i loved these from their first look. lawrence was just soooo sweet.

The Dirty Guv'nahs. Best Band in Knoxville!

May

The Dirty Guv'nahs were just voted the Best Band in Knoxville for the 3rd year in a row. They were also voted Best Rock Band and Best local CD release! I cannot tell you how proud I am of these guys. They work so hard and are so passionate about what they do. It has been an unbelievable ride since April of 2005!!!! which was their very first show. Their list of accomplishments keeps getting longer and longer and it has been a true honor to be there every step of the way with them. As most of you know, they spent much of the month of December up in Woodstock, NY at the Levon Helm Studio recording an album. That album will finally be out in late July, and I can tell you right now, you are going to be BLOWN away!!!!!!

The Dirty Guv'nahs have also had a recent addition to the band. His name is Cozmo Holloway and has been a long time friend of the band. So with the release of the new CD we needed to take some new pictures of the band with our new member. We went up to Chris Doody's farm last week and had some amazing light. Here are some of my favorite shots!

the one on the left is pretty hot huh?? yea, that would be my husband! :)

chris and elizabeth. engagement session

May

i have been so excited about these two getting married it is not even funny! chris is in the dirty guv's with my husband and one of my favorite things about him being in the band has been getting to know his oh so awesome fiance! not only is elizabeth drop dead gorgeous, but she is seriously one of the most fun people you will ever meet. chris's family owns a farm in townsend and we just knew it would be the perfect place for their engagement session. we had the most perfect weather and the farm was just absolutley gorgeous. hot couple + beautiful tennessee = engagement session heaven!! here are just some of my favs!

i love you both and cannot wait until your wedding!!

lauren and tyler. engagement session

May

i have known lauren for many years now. my sister, whitney, and lauren are the same age and we all grew up in the same neighborhood together. it is still a strange thing to see my sister and her friends to grow up, fall in love, get married, all that good stuff. i still envision them as these cute little middle schoolers getting dressed up for a big dance! i do have to say i was so excited when it worked out for me to photograph lauren's wedding. she is so cute, creative, sweet, and fun. i had heard such great things about tyler as well, and i do have to say, they all seem to be true. lauren had a great vision for her engagement session and i am just so happy that the weather held out long enough for us to bring it to life. i just had the best time hanging out with them, photographing their sweet love for each other. i can't WAIT til their wedding!!
