Most of my memories of Alan go way back to when I was in high school & we went to Florida Camp with First Baptist Church. He was a few years younger but we shared the same enthusiasm for the annual 3-on-3 basketball tournament & volleyball. Fun memories!! And, he turned out to be an incredible basketball player. A few years later I saw Alan & he looked as if he were 7 feet tall.
Six years ago in July, Alan married Jennifer. Jennifer is from Sevierville, TN… home of the gorgeous Smoky Mountains & of course, Dolly Parton. After finishing college, they moved to Memphis for Alan to attend The University of TN’s College of Dentistry. After recalling history the other night we both realized that we lived in Memphis at the same time.
Alan now practices dentistry in Athens, TN & Jennifer balances teaching 6th grade while working on her Masters. As if they weren’t busy enough, they have a photography hobby turned biz & are doing a great job. Check out their blog here. Our session proved that they are equally as skilled in front of the camera as they are behind it. Great job guys!!! Thanks so much… we’re definitely hanging out again soon!
It was so neat being in their home. They purchased their house from my sister & her husband when they moved; it brought back some great memories. I’m pretty sure I painted several of the walls!
I love having dogs involved in shoots. Here are their two little ones, Beeson & Cooper. As soon as I walked into the house I was met with affection from these guys. Below is Beeson.
And here’s Cooper… Mr. Cooper is full blast!
We took a drive down the road to one of my favorite landscapes around. The weather was perfect, the field grass was high, & a beautiful couple to photograph… ahhh!
We found a nice shaded area around the corner.
Quick shoe change… what a guy… he’s a doctor, a photographer, a pilot… geez!
His & hers.
I named this their National Geographic promo shot.
Love it!!!
