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

Meghan and Darryl got engaged in NYC, at the Statue of Liberty, on Meghan’s birthday! Super fabulous, right!? Right! Not many people have such a fun engagement story! I was pumped when Meghan e-mailed me shortly after to talk about engagement photos. You may remember them from their couple session four years ago. It’s so wonderful when I get to photograph repeat clients! I loved looking back at that session to see how my style has evolved, and how I’ve grown as a photographer. I am even more excited that I was able to give them fresh, new, photos to hang on their walls! We took these images around my parent’s house in November, and even though it was ‘cold’ it wasn’t as cold as it could’ve been at that time of year. I am just so thankful and lucky to have photographed these two again. We had a blast exploring a wooded area and finding some hidden spots for this session. Enjoy my favorites below! Congratulations again Meghan & Darryl!

I am not a decorator. Far from it, actually! However, I think Graham’s room turned out looking pretty good! He hasn’t had a ‘room’ of his own, ever. His crib has always been in our room. We moved when he was three weeks old, and since we were moving we never really ‘put’ his nursery at that house together. During the four months we’ve been here, his room has basically been a “catch-all” room. You know, the room you throw everything into and shut the door before guests come over? Oh, please tell me I’m not the only one who has a room like that! ;) Now that “catch-all” room has changed from Graham’s room to the guest room. Ha! It will get done eventually, right? Right.

So, back to Graham’s room. I wanted an airplane theme for a boy YEARS before he was ever thought about. I even found his crib sheets years before, too, and I was so happy Restoration Hardware still carried them when we found out Graham was a boy. :) I absolutely love his room! I love the airplane mobile, the elephant my Mamaw and Papaw bought for him before Papaw passed away, the gray glider from Toys R Us, and Graham’s tiny white rocking chair my parent’s gave him for Christmas. Enjoy a look into Graham’s room!

Before – well, actually AFTER we cleaned out all the clutter and boxes. ;)

It is thickly padded which is something my little head bopper needs. He was constantly banging his head on the sides of the crib before we got this one. nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0008 nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0007 nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0006 nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0004

I bought these model airplane blueprints from a shop in Nashville called OldMadeGood. I had them mounted on foam board. I just love they turned out!

I had them printed as metal standout prints and I adore them! :)

We also put down this very brightly colored ABC mat for Graham to play on. It definitely doesn’t go with anything in the room but he loves it!  nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0015 nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0016My little photo ham on his five month birthday this week:  nashville-tn-franklin-tennessee-photographer-parthenon-wedding-photography-southern-spring-hill-tennessee-wedding-photographer-graham-baby-nursery-airplane-room_0017I hope you enjoyed seeing his room! We have definitely spent a LOT of time in there the last week and a half trying to get him adjusted to sleeping in it. The no sleep thing is just a phase, right? I won’t have to rock him to sleep when he’s 14, right?! Ahh, he makes all the sleep-haze-functioning worth it though. ;)

I don’t know if I’ve said this on the blog or not, but I’ve moved back north of Nashville. This means more photo opportunities with repeat clients! I am so pumped for that fact. ;) And the fact that I’m closer to family with the new baby. Hello free babysitters! ;)

Jessica and I went to school together and were really good friends in elementary school. We reminisced over McDonald’s birthday parties, high school, and discussed parenthood all the while taking images of her two sweet and GORGEOUS children, Taylor & Tyler. Of course, I just had to get a few images of Jessica with the kids, and I love how they turned out! Plus, we took these in October and the colors of the trees were so vibrant! We really lucked out there. ;) Okay! Enjoy my favorites below! :)
