Casey & Jonathan = A Hermitage Hotel Wedding ~ Murfreesboro Wedding Photographer ~

Casey and Jonathan Miley wed this past Saturday at the historic Hermitage Hotel. Surrounded by their closest friends and family the two shared a beautiful wedding day full of love, laughter, and sweet memories. Jonathan practices law and some called Casey a bit crazy for planning a wedding while studying for the bar exam. She received her passing score the day before the wedding. Talk about a stress relief and one big accomplishment! I can't imagine, but she pulled it off with flying colors. It was an honor to witness this sweet wedding and be a part of such a special day. I hope you two love your sneak peek.. Congrats again Mr. and Mrs. Miley! :)

Caitlin Senior Prom ~ Murfreesboro Senior Photographer ~

This is going to be a bit of a personal post. As many of you know, I married the man of my dreams last May and  I was blessed with a new sister-in-law. I could go on and on about how Caitlin impresses and inspires me. I am so lucky I am able to call her my family and most importantly, my friend. I won't go into grand detail about just how awesome she is, but I have to brag on her huge accomplishment of being valedictorian of her graduating class. Not only is Caitlin smart, but she is absolutely beautiful both inside and out.  Saturday was her prom and I couldn't help posting some pictures we took at Centennial park.

This is her sweet friend Morgan. I wish I had been able to make it the park in time to take pictures of all her sweet friends, but I unfortunatly got stuck in traffic. They were a good looking group!

Luke 3 Days Old ~ Murfreesboro Newborn Photographer ~

Luke was welcomed into the world last week by two loving parents, Heather and Otto. He is making his first blog debut at only 3 days old. One thing we won't have to worry about with this little guy is him ever streaking, because he HATED being naked! We tried and tried for those sweet naked shots and he just wasn't having it. So, mommy put him in some clothes, he went right to sleep, and then the magic happened. :) This shoot was so important because Luke's dad, Otto, will be shipping out on his third deployment to Afghanistan on the 18th of this month. Although they will have little time together at first, Heather explained, "This is all we know." Being together six years they have seen many nights apart as Otto so bravely served his country.  Now, he will be missing two loves for the 9 months he will be overseas. I am sure this little guy will become quite familiar with FaceTime and I personally would love to witness the sweet homecoming of this solider to his family. Otto- I thank you for your service to this country and I will pray for your safety daily as well as the safety of your sweet wife and baby. It was a pleasure to get to know you guys and to document such a special time in your life.  I hope you enjoy the sneak peek! -J

Sage 8 Months ~ Murfreesboro Baby Photographer ~

Sage has blessed the blog before with his newborn session.  His parents are good friends of mine and let me tell you, they have an adorable little boy who is growing, growing, growing! We met Saturday for a family session and the weather was perfect. Sage was full of smiles and the airplane they brought, which has been in the family for years, was my favorite! Check out Sage and his adorable family!
