Our House in the Snow

The other night after all the snowfall (we had about 4 inches) Hope and I were walking out in front of our house and saw this. After we came back inside I headed out again with my camera. I was late for dinner that night but I just had to get this image before the snow melted! We also had a blast skiing down the hill behind the left side of the house. (click here to see two videos of that: video 1 and video 2) It was great but I am still ready for spring!!

The P.S. 2009 Christmas Card

Since everyone surely has received their Christmas card by now, I can reveal it to the rest of the world! We had a lot of fun on this one, believe it or not these take a lot of time and hard work to pull off. The SNL bumpers have always caught my eye so this year was a tribute to Saturday Night Live.

It's been pretty boring on the blog for a while but lets face it, I'm a pretty boring guy;) I've been too busy raking this massive amount of leaves to get much else accomplished, but the end is in sight!!

Here are a couple from a portrait shoot from a while back:

Chattanooga Bridal Show

The Chattanooga Bridal show on Sunday was awesome. Despite the horrendous rain there were quite a few brides that showed up. If I can say so, I do believe we had the best booth of the entire show! (that's only my opinion of course:) But if you missed it, here are some pics for you to see it with your own eyes.

To all the brides that were there and haven't signed up yet, I will be offering 40% OFF until this Sunday, Sept. 27th. Only a $200 down payment check in the mail and you will have the photography part of your wedding planning completely taken care of!

Thanks a bunch for all the compliments on the booth and I hope to see you all again soon,

Matt

Rachele and Corey at the Falls

Well this shoot just goes to show how new I am to Tennessee. Rachele and Corey invited me to Ozone Falls for their engagement shoot on Saturday. Only 45 minutes from the house and I didn't even know falls like this existed around here. A short hike to the bottom and I felt like we were in the Amazon. Watch your step though, every rock is constantly wet and covered in slippery moss. At the bottom of the falls was much cooler than the temp up top, but I had to be careful because there was a constant water spray covering all my equipment. Rachel and Corey were awesome sports though and we got some really cool images they can be proud of:

















Hope you are all having a great Monday,

A Sports Engagement

Yesterday, Laurel, Austin, and I had some fun at Campbell Station Park in Farragut. Somehow we missed all of the torrential downpours and managed to stay dry. Some of these shots would have been cool in the rain... But my photo equipment probably wouldn't enjoy it so much.

Laurel and Austin are very sporty and have both played soccer for 14 years. What better way to be photographed than doing something you love?

Enjoy,

-Matt
