Commercial Construction Photography - Resource Management Company

July 31, 2008 | Filed Under commercial | Leave a Comment

I spent a few hours photographing excavation jobs in progress for Resource Management Company (RMC) this week. RMC is in the process of developing their web presence and needed plenty of action and detail shots to give to their designers a glimpse into their company. These are a few of my favorites…

Bynum Photography isn’t just available for families or weddings, but think of us when you need photos for your business or organization too!

Celebrating Adoption - Two Year Old

July 24, 2008 | Filed Under celebrating adoption, family, kids | Leave a Comment

When you’re two, you don’t care if it is hot outside. You just want to go to the playground.

This sweet little guy was joined by his Mom and Grandparents. You’d never know that Grandpa is over 80 years old by the way he ran around and climbed up and down with his grandson.

We went walking on the boardwalk for a few quiet moments with Mommy.

Thanks for letting me celebrate your adoption with you! We love you guys!

Kelley & Johnnie, Summer Wedding at Scarritt Bennett, Nashville TN

July 14, 2008 | Filed Under wedding | Leave a Comment

Forgive the extra few days that it took me to blog this wedding! I am spending the week in West Tennessee with Brad’s family, helping his Mom around the house as she recovers from knee replacement surgery. Norah’s being such a good girl while I am busy cooking and cleaning. I am sure she is in shock - she’s probably not seen me do too much of either at home on a regular basis!

Kelley & Johnnie were married this Saturday at the beautiful Wightman Chapel at Scarritt Bennett in Nashville. The bright yellow/orange/hot pink color palette that Kelley & Johnnie selected was the perfect compliment to the warm and sunny July afternoon when they were married. Below are some of my favorite shots from the day…

And the beautiful results…

Johnnie with his sisters and dad/stepmom

Kelley & Johnnie did one of those fantastic choreographed first dances that I KNOW will end up on youTube as soon as Sarah, the wonderful videographer is finished editing!

One more of the precious flower girls - they were best friends before they ever walked down the aisle together!

All shots above were photographed at Scarritt Bennett.

Then we ventured offsite to capture a few additional images of Kelley & Johnnie together!
This yellow recording studio was a perfect match for them!

And because some certain groomsmen put silly string all over Johnnie’s clean car and it was getting to him, we made a last minute trip to the car wash for probably my favorite moments of the day.

Many thanks to Stephanie Edens for her work as my second shooter for the day. Kelley & Johnnie - congratulations!

West Africa Photos by Brad Bynum

July 11, 2008 | Filed Under personal | 1 Comment

Well, my husband just got back from a trip to West Africa, and he took some amazing photos of the villages and the people that he met while there. These are some of my favorites:

This is my very favorite photo that he took in West Africa. I want to print it big for our walls.

(Obviously if he is in the photo, one of his team mates took it!)

On their way in they had a layover in Paris, so they went out sightseeing. These are my two favorite photos he took in Paris.

I love you Brad Bynum. You’re a rockstar.

Family Portraits in Antioch, Graves Family

The last time I photographed little Owen was about two years ago when he was only 6 months old.

Fast forward to today - what a handsome guy!

Owen and his parents and grandparents came out to Turner Farms today for a lifestyle family photo session in the great outdoors. It was ~~pretty miserable~~ really hot, so I thank y’all for hanging in there with me. Did I mention it was hot?

Owen is two and a half…enough said. We had our work cut out for us but I think we accomplished the goal!

Racing with dad, one of Owen’s favorite things to do.

Grandparents

Mom & Dad

Sweet little family

Owen and I had a long discussion about the movie Cars in this photo

This child is so beautiful. Truly truly beautiful.

I would like to point out the clothing selections that this group (Emily) chose for today’s session. They are bright, cheery, summery and well coordinated but not identical. Great job! Thanks again for coming to see me today!
