Elizabeth & Tyler- June 12, 2021

Elizabeth and Tyler said I do at a little church wedding in Rockvale, TN on a beautiful hot summer June day. They turned one of the church classrooms into and super cute getting ready room with a few banners and added mirrors and flowers and it was perfect! Liz finished getting ready and we decided to do the first look out under the shade trees and as I was placing Tyler with the best lighting, he admitted to knowing he was probably going to get a little emotional during this moment, which my heart so happy to hear. Guys don't be afraid to have a moment alone with your soon to be wife and let all those emotions out! No one else will be around and it's a moment just for the two of you to soak in that this is YOUR wedding day.

First looks are my absolute favorite part of a wedding day because we can go straight into the romantic couples photos and get some awesome shots with beautiful lighting. This tree line provided the perfect amount of shade at this time of day and I love those greens coming through in the background.

After we finished up the bride and groom portraits and family portraits we headed back inside to get everyone in place for ceremony time. While I was waiting and testing lighting and batteries the brides grandparents asked for a photo and told me a little bit of their own love story and how long they had been together which was super sweet!
