I am so incredibly honored and excited (like the real deal jumping up and down kind of excited) to have Brittany and Jeff's Nashville wedding featured today on Vera Wang's Vera Unveiled blog!

This feature is extra special, not only because Brittany is a friend of mine from college, but also because I got to work with so many AMAZING wedding professionals, many of whom are fellow Alpha Sigma Tau alumnae, on this beautiful event.

I have to admit that I feel a little small to even be on the same web page as the Vera Wang logo - her work is so iconic and the brand is just so big - I mean, come on, who DOESN'T know the name Vera Wang? But I am so so so grateful for the opportunity to be featured on her site, and I am forever indebted to my incredible brides and grooms and the crazy awesome teams of wedding professionals that I get to work with at each and every wedding for helping to make my dreams (that often seem too big to ever be possible) come true.

A huge thank you to Jacob and the rest of the team at Vera for featuring our work!

In honor of this pretty lady's birthday today, I am thrilled to post this sweet engagement session from the weekend (HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLAIRE!!!). This past Sunday, after a 12-hour day of photographing the lovely wedding of Kristin+Read, I got up bright and early just as the sun was rising to drive to Franklin to photograph this precious couple. For those of you who know me well, you know that super early mornings are definitely not my thing, so Claire+Spence - you two should feel extra loved :)​

I met Claire a couple of years ago through my friend Kaley, and since then, she has become one of my dearest friends. She's kind, funny, and one of the most GORGEOUS people I know (personally, I think she could pass for Olivia Wilde), and she and her fiancé Spence together are so much fun to be around and just way too adorable ​for words. They'll be getting married next winter at aVenue in downtown Nashville, and I am just giddy with anticipation for their wedding.

Fueled by delirium and Starbucks, we started our session in downtown Franklin. I've always loved this area on the outskirts of Nashville... it's just so cute and quaint.​

After we wrapped up downtown, we headed out to the little  town of Leiper's Fork ​for a country feel and some fence climbing. I was mildly obsessed with having the General Lee lookalike in the background there...
