We're Moving to Tennessee!

Well it's been in the talks for a long time now but it is finally here. After many years of contemplating a move out of state, Hope and I have finally decided Kingston, TN is to be our new home. Of course the news comes with great regret but also plentiful elation. We will certainly miss seeing our family and friends as often as we do now, but we will certainly be coming back to visit again and again.

Kingston, TN is just on the outskirts of Knoxville in the easternmost area of the state. With plenty of mountains nearby, as well as state parks, national parks, rivers, lakes, and recreation areas, Knoxville is a dream come true! Our new home sits in a beautiful area on a couple of acres within walking distance to the Tennessee river and will serve as a starting point to build the business of my dreams. Lush gardens, walkways, and water features are on the brain for Pavel Studio's but all of that is to come and of course I will share our progress here on the blog.

We won't be moving just yet, but will head out probably in early August to get the kids settled and Austin off to his new school. His favorite part about the move is that he gets to ride the school bus!... well that and having stairs for the first time:) I will post a few pics below. Anyone who wants to come visit please feel free to come stay with us anytime, besides, we need a few familiar faces to make us feel even more at home!

We will miss all of you sooo much, but at the same time we are giving you a great reason to take a vacation to Knoxville!

Have a great week.

The interior.

And the back deck.

This of course is where I will spend a lot of my free time, the shop.

And a view from the woods.

Matt,
Your house looks beautiful, the scenery, land, sitting on the deck looking at the wildlife, sounds great. I can't wait to get out of town myself. I'm proud of you for taking the leap and finding such a beautiful and peaceful place. I hope ya'll will be very happy in your new home.

I was given your site by my son. He is in the 4 wheel forum you joined and at that time you did not say you were moving to TN, so I called him back to ask why you were in their forum. Looked again today and see you are moving to Kingston. Are you still planning on being a wedding photographer?

Yes Leedra. I will still be a wedding photographer, just in a different locale. I always love to travel and would love to photograph a destination wedding even if it was back in my home state of TX:)
