the past year or so we have thrown around all kinds of ideas (and prayed  a TON!)…from Charleston to Lexington to St. Louis and more. Enter our fabulous friends in Nashville. We began traveling to Nashville once a month for SMUG meetings, and have just been completely blown away by how encouraging and wonderful the wedding community is. We’ve made amazing friends with photographers, planners, etc. Not to mention, Nashville is such an amazing city!

After one SMUG meeting, I found myself eating dinner across from Jonathan Campbell and next to Kristen Steele. I mentioned how Nashville was one of the places we had thought about moving, and they were super encouraging and pretty much talked me into it then and there! Added to the conversation I had had earlier in the day with some other fabulous friends (and photographers), I was sure that Nashville was where we needed to be 🙂 (Chris, luckily, was in agreement haha).

Skipping all the boring and stressful things that came between then and now….we have put a deposit down an apartment, and will officially be residents of Nashville by mid-June! Chris is graduating from WKU this Saturday (I am SO PROUD OF HIM!!!), then it’s just a few weeks for packing and vacation, then we will be in Nashville. It doesn’t even seem real yet! But we are so excited!! I am so thankful for everyone who has helped us and given suggestions while we planned our relocation…you all are awesome 🙂

We can’t wait to build even better friendships with the friends we already have down there, make new friends, be a part of such an amazing community, and live in a new city! Not to mention, I am SUPER excited about the fabulous brides we will (hopefully!) be meeting! Bowling Green has been great, and we will miss our wonderful friends here. It’s also been a great little city for my business, and I know I wouldn’t be where I am today without it 🙂 But changes are comin’….and we will see you in Music City!

And, because no post is complete without a picture…I leave you with this picture from late 2005. Me and Chris, playing Apples to Apples in the dorm lobby of Barnes Campbell Hall. We barely knew each other here…and didn’t start dating until late 2006. Let’s just say it’s funny how God works….and I couldn’t be more thrilled!

*On a separate note, we have been so heart broken watching all the news of the flooding in Nashville, and watching our family and friends pick back up their lives. We were able to go down one day and help my cousin, but haven’t been able to do much from afar 🙁 Many thanks to everyone who has been able to help and donate to flood relief, and keeping us updated with pictures and Twitter and such!
