Getting to meet Courtney and Justin was such a bright spot during a very busy May photography weekend! I absolutely LOVE working with my wedding clients to plan out an engagement session that will be fun, relaxed, and of course, beautiful.

They wanted to practice some wedding posing, I wanted to hear about their beautiful Huntsville Catholic wedding this November (and of course take some great portraits of them.) The variable was, we had one very specific afternoon to do this while they were in town from Houston, TX and it rained most of the day leading up to the session.

Ana reached out to me on Instagram about having me out to Jackson, Tennessee to do their engagement session. I’d absolutely love to get out to West Tennessee more (looking at you Memphis brides!)

When I met her and her fiancé Jonathan, it was so clear why they picked the location they did!  Ana and Jonathan were such a joy to meet and work with and their love of Christ, Mary, and each other shown through with this session.

When we started planning K and S’s engagement session, they sent a new-to-me location that I visited the day before and instantly fell in love with. Ellington Agricultural Center has antebellum architecture, a gorgeous arched tunnel, multiple gardens and green spaces, and lush cedar trees.
