Aspen Dental's After Party at the Wildhorse Saloon

Aspen Dental had their after party at the Wildhorse Saloon. It was a total blast! There was square dancing, there was a mechanical bull, there was a talent show, and Nick Cannon made a surprise appearance and DJed!

Brentwood Government Professional Portraits

I recently did some individual and group portraits for the Brentwood Government. Because the officers were incredibly busy, I did their portraits on location. I set up lights in the hallway and even in the courtroom. I see portraits as a collaboration between myself and the client. They are able to view the images during the shooting process and we don't wrap up the shoot until I am certain they are satisfied with the images we shot. I would hate to be that photographer who took a bad picture of someone, so we don’t call it a day until they are satisfied.

Need some professional portraits made of you and your team? Contact me and let’s get it scheduled!

After 7 Album Shots

Valassis Digital Event and Branding Photography

Valassis Digital threw a dinner party for guests that attended a marketing conference here in Nashville. They thought it would be a nice way for prospective clients to remember them. They held the dinner at BLVD Restaurant and had Top Chef Arnold Myint prepare the dinner and even put on a cooking demo. They not only hired me to take photographs of the event, but also to capture images that communicated their branding. Branding Photography plus Event Photography equates to a great night of photography all the way around!

Check out some other events I’ve shot.

Thailand Stock Photography Shoot

One of the things I love about being a photographer is being able to make my own schedule, which allows me time to travel. The best kind of travel is when I can work while I’m on the road!

This past holiday season I went to Thailand to shoot stock, and I won’t lie, to get out of the cold for a little bit. I love my job!

Here are just a few of the photos that I took on this trip.

Stay tuned for a possible upcoming photography workshop to Thailand that I will be hosting with Atmology Travels.

Home Builders Association of Tennessee Holiday Party and Awards Ceremony

Jesse & Chris

Jesse and Chris got married on a sunny Fall day. Their wedding took place at the beautiful Red River Farms in Springfield just north of Nashville. The ceremony took place on the pretty grounds there. I especially loved how there was a big door in the middle of the field that the bride could enter when beginning her walk down the aisle-gorgeous!

Diskin Cider

Diskin Cider had an all-day party celebrating Women’s Day. There was a barbeque, lots of vendors, and games outside. A DJ started the party and the band Thelma and the Sleaze finished the night off. It was a great celebration!

Going Away Party at Vanderbilt

I photographed a farewell reception for Dr. Kim Lomis. She had been one of the deans at Vanderbilt’s School of Medicine for twenty years. It was heartwarming to see her honored by her students and colleagues.

Emily's Maternity Shoot

Emily's about to have a baby! 

A maternity shoot was in order. She knew she wanted to have images of her to remember the time when she was pregnant, but she was hoping for something a little different than standard maternity photos. She wanted to have images that celebrated her love of Nashville so I suggested we shoot on the Pedestrian Bridge.

The Pedestrian Bridge is great. Not only can you see Nashville in all its urban splendor, but walk down the stairs to the river and you can get some great photos in nature. It's like having the best of both worlds! 

We were lucky to have beautiful blue skies for our shoot, and because we did the shoot super early in the morning, it wasn't too crazy hot. 

Commercial Shoot for Music City Mustard

Music City Mustard is an artisanal mustard made here in Tennessee, but inspired by the creator's visits to Austria.

People mingled, learned about cybersecurity, and left with a great book signed by the author. 

Opening Ceremony for Veterans Business Outreach Center

Pathway recently opened a Veterans Business Outreach Center. Supported by the Small Business Administration, its purpose is to help those transitioning out of the military to start a business. Mayor David Briley as well as other civic leaders spoke. Afterwards, there was a luncheon on Pathway's grounds. It was a fantastic day and wonderful to see Nashville have such a wonderful new center for veterans. 

Universal Threads at Target

O Hello Media hired me to shoot the premiere of Universal Threads in one of their Nashville Target stores. For that day only, customers could get their name embroidered on a piece of Universal Threads clothing they purchased. It was a great marketing technique that everyone enjoyed!

Nut Butter Nation

Have you heard of Nut Butter Nation? It's an amazing peanut butter made right here in Nashville. Not only is it local, but it comes in a variety of delicious flavors like Salted Caramel and Honey Vanilla. Once you open the jar you can't stop-it's sooooo good. 

I did some product and lifestyle shots for their marketing. Check them out and make sure to check out Nut Butter Nation if you haven't!
