Knock-out in Knoxville

Ah, what to say about Jordan and Charlotte? In this post you will only see the beauty on the outside (and there is plenty of that) but let me just tell you that it flows from beauty within. This is truly a God-written love story. Anybody who knows them will agree that God is very much glorified in this beautiful relationship... and it began with two people separately running hard after God.

We were in Knoxville together for a conference and went out on the town one sunny afternoon. These portraits were so easy to do. Not only is the couple good-looking and stylish, they are very much in love. :) Jordan treats Charlotte like such a lady and she returns his love with complete devotion.

A sidewalk cafe...
This is outside of my "typical lighting techniques" box, but I love pretty much everything about this picture.
These are the kind of pictures that make me look forward to the next time I get to photograph two people in love.
We stopped at this little coffee and chocolate cafe and they sat down for a cup of tea, where we took this next little series.
The first thing they did as they sat down was pray together.
Hilarious! Love this.
Seriously. Could they be any cuter?
The sign behind them says "Do not put anything in front of these doors. Thanks." :) These sort of places usually make the best backdrops.

This makes me smile everytime I see it.
And this one. Practicing their dance moves...
This was at the end of the shoot. Charlotte was almost completely frozen. But then we saw this red door. I know they were groaning inside when I asked for one more shot. But I'm so glad we did. This is my favorite shot.I am looking forward to your wedding so much!
