Ruby Nashville Wedding - Hayley and Mike
Hayley and Mike’s rainy day wedding photographed at Ruby in Nashville, TN with a special appearance by the flower bro’s.
An adorable couple, a pair of flower bros with fanny packs, and a room full of lifelong friends made Hayley and Mike’s wedding at Ruby in Nashville, TN a memorable day to photograph. These two and their wedding party were so much fun to work with and despite the fact that it rained most of the day, we had an incredible time. Hayley looked gorgeous in her gown and the florals were stunning. One of the highlights of the night for me was a toast from Hayley’s dad where he read lyrics from a considerable amount of country songs about love and relationships. It is up there on my list of dad toasts. Everyone was so incredibly happy for these two and no one wanted the party to end. Please enjoy photos from Hayley and Mike’s Ruby Nashville Wedding.

Spring Centennial Park Engagement Photography - Shalagh and Justin
Shalagh and Justin’s spring Centennial Park engagement photography session.
Shalagh and Justin live in Nashville but were planning a destination wedding in another state. They decided that they wanted to do their engagement session where their home is and asked me to photograph it. We had so much taking photos around Centennial Park and I’m sure their winter wedding was absolutely stunning!
Downtown Spring Engagement Session - Mary and Kevin
Mary and Kevin’s engagement session photographed at Centennial Park and in their condo in downtown Nashville.
Mary and Kevin and I had too much fun during their engagement session. They wanted to combine nature and downtown Nashville so we decided to photograph some of their session at Centennial Park and the rest downtown near their condo. Other than the photo of Mary giving Kevin a piggyback ride, I think my favorite images that day were the ones that we took inside their condo. I love when we get to incorporate elements from a couple’s day-to-day life. Please enjoy their downtown spring engagement session!
Centennial Park Family Session - Robin & Shujah
A Nashville Family Session with a baby and a dog photographed in Centennial Park by Erin Lee Allender.
Three years ago, I photographed Robin and Shujah's wedding at Cedarwood. Thanks to how happy they are and their flower dog, Taj, I took some of my favorite photographs that year. So when Shujah contacted me about purchasing a surprise session for Robin for Mother's Day, I was overjoyed to be working with them. If you know me at all you know that two of my favorite things are dogs and babies and when they brought me this adorable chubby cheeked little boy to photograph, I fell in love. To this little one, all us where chopped liver when his big brother Taj was nearby. He thought Taj was the most hilarious thing ever. I hope you enjoy our Centennial Park Family Session in Nashville!
Summer Storm Engagement Session - Hollie & Dusten
An engagement session photographed between two summer storms at Centennial Park and the walking bridge in Nashville, Tennessee by Erin Lee Allender.
“We’re getting married again!” were the signs that Dustin and Hollie held in their engagement photographs. Dusten and Hollie were married at the courthouse a year before their formal wedding to help secure Dusten’s Green Card. They hoped he wouldn’t have to go back to Canada while Hollie, a U.S. Citizen, was finishing up school here. The day of their engagement session we were able to squeeze in their photos between a couple summer storms. These guys are super fun and the wet weather didn't phase them at all. Stay tuned for the blog of their wedding tomorrow!
