In 2005, I photographed the garden ceremony of Elizabeth and Robert at
Riverwood Mansion in Nashville.

Riverwood has beautiful gardens and a few different locations for outdoor ceremonies. Elizabeth's father is deceased so her brother walked her down the aisle.


It is surprisingly common for someone to drop one of the rings during the ceremony. Robert dropped Elizabeth's ring, but then she mistakenly put his ring on the wrong hand.



I'm not a big fan of long lists of formal group photos, but I usually do a photo of the couple with their immediate families and one with their extended families. The extended family photo doesn't include every possible relative though. It includes parents, grandparents, siblings, and the siblings' spouses and children. Elizabeth has a lot of siblings which made for a large group!
