A Jenis Ice Cream and Percy Warner Park engagement session may just be the perfect pair. And Emma and Zac had so much fun during theirs! We had beautiful golden light, and these two shared so many giggles during this sweet Nashville engagement shoot!
One of my favorite this about being a Nashville wedding photographer is getting to meet the incredible couples I serve. Since these two had their first date at Jenis Ice cream inside the Nashville Farmers Market, well…we had to begin there! After meeting on Bumble several years ago, they made their first date a simple one; Jeni’s Ice Cream and good conversation.
Telling your story begins as we plan engagement sessions. Lucky for me, Emma had some amazing ideas already dreamed up! It really is all about telling your story. So incorporating this spot to start that means so much to how they began…well, it makes my heart happy.
Next, Emma and Zac headed to take engagement photos in front of the Percy Warner Stairs. We lucked out with perfect weather! Being from Michigan, Emma is a die-hard Tigers fan. First, they started in some Detroit Tigers jerseys with their last name and wedding year on the back! You guys, how cute are they!
Next, a quick outfit change and we ventured to the iconic stairs for some classic Nashville engagement pictures. Zac twirled his bride to be, and the rest of the nerves left them as they became complete naturals in front of the camera! Finally, we finished up their Percy Warner Park Nashville engagement session by venturing through the park together. What a perfect way to include so many personal touches as we begin to tell their love story!
