Lindsey and Joseph, Signal Point

Signal Point, rich in historical significance, is also extremely important to Lindsey and Joseph.

Yes, you guessed it! Joseph popped the question here and if you look at the slideshow you will see a reenactment.

Annie and John

Annie is one of the nicest young ladies we have had the privilege to meet. I photographed her high school senior pictures and we were blessed to photograph her sister's wedding. We have known her for several years and consider her a family friend.

Photobucket

This was a lot of fun and John is a really great guy. We wish you both the very best.

Bubby

Bubby came to see us for his ten-month-old pictures. As you can see he is personality plus! He really enjoyed himself.

Photobucket

At this age a picture showing those little baby rolls is fun.

Photobucket

I just love this one!

Catherine & Steven, Chattanooga Reception

Steven's family is from Scotland (he grew up very close to St. Andrews, the hallowed birthplace of the greatest game ever - GOLF). ((Terry wrote that.)) Catherine is from Signal Mountain, TN and they met in Prague, Czech Republic! The marriage was in Samoa and Catherine's mom, Eleanor, arranged for a wonderful reception at the Walden Club, downtown Chattanooga.

Photobucket

Marty Hayward and The Answer Band from Atlanta, GA provided some terrific music and entertainment (email mahay209530@aol.com).

Photobucket

I just can't brag enough about our city. Chattanooga, TN is an exciting place to live. We just love it here.

Photobucket

Eleanor and her life-long friends,The Mountain Mommas, from Signal Mountain sang a beautiful rendition of The Dixie Cups, "Going to the Chapel." I believe Catherine felt a lot of love from her family and friends. It was certainly a lovely evening.

Elise, Mark & Jenna (with baby brother due soon)

Photobucket

Jenna will soon have to share the spotlight.

Dillon & Chad, Engagement

So for all of you reading this, guess where we were? If you guessed the Chattanooga Choo Choo, you were right? This was a special place for Dillon. Her dad was a member of a local rock n roll band that played regularly at the Choo Choo. Dillon remembers being there with him and, while the band played, she would be exploring the gardens and grounds.

Across the street from the Choo Choo are some old Chattanooga buildings, presently awaiting remodeling. The Southside is becoming a revitalized area in our super city. A lot of artists are locating their studios in that area.

Photobucket

Anyway, we had a great time with Dillon and Chad. I hope you will take time to check out their slideshow.

Post from Becca & Keith:

Congratulations Karen & Mike! Though the weather wasn't quite what we were hoping for, the day was certainly not a disappointment. Everything went so perfectly and it really turned out to be a beautiful, enjoyable wedding. The Grandview once again provided an outstanding location. You guys are so easy to work with. Keith and I had a great time.

Here is your slideshow.

Here are a few favorites:

Laura's Garden did an outstanding job with the flowers.

Bethany & Robert, Wedding, April 5, 2008

Bethany and Robert are an absolutely awesome couple. We looked forward to photographing their wedding for a lot of different reasons. First of all, they have an inward and outward beauty that is exceptional. Secondly, I photographed the wedding of Kay & Bob (Bethany's mom and step-dad) a number of years ago. Another reason was that we were able to reconnect with old friends including one of my former art teachers! His daughter was one of the bridesmaids. I could go on but here are some of my favorites.

The music was excellent both before and after the ceremony. A tip of the hat to the Adonia Trio.

Photobucket

The Hunter Art Museum is a spectacular venue. Beginning with the modern architecture that allows the bride and groom to make a "grand" entrance and ending with the lights of Northshore Chattanooga and the Walnut Street bridge.

Photobucket

Photobucket

We all thoroughly enjoyed the wedding and reception. Ashleighs Weddings Jim O'Dell, Lee Towery, Vicky Buff (beautiful cake), Jessica Power (yes, our daughter Jessica is a wedding coordinator), and Bart Rollins with The 1969 Band (a most excellent band!), did an outstanding job. Special acknowledgment to Jennifer Lepere for her excellent photographs and assistance.

Also make sure you check out Shane Zerangue's website for his very talented and creative video of the wedding.
