Bethany Ann Photography – Nashville, Tennessee Wedding & Portrait Photographer » Southern Weddings & Portraits

I am thankful for:

God for giving me so many amazing blessings in life already
my mom and dad for always showing me love and support
my sister, brother-in-law and nephew for always making me laugh and being my “test” models
my amazing boyfriend for loving me, supporting my dreams, making me a better person, and taking me to dinner every now and then :)
my family
my best friend for late night chats and always being there when I need to laugh or cry or hug or if I just need a model (hehe)
my college roommates (Candice, Ashley, CheeTara, Lisa, Rothschilda, Beth Ann & Tiffany) for teaching me to see life from different perspectives, to laugh instead of study (haha!), and go to the movies in my PJs
everyone who has ever believed in me
a roof over my head and clothes on my back
food on the table
my health
all the wonderful people who have already been, or will be, in front of my lens
my camera & lenses
the friends I’ve made in college so far
the fact that I only have two more semesters left (Yah!)
realizing photography is what I wanted to do with my life after switching majors three times and switching schools once (Everything happens for a reason. I know it to be true now!)
my best friends from high school who I don’t see often enough but I still love dearly
the military
sweet potatoes (my fav!)
University of Kentucky Basketball
and Kathy Van Zeeland purses!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Bethany Ann

I almost didn’t get to shoot this wedding. Thankfully, we were able to make it work and meet up on Tashia & Herb’s wedding day, October 23rd. Then, I almost didn’t make it to their wedding! If you remember from the teaser post, I got lost. Oh, I was in a panic! That day I didn’t have a GPS with me, so I relied on Tashia & Herb’s awesome directions and made it there with a few minutes to spare. They got married in the “Chapel of Love” in Hopkinsville, KY, and then we went to a local park for more pictures. Tashia’s mom, Vivien, and Herb’s mom, Carol, along with Tashia’s son, Tristan came along to show their support. I love how their day was simple and sweet, but surrounded in love.

Tashia & Herb, I am so glad I was able to make it to your wedding. You two have such big hearts and I know your marriage will be filled with lots of happy days. And Herb, thank you for serving our country!

The day Jessi e-mailed me, before I read her e-mail, I was in a terrible mood. Have you ever had one of those days where you feel like nothing is going your way? Yeah, it was one of those days. So, I decided to check my e-mail for the tenth time that day and I was surprised to find an e-mail. This e-mail sounded promising, because my former English teacher Kadi, suggested me to her. My day was instantly brighter! I e-mailed her right away and we spoke on the phone the next day.

I am so appreciative of Jessi & Paul for trusting me and believing in me. I had a wonderful time getting to know them and their wedding was so them. They did not play the normal Wedding March; they both walked down the aisle to Third Day’s Born Again. Listen to it here. I loved how Jessi beamed the whole day when she talked about Paul and their future together. Paul had the biggest grin on his face the whole day. And I can’t forget to mention Jessi’s beautiful knee-length handmade dress. Stunning!

Their wedding ceremony took place at A Piece of Forever Banquet Hall in Downtown Clarksville. The reception followed at The Front Page Deli. On the phone she said that she wanted photographs that captured how in love she and Paul were so they could one day show their future children. I hope I captured it for you, Jessi & Paul. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to witness it!
