There are moments in life that feel like coming full circle, and Emma’s wedding was one of those moments for me. Emma holds such a special place in my heart, as she was once part of my senior Spokesmodel team. That year of working closely with her and the other girls left me with cherished memories and a lasting connection to each of them. So, when Emma reached out to me about capturing her wedding, I was overjoyed. I couldn’t wait to document this beautiful new chapter in her life and meet the love of her life, Bryce.
From our engagement session in downtown Nashville, I knew Emma and Bryce’s love was extraordinary. The way they looked at each other, shared laughs, and radiated joy was something special, and it was clear this was a love meant to last.
It was the Perfect November Day when I arrived at Chenault Vineyards on their wedding day; we couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather. The sun was shining, the crisp November air was just right, and excitement filled the vineyard. Laughter echoed from the bridal suite as Emma and her bridesmaids shared stories, sipped champagne, and prepared for the big day. Meanwhile, the groomsmen were having their own fun at the welcome center, laughing, tossing Bryce into the air for photos, and sharing cigars.
The first looks of the day were nothing short of emotional. Emma shared a touching moment with her dad, his pride and love written all over his face. Then came the first look between Emma and Bryce—what a tear-jerker! Bryce’s raw emotion as he saw his stunning bride was enough to make me cry behind my camera. The love between them was undeniable as they embraced and ventured around the stunning property for their couple’s portraits.
The ceremony took place at a breathtaking point on the vineyard with 360° views. Guests were chauffeured by golf carts to their seats, and as Emma walked down the aisle with her dad, tears flowed freely—not just from Bryce, but from many in the crowd. The ceremony was heartfelt and filled with a beautiful message about love and commitment.
After the ceremony, the celebrations kicked into high gear. The bridal party made unforgettable entrances, each couple bringing their own creative twist—one even swapped outfits for laughs! When Emma and Bryce entered, the reception hall erupted in cheers, and their first dance was a magical moment. With cloud-like smoke covering the dance floor and cold sparklers lighting the background, it felt like a scene from a fairytale. Heartfelt speeches followed, filled with laughter and sweet memories. Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner before hitting the dance floor for a night of fun.
As a former member of the UK dance team, Emma brought her crowd leading spirit to the reception. She and her bridesmaids performed a specialty dance that left Bryce in awe. After the dance the groomsmen brought out pom-poms, and the entire dance team joined in for a spirited performance, complete with the UK fight song. Then, the ultimate surprise: the UK Wildcat mascot made an appearance, joining the group on the dance floor to the delight of all the guests.
The energy was electric, the laughter endless, and the memories unforgettable. Between the photo booth, non-stop dancing, and the Wildcat mascot keeping the party alive, the night was a celebration of love, joy, and togetherness.
Emma and Bryce, I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to capture your special day. It was such an honor to witness your love story unfold in such a beautiful way. I hope these moments bring you as much joy as they brought me and you enjoy a few of my favorite images from your day.
Here’s to a lifetime of love and laughter!
