Memphis Wedding Photographer: Bryan and Jordan’s Children’s Museum Wedding!

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Bryan and Jordan’s Children’s Museum Wedding!

HAPPY Monday, y’all! Can y’all believe we are HALF way through October right now? It’s a little sad. Time just needs to slow down for a minute so we can stop and catch our breath before we hit the holidays….eeek. Am I the only one NOT ready for Christmas to get here?! That all being said, I have some great news! I have a gorgeous, brand spanking new wedding to show ya. And I just want to scream it from the rooftops!! Do y’all remember Jordan and Bryan??

 

I don’t know if you read my last post, but in a nutshell, I came clean about where I’ve been the last couple of years. Why I have been slowing down on weddings, and what’s been going on behind the scenes. It was this past wedding where I realized that I was so stinking happy through the entire day. I laughed. I laughed so hard I cried. And then I cried even more because I got to see true love unfold before my camera. I danced and sang. And I cheered. It was the day I realized, “Hey, this job IS for me. And I’m ready to get back in there.”

 

And I have Jordan and Bryan to thank for that!

 

This couple…so laid back, happy, goofy, and sweet to each other. They’re families were awesome! They’re wedding parties were the bomb! They made my job easy!

 

Anyways, this post is not about me! This post is about Jordan and Bryan’s GORGEOUS wedding day. The weather could not have been more perfect! The flowers, ahhhhh-ma-zing. The shoes! Swoon. The dress. My Lord, that dress. Girls would probably kill people for that dress, Jordan (I may or may not be in that category………).

 

So, let’s chat a bit about the location and logistics for this one. They decided on a traditional look over a first look. Traditional looks definitely have their pros and cons. One pro being that you can start wedding coverage later and end later, so more time at the reception. Another is obviously the true reaction when you walk down the aisle, something that is so pure and emotional. It’s almost a non-negotiable for a lot of couples, which I totally understand. For more of a discussion on the first look vs the traditional look, check out this link.

 

That all being said, if you decide on a traditional look, I DEFINITELY recommend hiring on a second shooter. It adds way more angles and options for your bride/groom portraits, and I think it’s WAY worth it.

 

Their ceremony was at St. John’s Episcopal Church, which was really pretty, but veryyyy dark with strict photo rules during the ceremony. (I recommend having the ceremony as early as you can get away with so you can have the most natural light possible during the ceremony.) Also for this type of ceremony, I recommend keeping note that the ceremony will be about 30-45 minutes depending on the sermon style you go with. Just make sure that ceremony time is factored into sunset for bride/groom portrait time with the traditional look since those photos are taken after the ceremony. I was really happy with our Golden Hour light that we managed to snag right after the ceremony! It was purrrrrrrrrfect. Had it been ten minutes later, we would have missed out on it completely.

 

The reception was at the Children’s Museum of Memphis at the Carousel. This is a relatively new venue in town, and I loved shooting there! The lighting, oh my goodness. It’s been a while since I’ve shot a wedding with amber up-lights. Oh. My. Gosh. Everyone, drop the blue/green/red/pink lights now. JUST DO AMBER. I am in LOVE WITH IT. So good choice, you two! (Purple is still good, too though….) The  actual carousel was a huge hit. Jordan and Bryan made their entrance on the carousel and that was awesome!! My only wish was that I had more time to play around with photographing kids and couples on it, but it was still fun!!

Lastly, for the exit, they decided to do a champagne toast, and that was a blast. It’s a great alternative to the typical sparkler exit, especially if you can get the crowd going!

Anyhooooo, enough chat, let’s get to the photos! I present to you: Jordan and Bryan’s wedding day through my lens!

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Thoughts by Maddie 10-2-18

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Thoughts by Maddie 10-2-18

 

Hey hey! Maddie here.

 

It’s been a loooooooooong time since I’ve posted really anything on my wedding blog other than wedding photos (and even those have been at a minimum). So, I thought it was time to discuss something a little closer to home because we’re all friends here, right??

 

I’ve been bad about weddings lately. I haven’t posted on facebook, emailed, tweeted, or instagrammed much at all. In fact, I have been doing the absolute bare minimum the last year and a half.

 

Yeah, we noticed Maddie…why??

 

Well, some old news…my dad, my business partner and my best friend in the entire world, died in 2015. Maybe you knew that, maybe you didn’t. But 2015, for my business was the hardest both technically and emotionally to have to go through losing him. But it was do-able because I still had my husband and family to help support me, and because weddings still made sense.

