Emotional Backyard Wedding in Nashville, TN

This backyard wedding was boho, intimate, and super emotional. Katie, Chip, and I became instant friends from the very start. They had their wedding at Chip’s parents house in Nashville, Tennessee. Their backyard was already gorgeous, but the tent and the decorations took it to another level. Now when I say this backyard wedding was emotional, I mean there were more tears of joy shed on this day than any other wedding I have ever experienced. 

Don’t believe me? Go take a look at their first look photos down below. Their first look was so emotional, they shared private vows and read letters to each other. Tears were streaming from both of their eyes, and in turn, I was having a hard time seeing through the viewfinder myself to snap the photos. 

Katie + Chip are the true definition of a couple who have gone through hardships and come out the other side even stronger. They have weathered hardships from the death of a parent, life changes, the pandemic, moving, a new house and home renovations, and so much more. Even in those tough seasons, their joy was (and still is) completely radiant because they get to do life together.

One of my favorite parts of being a wedding photographer is getting to go on the planning journey with my couples. I get to help them make all of their dreams come true and then watch them happen in real life. From the very beginning, Katie + Chip wanted nothing more than a boho flair to their backyard wedding. They worked tirelessly to make Chip’s parent’s backyard the perfect space for their backyard wedding that fit right into their dreams for the day. I loved being able to get a front row seat and be a helping hand through it all!

Now go grab your tissues (you’re going to need them) and check out this gorgeous, boho backyard wedding!

Still looking for a photographer for your wedding day? Let’s chat!

Moments are constantly fleeting. That sounds depressing at first, but I don't mean it that way. More so, this reality gives me an incredible importance as a wedding photographer to capture the future memory within that moment as it truly happened. Isn't that a beautiful thing?

I'm not interested in photographing fabricated version of you or your day. I want to photograph the real stuff. The tears, laughs, and stolen glances... Your guests dressed to the nines and bringing the party on the dance floor. And mostly, the unplanned, undeniably-you moments during one of the biggest celebrations of your life.

If you're looking for a documentary-style photographer who appreciates all of the big and small moments, who will make your guests feel seen and known, and who truly cares about storytelling every moment that makes your day yours, you've found your match.

As your photographer, I believe in photographing who you actually are.
