Britni + Justin

I've known Britni since 2007 when I got my first teaching job.  I had to invade her space during one class period since I didn't have my own classroom.  Throughout that year and since, I have learned that Britni is a passionate and most excellent teacher with the perfect English teacher sense of humor. I have so much respect for this lady for her dedication to her students and her profession.  And I'm jealous of the decor in her house. Then one day, I noticed she started posting pictures on social media of this Justin guy.  I knew right away that Britni had found someone special.  You see, Britni, as she says herself, already had a pretty good life - a great job that she loves, a new house full of custom made furniture, plenty of friends, and even a joy for running (I'm no runner, so I have even more respect for her!).  According to Britni, though, Justin made her life better.  What more could anyone want in a lifetime partner? Justin remembers the...

Madilyn & Tim

When my brilliant former student Madilyn asked if I would do her engagement session at my alma mater, of course my answer was emphatically, "Yes!"  Much like her answer to Tim's proposal!  Visiting TC was like returning home for me.  I'm pretty sure it's been at least six or so years since I've set foot on campus, so I was experiencing the wonder of Tennessee's oldest college as if it were my first time all over again.  Things have changed, but much has stayed exactly as I remembered.  I had forgotten, however, how magical the library was.  During my years at TC, the library underwent a huge addition, and the upgraded model is simply beautiful and truly the heart of the small campus.  I spent many days, especially in the last couple of years, locked away in this home-away-from-home of mine, and as I stated to Madilyn, I suppose this is where my love of libraries really began. Coincidentally, this same library was exactly where Madilyn and Tim's relat...

Beth & Brent

Most times men don't care much to have their picture taken.  Brent, however, was the most participatory male subject I've seen!  He was so relaxed with his "go with the flow" attitude that his bride-to-be began to become less nervous.  You can tell by watching these two that they have a perfectly balanced relationship.  That's what it's all about: balance.  Good thing they already seem to have this element figured out!  And…just how amazing is Beth going to look on her wedding day?!  She is stunning already, so be ready, Brent!  I suspect a few tears will be shed during that first look!  I wish the best for these two on their upcoming wedding and marriage!  I'm sure everything will be wonderfully beautiful and simply perfect!   Congratulations, Beth & Brent!  This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License .
