We are just so, so happy to be sharing some of our favorites from Lindsey and Dana’s Bridge Building wedding in Nashville, TN with you today! We have had the best time getting to know these two throughout the wedding process, from planning meetings, to their epic adventure engagement session at Lindsey’s family’s cabin in Wisconsin, to the wedding day. The way they welcomed us and invited us in to documenting these moments for them is such an honor, and we have loved every second of it!

Saturday was rainy, gray, chilly day, but that wasn’t about to slow down any part of the celebration! Lindsey and Dana met in San Diego, where Lindsey was living at the time and Dana was visiting from Nashville. After doing the long distance dating thing for awhile, they ended finally together, and eventually ended up back in Wisconsin, where Lindsey is from. When planning their wedding, they knew it had to be a Nashville destination wedding–to go back to their favorite city and a place that holds so many memories of their early relationship! They were so excited to share their city with all the friends and family who traveled in for the wedding. The Bridge Building, with it’s amazing views of the Nashville skyline was the perfect setting, and everyone partied the night away to Lindsey & Dana’s favorite band from their days in Nashville, The Chris Weaver Band. One of my favorite details was the “cheese cake”–a cake literally made from Wisconsin cheese. Amazing! It was a day full of emotion and excitement, quiet sweetness and lots of laughter. But we’ll let the photos tell the rest of the story:

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
