Brandt Photography

Rebekah contacted us looking to have some couples photographs done with her husband. She told me they didn’t know what to expect, but wanted something romantic. They were a little nervous when we met, but got into the ession almost as soon as we started.

It’s not secret that romance photography is my favorite. Rebekah and Mark were the perfect couple to work with, They are so into each other, and their love for one another just comes out in every look they give each other. They were playful, romantic, and fun! Rebekah is absolutely stunning, and they both made my job easy.

Norris Dam State Park is absolutely beautiful for photography. The peaceful locations, historic architecture, and peaceful atmosphere help make it a great place for romantic imagery. It made for a perfect background for these two. It had rained just a short while before, and the fog across the river came up to add to the session. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, and I couldn’t have asked for a nicer couple!

If you’ve followed me on Twitter or Facebook, you have probably seen me mention Brad Blackwell before. He is a very talented local artist who won a singer/songwriter contest last year. He already has one album out (Blue Sky), as well as an EP, and is currently working on a new album to come out soon.

I feel very honored and fortunate that he chose us to photograph him for his upcoming album. We’re planning on doing a couple of different sessions at different locations. These photos here were from a couple of days ago. I love the fact that he let us put him in the river (with his guitar no less!) and play around a bit.

If you get a chance, check out his music. Several of his songs are played on The River 106.1 and he can be playing found at several local spots around town (including Mulligan’s, Willies, and the Wild Wing Cafe). He has a show coming up on June 30th at The Square Room as well! It wouldn’t surprise me to see him on the national scene very soon!

Here are a few more images from this session:

Taylor

We had a lot of fun with Talyor’s senior portrait session. He is studying to be a mechanic and wanted to include his love of vehicles in some of the imagery.

Senior portrait sessions include three themes, so we did a studio session, along with going to the garage to take photos of him there, along with his family’s camero. We finished up at the Norris Dam grist mill for some relaxed portraits.

I shot some of the gears laid out on the workbench and used them for backdrops (like the image above).

Ashley & Ben

Ashley and Ben chose one of our favorite places for their engagement session. The grist mill at Norris Dam State Park has some wonderful imagery. Along with the rustic look of the threshing barn, the stream passing by both buildings, and the gorgeous autumn colors, we had an incredible background!

Ashley and Ben were a lot of fun to work with. We’ve known Ashley for years through our daughters, but I hadn’t met Ben until they came to book our services. Seeing the two of them together, you can tell they are truly in love.

The autumn colors that day were incredible. They couldn’t have picked a better day for their engagement session. Here are a few more images from their session: Read More

We had a beautiful summer day for Angela & Shane’s engagement session. The threshing barn was a beautiful backdrop, and the two of them were a lot of fun to work with! We also went across the road to the river, which had fog rolling across the water. That made for some really mystical imagery!

This is probably my favorite engagement so far session this year. Jessica and Garry are a wonderful couple. It was easy to see how much in love they are. These are the couples that just affirm what I love about romance photography. It’s not about the photograph, the session, or anything like that. It is all about the two of them and the love they have for each other. I am always honored to capture couples like this.

We had a wonderful time up at the Norris Dam Grist Mill. I even had a hard time picking out just a few images to include below, so you will have to excuse any delays in loading the slideshow – there were just too many beautiful images! Read More