 

Until a year and a half later when my husband and I got divorced. And between the double Ds of death and divorce, it made shooting weddings too much for me. People told me to “just separate the work from my personal life.” “Just do your job.” “Get ‘er done.”

 

And well, I kinda suck at that.

 

When I take photos, especially wedding photos, I cannot take my emotion out of the session. I have to get personally invested in the client and their life, and I have to have some sort of emotional connection to them in order to create images that show their emotions to each other.

 

It’s a lot. And I’ve been bitter.

 

Which is what I have struggled with this last year and a half – feeling like I got the short end of the stick. So, how can I photograph people getting married when I feel this way? It just seemed fake.

 

Ahhh, you didn’t expect a wedding photographer to discuss divorce, did you? Seems ironic doesn’t it?

 

Not to say I haven’t shot any weddings the last two years. Of course I have. I’ve laughed, cried, screamed, danced, and loved my way through weddings. I’ve made some amazing new friends, and I’ve met the most wonderful couples and families that I couldn’t have even dreamed of having as clients.

 

It was this semi-break from weddings and my amazing couples who have allowed me to heal.

 

To fall back in love with weddings again.

 

Weddings are stressful. I’m dead the next day. There’s a ton of work before, during and after the wedding day, and there’s the extra stress of a wedding being a one-time event that you don’t want to mess up. BUT, it’s also an amazing day to experience the behind the scenes…like a fly on the wall during one of the most intimate, happy, and just all around emotional days of someone’s life. Through my camera, I can see the world clear as day. I can see true love exist. True happiness, emotion, and familial support…all captured through photos. Moments that I have the privilege to witness over and over again.

 

And finally, after taking some time to grieve the loss of my dad and this divorce, I can breathe again.

 

I can go to a wedding and cry, not because I miss my dad or I’m sad because my marriage didn’t work, but I can go to a wedding and truly cry tears of joy because this is something that I love. Because my couples are the best part of my job and my business. And because I’m genuinely happy for them and this life that they get to live.

 

So what now you ask?

 

I guess now, I just want you to love in your most honest and best possible way. Love the gorgeous day you’re putting together, and just remember what it’s for in the first place. Appreciate your parents, your family, and your future spouse. Because life is short and because extra love and gratitude never hurt anyone.

 

And when you hire your photographer (and any other wedding vendors, for that matter), give them some grace. It’s not an easy job. It’s exhausting, difficult, and emotional.

 

But I dare say…

 

It’s worth it.

 

Till next time.

 

xoxo

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Matt and Lauren’s 409 South Main Wedding

Y’all, I’ve got a BAD case of the Mondays. It’s like we had this awesome week of goofing around with 4th of July. And nowwwwww, we are back to work. Boo.

 

But to cheer EVERYONE up from the Monday Blues, I have super sweet new wedding photos to show you from 409 South Main.

 

Meet Matt and Lauren!

Bride groom portraits maddie moree 409 south main

OMG, aren’t they super cute??

 

I loved Matt’s white suit. And then during the ceremony and some portraits, he wore this awesome lei, which was great contrast. I loved how they incorporated fun Hawaiian touches since that is where Matt is from. They had cute little favors and the flowers were gorgeous!!

And then there was Lauren. Like, no words. Her dress was amazinggggggggg! The criss cross back was gorgeous. The train with the buttons going all the way down. Ahhhhhhhh! It was literally a dream dress…

Before I gush about the photos, I wanted to mention a few things. Matt and Lauren did do a traditional look. This worked out well because they had a nice little cocktail hour in the downstairs area of the venue, so we had some time upstairs alone that was very warehouse-y industrial. I loved the distressed brick and the gorgeous windows!

They did have a second shooter for their wedding, which comes in super handy when you do a traditional look. They help to get some different angles of portraits since we are usually on a pretty tight timeframe for those.

And lastly, instead of a sparkler exit, we did a ribbon exit. I think these are good alternatives to sparklers, so maybe something to keep in mind if you’ve chosen a venue that is not ok with sparklers. Also, they are a lot safer if people have been drinking… 🙂

Enough chit chat. Let’s get down to business.

Here was Matt and Lauren’s wedding day through my eyes!

Memphis Engagement Photography: Bryan and Jordan

Helllllllllllo WORLD!! What a crazy week it’s been! I’ve been working on some new projects, but I just had to get this Tyin’ the KNOT Thursday post out there because it’s been foreva since I posted!! And I’m not even going to lie. I’ve been sitting on this engagement session for a minute (Ok, ok. Longer than a minute). But, nevertheless…

I’m SO EXCITED to show you Bryan and Jordan’s awesome at home engagement session!

