Stacey & Nathan - December 13, 2008

Stacey McVay and Nathan Gladson were married on December 13, 2008 at Cofer's Chappel on Franklin Road. I photographed this wedding with a team of photographers. Two of the four perspectives have already been uploaded to the client proofing site. Check out more of their photos at www.mattandrews.printroom.com/McVayGladson.

Shane and Esmeralda Enagagement Portraits

I met Shane and Esmeralda at the Opryland Hotel the weekend after Thanksgiving. We must have hiked a few miles within the hotel; grabbing photos and checking out the Christmas decorations. We had a great time and got some great photos in the process. They will be married May 30, 2009 at Belmont Mansion before going on a honeymoon in Italy.

Frist Center Photos

My wife is the Volunteer Manager for the Frist Center for the Visual Arts and so today when I was asked to swing by and do some photography for them, I decided to volunteer my time. This way I don't have to feel like I'm crashing the Volunteer Party each year!!! I'm still having a lot of fun playing with my new PhotoShop process so I'm uploading HDR photos, though these images don't reflect the majority of my work.

The Hodges Brothers - Photoshop Experiments

This weekend, I photographed 3 brothers who were interested in giving their parents some photos for Christmas. We decided to meet up downtown despite the ominous sky. It was cold and windy but the bottom never fell out and the clouds helped with the photos. I am attaching a few shots in which I have been testing out a Photoshop Process that I've been interested in learning for a while now. It gets you this nearly animated Norman Rockwellish or Lord of the Ringsish look. I imagine it will be popular with musicians since it looks sort of unnatural.... I think it looks cool but you be the judge.
