Is throw back Thursday still a thing? This popped up as a memory from May 14, 2009!!! It was install day at The Barn at Blackberry Farm for our Chef Series. Expertly framed and hung by Ramona and Laura at Bennett Galleries. They’ve always elevated what I do. The chef series holds such a special place in my heart! It was such a special gift to capture so many of the visiting chefs and personalities at Blackberry Farm. And I love the memory wall of all the prints, letters, and notes that hang in the Barn to this day inspiring a new generation of cooks and guests alike.

As we embark on The Scout Guide Volume 9, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on my page from Volume 8, which highlights some of the work I’ve been fortunate to do in this wonderful community. TSG Editor Frances King has done an exceptional job curating each edition, bringing together and celebrating the businesses and entrepreneurs that make Knoxville so unique.

I had the opportunity to shoot stills for an episode of Motel Rescue for the Magnolia Network back in March. The season launched over the summer so I can finally share some of the images. When I was in college in Austin a long long long time ago, I used to pick up jobs as a Production Assistant so while I’ve been on sets before, a lot has changed since the *ahem* 90’s — mostly the introduction of reality tv and the fixer upper! It was incredible to be on set on reveal day to capture what the crew and star were able to accomplish in a short amount of time. Townsend is a treasure trove of a bygone era. It was great to see this family owned motel get some love and design direction!

“Remember us, O God; from age to age be our comforter. You have given us the wonder of time, blessings in days and nights, seasons and years. Bless your children at the turning of the year and fill the months ahead with the bright hope that is ours in the coming of Christ. You are our God, living and reigning, forever and ever. Amen.” — Catholic Household Blessings and prayers prayer for the new year My heart is full of gratitude for great friends and a lovely start to 2024. May we all make time in the year ahead to come together around the table.

Happy Thanksgiving! It’s hard to find a photograph that captures the essence of Thanksgiving, but for me, Thanksgiving is generally spent in the kitchen cooking, washing dishes, and making memories with family and friends. This year, my girls were super involved in helping me prepare our meal. We spent two days cooking and watching cheesy Christmas movies. It was great. I hope you had a wonderful holiday with friends and family. I’m grateful for each and every person that invites me to create images for their family or business, I’m grateful for the opportunity to tell your stories through photographs.

Putting together a looksheet for a client and came across this beauty. Now all I can think about are oysters. These were from our go to for delivery Island Creek. What’s your favorite local spot for oysters? Mine is J.C. Holdway and I’m long overdue for a visit there.

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to document a conversation between Brent Bookwalter and Robbie Ventura at Blackberry Farm, they are a pretty big deal in the cycling world, incredibly accomplished athletes. I’m not a cyclist, unless you count time on my peloton or a beach bike. I do workout and strength train with the help of a coach. The conversation reminded me how critical it is to have a coach not only to help you with your physical goals, but the mental goals you have. The mind body connection is intense! The conversation also touched on how training changes and evolves throughout your life, for these guys their career goals shift and evolve and that’s ok! Great to be inspired on a Tuesday. Thank you!
