Hello, everyone!

We hope you all are enjoying this lovely spring! Today we are throwing it back to recap a lovely intimate winter wedding at The Red House in Franklin! Andrew & Hirono were married in a sweet ceremony just a few days after Christmas. They originally met in TN when Hirono was studying abroad, but now both live in Japan. They were coming back to TN for Christmas, and decided to get married while they were here! Andrew’s mom helped pull together such a beautiful and meaningful celebration for them, full of warm hospitality, incredible Nashville food, and the perfect personal touches. Their laid back reception included one of my very favorite things that you find around Nashville: a writer’s round with Grammy award winner Ed Hill & friends (if you’ve never been to one, during writer’s rounds, a group of songwriters get together and alternate singing songs that they wrote–often times that were recorded and made famous by popular artists–and telling the stories behind the songs that you know so well. It’s the best!). We got to meet Andrew and Hirono the day of the wedding, and I was immediately struck by just how sweet and joyful they are together. They were so happy to be celebrating with the people they loved most–both those who were there in person and those who were there in spirit.

On to some of our favorites from the day!

Congratulations again, Andrew & Hirono! We so loved celebrating with you all, and hope you have been loving settling in to married life!

Thanks to all the vendors who helped it be such an amazing day, including: Planning/Venue: Our Red House | Dress Shop: Fabulous Frocks | Flowers: Rebel Hill Florist | Tuxes: Street Tuxedo | Cake: Dulce Desserts | Video: Justin+Hannah | Catering: Edley’s BBQ & South Fork | Music: Ed Hill & Friends

Thank you all for stopping by the blog, and I hope you’re having a great week! If you’re planning an intimate wedding or elopement and are looking for a laid back photography experience to document every sweet moment, we’d love to talk more with you!

Have a great week, friends!

BEHIND THE LENS

A note from Jen

Purpose and passion and the lessons of over 17 years of weddings...

I'm writing this today staring out at the bright blue Colorado sky, near Boulder, CO where I live with my husband of nearly 17 years and our 8 year old son. We moved here to chase the mountains and adventure and a life fully lived, after over a decade in Nashville, TN. 

It might seem silly to say that I believe part of my purpose here on this earth is creating photos at people’s weddings. But here’s the thing. Life is absolutely going to life. There are going to be days and seasons that are freaking hard and awful and the world feels like it’s burning down (literally, metaphorically, in all the ways). And there are going to be days full of so much love and joy and bliss and peace that you wish you could just bottle it up for all time.

And I feel so strongly that that’s WHY a wedding matters. And why your photos matter. And why making it so intentional and purposeful to you matters. To create the space to intentionally create beautiful new memories together. Because it’s a weekend to say that this love (yes, all love) and these people (yes, all people) MATTER. It exists. It is real. And it’s worth celebrating the f*** out of. In a radical defiance of everything telling us to be scared and wall up our hearts.



And it’s worth documenting. My purpose in this is to be present with what’s there on your wedding day—all the joy, love, and whatever else is showing up—and creating the record of it. A record of what is true to you. So that when the days hit hard, you can point back at this anchor of joy and love, and know that it exists. It is real. It is worth celebrating.

Sending all the love, wherever this journey of life is meeting you today. xoxo, Jen