First off, meet Jordan and Bryan! These two, omg! Not only are they completely adorable (just look at them!!), they are super nice and ridiculously funny! I thought I was going to pee my pants a couple of times throughout this session because I was laughing so hard. TMI? Maybe, but what’d you expect from me anyways?? Lol!

sunset country engagement

They decided to do their engagement session at their house because they have this huge back yard with gorgeous trees and this cute little fence! And just look at the sun peeking through the trees. This was definitely one of those Golden Hour shoots, and I was LOVING the light. That paired with their cuteness made this a dream engagement session.

 

So, just a few short notes on “at home engagements:” You can opt for a 1 hour engagement over the 2 hour engagement probably because there’s not nearly as much walking and exploring…assuming you don’t have a huge ass property for us to explore. Hey, remember Derin and Bryan’s engagement?? That was their family farm, and we had enough spots to shoot to keep us occupied for hoursssssss.

 

I love at home engagements, though, because you really get a chance to shoot at a place that’s important and familiar to you (your home…). It’s super easy to incorporate animals for home engagements because you can just put them back in the house when you’re done, which is what we did with Jordan and Bryan’s pups! AND, you can probably even fit in an outfit change because you’re so close to a changing area. All great pros when trying to figure out locations.

 

That all being said, you really need to have a pretty yard or an interesting house (preferably with great light) so we actually have places to shoot. Just keep that in mind. Jordan and Bryan’s house and property was amazing, so that made it amazing!

 

These two are tyin’ the knot in September and I CANNOT wait for their day! But, enough talk. Let’s get to the photos! <3

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Brad and Natalie’s Heartwood Hall Wedding

Happy Fri-YAY!! It’s practically the weekend, and what better way to celebrate than showing you a super sweet Heartwood Hall Wedding?!?

 

OMG, you guys. I have been SO bad about posting my latest wedding and engagement photography, BUT better late than never!!!

 

Maybe you remember Brad and Natalie from their cute little sunflower engagement session we did last summer. It was hot as hell, but they were champs about it. You can check out their engagement photos here!

 

It may have been hot for their engagement session, but the weather was P-E-R-F-E-C-T for their wedding day. The entire week, it was showing like a 100% chance of rain (oh our weather men…). But they both kept their cool, and the day ended up being a perfect 75 degrees and sunny. That being said, even if it had rained, I think Natalie would have been A-OK with it. She was literally the chillest bride I’ve ever shot with, no bridezilla here!!

For their day, kids played a huge part in the wedding day, so you’ll see quite a few photos of them throughout the post. They were the sweetest kids, super cute in their wedding outfits, AND there were zero meltdowns. That has practically never happened before with that many young kids on a wedding day! Haha

Logistic-wise, Brad and Natalie did a first look! Both the ceremony and reception were at Heartwood Hall, and they did have a second shooter! You’ll also see two areas of couples photos, which is definitely one of the benefits of doing a first look. You’ll have a few more looks for your portraits, AND often times the the lighting is much better after the ceremony, especially during spring and summer weddings.

But enough of that talk. Let’s see the photossssssss.

Without further ado, I give you guys Brad and Natalie’s GORGEOUS wedding day at Heartwood Hall!

Memphis Wedding Photographer: Paul and Hannah’s Botanic Wedding

Hey peeps!! Happy Married Monday!!

 

Today, I have an adorable wedding to show you!! Y’all meet Paul and Hannah! Omg, so stinkin’ cute.

Memphis Botanic Wedding Maddie Moree 28

These two could honestly not have picked a better day and time of year for a wedding at the Botanic Gardens. Because alllllllllll of that rain we’ve had went straight to creating the most beautiful Cherry Blossoms, tulips and other random but amazingly gorgeous flowers throughout the entire garden! The weather was a tad overcast, but the sun really came out before the reception and made for some really awesome shots. We spent more time in the Rose Garden and were able to capture some of the most gorgeous shots. It’s all about the Golden Hour, ya know….

So, for their day, I just want to explain some of the logistics because we did it a bit differently here. To start, we skipped the getting ready portion and went straight into the first look. This is a great way to get a TON of bride and groom portraits, which is definitely reflected in the blog post here! This is all about prioritization. If couples portraits are the numero uno priority, then this kind of schedule is something to consider along with having a first look. Paul and Hannah had their ceremony at a church in Cordova, but we decided on doing the first look at the Botanic, which is an awesome idea considering all of the different backgrounds as well as the time of year made for some GORGEOUS scenes. Just check out the Cherry blossoms…

 

Since we skipped getting ready, we were able to extend their first look section by a good chunk. That paired with their smaller wedding party, it made for some fun couples portraits throughout the garden. After the ceremony, we headed back to the gardens for the reception. But before the reception actually started, I kidnapped the bride and groom for some more photos in a couple of gardens we didn’t get a chance to hit during the first look. This was OMG-gorgeous because the light was so soft and warm and happy and inviting, and I just wanted to sing it a love song and knit it a hat it was so amazing. Not to mention, Paul and Hannah were super cute because the hard part of getting married was already done!

