Erin and Blake – *Inspired by The Bachelor* Nashville Engagement Session

April 7th, 2010 · 6 Comments

Every now and then we are blessed with clients who say “do whatever you want!”  When this happens I do a little happy dance and then I try to get to the bottom of just exactly what they love and what will stretch my creative muscle.  In talking with Erin, I found out that one of the things that she and Blake love doing together is watching ABC’s The Bachelor.  BINGO!  The idea for an engagement shoot inspired by The Bachelor was born :)  With the aid of the lovely Emily Kennedy acting as stylist, we put together three lovely scenes – the picnic date, the downtown date, and last but not least the final rose ceremony.  To see the whole story, be sure to check out their slide show (Mac or PC).  Below are a few of my favorites!

    So here’s what impresses me most about you and your photos. You start with the love story, the concept, the things that make the couple unique. You don’t just take pictures, as you yourself said, you tell that couple’s story. Fan-effing-tastic!

    P.S. I just love that bunting and those paper flowers! Did you make them yourself?

    A wonderful idea and even better execution of said idea ;) These photos are AWESOME! I love the look and feel of them and it looks like you had a great couple to work with.

    Beautiful work as usual.
