Tammy & Kenny got married on a snowy February 13th this year. They had some technical difficulties due to the weather (their rehearsal/dinner was cancelled because no one could get up the mountain, her parents were held up by the weather and arrived just before the wedding), but they were so relaxed and didn’t let anything deter their amazing wedding.
They got married at Sherwood Forest Conference Center in Pigeon Forge which is fabulous. I love shooting here, especially since I found the back way in ( >:P””” Pigeon Forge Traffic) and discovered the key to perfect color balance in the somewhat orangey, shiny log cabin. It’s a great location. I love the views from the cabins and the fact that there are plenty of fun locations nearby for the Forest of the Smokeys look. You can see some of that from a wedding I shot there in 2009.
The fireplace makes a wonderful backdrop!
It’s a bit of the Brady Bunch with 6 kids coming together, 3 boys & 3 girls. Everyone seemed to get along pretty well (especially considering how annoying teenagers generally find their younger siblings). In fact, I’m still not sure who belongs to who, they all blended together so seamlessly. I think the 6 kid situation may be part of where Tammy & Kenny get their amazing patience and relaxed natures. You have to learn to just let things ride with that many children around.
This is not one of their 6 children. This is Tammy’ niece, also known as the Flower Girl.
It was surprisingly NOT freezing and we were able to grab a few shots with all that snow.
But really, Tammy & Kenny were there to party with their friends. And party they did!
Thanks for including us in your wedding plans! We had a blast and definitely enjoyed meeting your fabulous family and friends.
