This weekend my Father-in-Law got married. It was a wonderful, laid back event hosted at their house amidst the hills and trees of Tennessee.
So beautiful!
And the weather!!
Seriously could not have picked a better day. It was 78 degrees with no clouds.
Perfect.
I really loved how relaxed everything was. The invitation said 1 o’clock, but when 1 rolled around, the groom still needed to get dressed!
Rather than hire a photographer, the couple asked a handful of family & friends to come armed with their cameras and snap away (as if you could have stopped me!!). It also gave me a good excuse to try out my new camera lens! I took my role very seriously and started a day early at the rehearsal dinner.
I’ll try and stick to photos of people you know.
Little decided she was Papa’s girl for the evening.

Once family started arriving from both sides, it was decided name tags were in order.

You’ve seen this little one before, but she was quite a bit smaller back then!
I didn’t photoshop her eyes. Promise!! 
I think the sun was at that magical point in the sky though, so I’m sure that helped.
Regardless,
WOWZER!!!!!
Those are some pretty blue eyes!!!
(I’m allowed to say that, right?)
The groom, or Papa Rob as he’s known around our house.

Days like that make me wish we lived out in the country instead practically down town! Well, living practically down town with kids makes me wish I lived pretty much anywhere else, but that’s another story!!
Hope you’re enjoying sunshine wherever you find yourself today!!!
