Opening WordPress for the first time in a month to post pictures is like a breath of fresh-air. I assumed that as it got colder here in East Tennessee that far less people would be wanting photo sessions and I braced myself. I didn’t, however, realize how long winter really is! Every day seems to just creep creep by. I find myself making lists and calenders and schedules for the upcoming craziness that will be this wedding-packed summer. I will surely be grateful for all the organization when it comes… but it’s no fun at all! Taking pictures, editing and designing things with them are my favorite things to do in the world. All the other stuff is just … bleh..

In order to keep from twiddling my thumbs for one more day I set up a weekend full of free photo-shoots. I’ve had so many new ideas to try out and wanted a new playground to try them out in… so to Johnson City.. my old home.. we went! David and I are always inspired by that city. A piece of my heart will always be there from spending 5 years of my life as a college kid in the Johnson City sun, but David loves the slower pace, the fact that you can arrive anywhere in 5 minutes and the awesome, awesome people that are there. I found some incredible friends while in college and they married some incredible people. Whenever we spend time with them we feel so full and honestly.. ready to move! ;)

One of those awesome awesome couples.. are the Nutters! I seriously think David Nutter and my David could talk and laugh for hours and forget where they are. And Sarah is always encouraging me in my quest of being a kitchen dweller. Most of the meals we eat here in the Hensley house that require a measuring cup.. have come from the Nutter kitchen. That girl knows what she’s doing!

We love them so.. and wanted to bless them with images of their sweet sweet family. Never have I realized the rich photography locations of that place! They are everywhere!! Ahh.. Johnson City.. how I love thee! Until next time…

I couldn’t pick a favorite from these two.. so I’ll let you decide! ;)

my favorite shot all day! ;)

this is David Nutter’s fav… Christian was spitting down the drain… all boy!

I love the composition of this shot… not necessarily the faces .. lol

I’ll leave you with the sweetest face…