 

I just want to reiterate that there is NO right or wrong answer when it comes to what you want photographed. It is all about what is important to YOU! I love working with couples like Paul and Hannah because they are SO laid back (bridechilla!!!!!!), super sweet to each other, and absolutely hilarious. There were points I was actually crying I was laughing so hard!! Haha

I’m so HONORED that I got to spend the day with them! But enough talk.

Let’s do this thing!! I present to you Paul and Hannah’s Memphis Botanic wedding as I saw it!

Now, I know it doesn't look like it... What with Now, I know it doesn't look like it...

What with 2 feet of snow on the ground (I'm lookin' at you, Denver!), but Spring is coming!!!🌹🌸🌼🌞🌳

Slowly but surely.

Longer days. Warmer weather.

Maybe even some greenery.🤤

I'm here for it.

What are you looking forward to with spring in the air??

Do you have a favorite nook that you like to hang Do you have a favorite nook that you like to hang out with your family?

This little family loveddddd reading together on the bed, which made for ridiculously cute photos!!

I love photographing your family in your home because it brings in an everyday aspect to your photos. It’s often times more causal, BUT I’ve had many clients tell me it means more because you’re in your own space...not just a pretty place.

I’m sure you can guess that I’m pro photos anytime anywhere. And each session: portraits, studio portraits, lifestyle photos, documentary photos, engagements, and weddings all have their time and place and benefits for display. But lifestyle photos at home are always a win!😉

Which do you prefer? Shots in the home or shots at a pretty place?

Heyyyyy, have I introduced you to MY family yet? Heyyyyy, have I introduced you to MY family yet?

That’s my hubs, Rich, and my puppers, Bears.

Over the weekend, I took our fall family photos. We definitely got some stares setting up my tripod at the park, but the photos were worthhhhhhh it.

What can I say?? I know what I want for our pics!😂😂

As a photographer, I get the insecurities and always wanting to be behind the camera vs the struggle of never being in any photos because you’re always the one taking them. But since I’ve been in front of my business more (especially on the branding side) and showing up in photos as a result, I have been loving our family photos and actually “existing in photos” again.

Yes, I give you permission to get photos of you an Yes, I give you permission to get photos of you and your honey...just because.

But in case you needed a couple of reasons:

1. Christmas is coming. Cough cough christmas cards.
2. Trees are pretty. But only for a little while longer.
3. Photo sessions make great gifts.
4. It’s fun to see how you “love” in photos.
5. Spend an hour feeling confident and good about yourself. (I love showering you in compliments...)
6. When was the last time you had photos together???
7. We aren’t even really leaving the house right now. Don’t we need a reason to put on makeup and look presentable?!

There is something about photographing little kids There is something about photographing little kids that I just love.❤️❤️

Their emotions are so genuine! They laugh so easy.

They’re not self-conscious yet. And they don’t worry about needing to lose ten pounds. They’re not too scared to play like us adults are.

Kids are completely unpredictable but oh so lovely.

How old are your kiddos??

I NEED. NEED. NEED. This baby. And I love this mo I NEED. NEED. NEED. This baby.

And I love this moment!! ❤️❤️😛

I love babies, BUT I’m not a “baby in a basket” kind of lady. No offense to anyone who shoots that way or loves those shots. It’s just not my speciality.

I’m all for dressing up for a photo, but it’s the love and emotion that keep me going.

I love grabbing sweet and honest moments of y’all interacting. I LOVE capturing their happy face, sleepy face, crying face, curious face, and tongues out face!

If that sounds like your jam, then you’re in the right place!

So we went on a little baby hike in the mountains So we went on a little baby hike in the mountains the other day.

It rained. A lot. And then I got car sick.🤢

But, I got a nice little family photo at a pretty place. The perks of being a photographer and working that self-timer mode...😏

What are your special skills that your family loooooooves?? (Though my family *tolerates* me constantly taking out the camera for photos. One day they’ll be grateful!)

I hear two’s are hard, but three’s are worse.😂😂

But it’s still probably better than teenagers. So there’s that.
