Read on for more details from the day, along with the talented group of vendors who brought this shoot to life! We'd also suggest taking a peek at Tara's original blog post for even more images!
"Josh & Jude were clients of mine from 2009, and had contacted me about an anniversary photo shoot. At the same time, Bridesmaid Dresses, I was working with Allison Sprouse from the Modern Hostess on sprucing up her portfolio. We had wanted to pull on board some of our favorite vendors from Knoxville to get their creative input. Because we had worked together at Josh & Jude's wedding, we thought they would be perfect for our project. And not a week after we had began organizing, Lara had announced her cover contest. Everything fell into place and the timing was perfect for their anniversary shoot on the Holston River in Knoxville, Tn. The Civil War era abandoned home was PERFECT for an indoor, Bridesmaid Dress, setting."
