McGee-Tarver Wedding

The big day that Christy & Ben had been dreaming of and planning for finally arrived late May. We felt so privileged to be a part of this wonderful couple's wedding which took place in Knoxville.

Christy & bridesmaids had the morning to try to relax and prepare for the fun to come:

Ben & his groomsmen had some fun of their own:

The ceremony was perfect:

Too many tender moments to count:

We loved this moment captured perfectly in a single image:

The happy couple departed for their CRUISE honeymoon! (Which I hear was fabulous.)

Ben & Christy - we wish you two a life full of great blessings and happiness!

Ben and Christy's E-Session

I've known Ben and Christy for a while now (from college) and never thought I would have the chance to shoot their wedding. I had another booking the day that they had chosen. Due to some rather sad circumstances (the groom for the other wedding passed away) we came available on their day. As a side note, our thoughts continue to be with the bride-to-be and the grooms family in their loss.

On a much lighter note, this session was fun! I had taken pictures of Ben and Christy before, so we worked very well together (another reason to have an engagement session). We spend a couple hours in downtown Knoxville walking, talking, and climbing trees! Here are a few of my favorite pictures.
