Caelan at Two Weeks - Jaclyn Paige Photography

Joshua and I first worked with Tabitha and Geoff when we shot their engagement session early last spring.  What a fun and happy couple!  Then, we did Tabitha's bridal session where we previewed her amazing dress and spent the afternoon capturing her gorgeous-ness (if that's not a word it should be!)  In June we spent Tabitha and Geoff's wedding day recording all the intimate moments and details from the morning preparations to the moonlit getaway.  We were a little sad when the day was over since we had come to consider them friends and not just clients.  Luckily we could relive the day while I created their album.  Now, Tabitha and Geoff are parents!  Tabitha called me for newborn pictures of their precious new son Caelan, and we packed up our studio gear for an in-home session.  What an adorable little guy.  Here are some favorites from the day. --Jaclyn

Alicia & Shawn - Engagement Session Downtown Knoxville - Jaclyn Paige Photography

I am really excited for Alicia and Shawn's wedding coming up this August.  They're so cute together and just genuinely sweet people.  For their engagement session, we went to the Old City for some shots, then walked to Market Square and Krutch Park for others- lots of fun!  Alicia is going to be a gorgeous bride while her adoring groom admires her all day.  You can tell he does even when it's not their wedding day!  Isn't that exactly how it should be?! --Jaclyn

Chelsea & Eric - Wedding at Union Cumberland Presbyterian Church - Jaclyn Paige Photography

Their wedding was held at Union Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and Pastor Leonard Turner conducted a beautiful ceremony.  After hearing his words about the couple and their families, Jaclyn and I wished we had been able to spend more time with them than just their engagement session and wedding day.  You can see in their eyes how they feel about each other.  In fact, the whole church and event hall were full of people who genuinely love and care about each other, and with the exception of one moment we caught on camera below, everyone spent the day putting each other first.--Joshua

Mary Frances & Jason - Wedding at Tennessee Valley UU Church - Jaclyn Paige Photography

A beautifully sophisticated bride with a down-to-earth sense of humor, a sharply dressed groom with a heart of gold, and personal touches all around from the bridesmaids' hair styles to the groom's Marvel cake... Mary Frances and Jason's wedding goes down in the books as a perfect reflection of a couple's personalities.  Joshua and I had a blast photographing their ceremony and reception at the Tennessee Valley UU Church. Their attendants literally danced into the ceremony (a la JK Wedding Dance) and back out again afterwards, only to dance their way into the reception hall, too!  Mary Frances and her sister sang "Sisters" from the movie White Christmas as part of her Maid of Honor toast, and then the party began!  Jason was surprised and thrilled to see his bride's Spiderman garter later on, and Mary Frances was clearly smitten as Jason sang "When I See You Smile" while dancing with her to during the last song of the evening.  Mary Frances and Jason are obviously wonderful friends and close teammates in life, and we were blessed to be a part of their special day. --Jaclyn 

Lori & Chris - Engagement Session - Jaclyn Paige Photography

Joshua and I had a great time with Lori and Chris at the Cove at Concord Park for their engagement session.  We are looking forward to their wedding in October- it's going to be a Vols fan's paradise.  As you can see, both Lori and Chris love UT Football.  They seem to like each other pretty well, too!  --Jaclyn

Kaelyn- Children's Portraits - Jaclyn Paige Photography

This session with Kaelyn and her family at World's Fair Park was so much fun.  Kaelyn was super good-natured, nevermind a natural in front of the camera.  But beyond that, as I was looking through these pictures for the first time after the shoot, and then again as I prepared them for printing, and once more as I was loading these images for this posting, I found myself smiling from ear to ear.  Remembering her personality and sweet little face just makes me happy!  I look forward to playing with and photographing her again! --Jaclyn

Renee & Stephen - Wedding at Dixie Lee Baptist Church - Jaclyn Paige Photography

Last weekend Joshua and I photographed Renee and Stephen's sweet nuptials at Dixie Lee Baptist Church.  I left the ceremony feeling like I had just renewed my vows to Joshua- they were so sincere and heartfelt it was impossible not to feel the love in the room!  These two are amazing people- wonderful to work with and simply great to be around.  Being a photographer means I am allowed the privilege of being part of a couple's most intimate and important day of their lives, which usually means I end up feeling like they are good friends of mine!  Renee and Stephen are certainly no exception.  Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Hill! --Jaclyn
