@honeybook dropped me an email saying “Jan 15th is the new Jan 1st.” Can I get an amen?! // Has anyone else struggled to “kick start their year” and is just now shaking off the craziness of the holidays and finding your groove in your routine again? Please tell me it’s not just me. 🤦🏻‍♀️ // Typically, I shy away from New Years resolutions. Why? Because I perpetually suck at them. When I write them on paper I feel like it should actually be titled “things that I won’t actually accomplish.” 😂 // The past few years I’ve chosen a word instead and I have really loved it. This year, I’m still wrestling with the perfect word. In my mind, if I have one by the end of the month, I’m moving mountains over here lol. // 2019 will be a huge year of transitions for me: moving, hopefully snagging a job as a media specialist in a school 🤞🏻, while still running this photography business that I adore. I’m learning to give grace, accept grace, and how to trust Jesus instead of accepting anxiety. // So friends, drop me a comment- have you chosen your word for 2019? I’d love to hear it and encourage you on your journey! #savannahevephotography #newyearsresolution #2019goals #2019 #2019word
A little over a week ago, @haydenholcomb and I returned from a long weekend in Chattanooga. @alexianicolephotography & her fiancé joined us and it was SO MUCH FUN!! I had no idea there was so much to do in Chattanooga people!! // If anyone is looking for an awesome weekend adventure and a great Airbnb to go with it- shoot me a message!! I’ll tell you all about our favs 😊. // One of my favorite parts was wandering around and checking out all the “hole in the walls.” Also photographing @kaitlynbrown_3’s perfect wedding day was also a HUGE fav 😍. // March 21st we are headed back to see @ben_rector and I couldn’t be more excited!! #chattanooga #chattanoogaphotographer #lookoutmountain #chattanoogachoochoo
I can’t think of a better way to close out 2018. // We took a long weekend trip to Chattanooga (SUCH a cool place) to capture @kaitlynbrown_3 & AJ’s wedding and man oh man, it was an absolutely perfect day. // You know all the rain we’ve been getting lately? Well it hit pause for ONE day just in time for their wedding day 🙌🏻. // Full recap is on the blog, link in profile! ☝🏻
For those of you who don’t know, my sister @hillaryleahphotography and I are both photographers. Every year, we line the fam up in the front yard with my camera on a tripod for all of five mins. But this year, we committed. I mean really committed. We hired @aus10mar10 because we knew he could handle our crazy fam. But here’s the truth: we almost cancelled. We took these photos a week after our Granny passed away and *showering* and getting there seemed like a conquering a mountain. But we did it anyway and I’m so thankful. I adore these photos. I’m telling you this to say, yeah- getting your husband & kids dressed and to a photo shoot can be hard work, but people, the reward is so much greater 💕. // Alsoooo keep swiping to see the color pallet I sent to the fam months in advance 😂 #typeA #ennegram8
Part ✌🏻of @taylorsheffield & Tyler’s engagement session was so. much. fun. Pretty sure I said the exact same thing about part ☝🏻 though 🤷🏻‍♀️. // Side note: I am SO excited for the 2019 wedding season. I adore every single one of my couples next year and I am so pumped to celebrate them. I love when “clients” turn into friendships 😍. // And tangent #2, Taylor makes the best cupcakes ever. EVER. Not even kidding. Last week she made me a batch of the cutest little minis for @alexianicolephotography’s bridal shower and they were a huge hit!! Check out @flourgirlcupcakes anddddd she makes pupcakes people. PUPCAKES. I digress. Happy Thursday friends 💕. #savannahevephotography
Yesterday I felt that absolute 💩 with what my doc called the “Canton crud” 😂. Two 💉 in my 🍑 later and this morning I woke up ready to take on the rest of 2018. // Coming up I have holiday gatherings and a little getaway to Chattanooga where I get to photography @kaitlynbrandon3’s wedding 😍. It’s my last wedding for the year and it’s going to be magical. Talk about a great way to wrap up the year! // PS This ring shot from my cousins’ wedding is my favvv 😍. Those detail shots though. // Anyone have fun New Year’s Eve plans?!
Here’s a Monday morning pick me up featuring my favorites, Charlie & Cash 😍. One of my top 10 fav things about my job: all the sweet fur babies I get to meet and love on. Gimme allllll the 🐶 kisses and tail wags. #savannahevephotography
Whew. What a past few days. This past Saturday, my Granny Rose went home to Jesus. She always taught me to live fearlessly and by the beat of my own drum. And she and my mom are big influences in why I adore taking photographs. My mom asked me to collect photos I had taken of her for a slide show and sifting through photos of her was the best gift. Between my sister and I, I think we were able to capture Granny’s “highlight reel” the past 7-10 years. Perks of always having a camera in your car. But then this made me think about all the grandparents I get to meet on a wedding day. Grandmothers who want to fluff the veil or grandfathers who want to shake the grooms hand. And it hit me. I get to give my couples the same gift I’ll cherish more than any heirloom I could ever receive. I get to give them timeless photos with their sweet loved ones on one of the biggest days of their life. This made my stop in my tracks, get choked up, and give me yet another reason to love my job. Friends, I challenge you to call your loved one today. Go bring them a cup of coffee, sit with them, and steal a hug or two on your way out. And while you’re there- snap a selfie 😉. Granny selfies were always my favorite. And to all my 2019 couples: please forgive me if I spend just a minute or two more snapping a few photos of you and your loved ones. I promise you’ll love them. #savannahevephotography
