A few weeks ago I (Kristin) had the privilege of flying to the place I was born to take some amazing photos for some great friends. I first met Kaitlin last year at the wedding of my dear friends Andrew and Elizabeth in Boston. I fell in love with her super sweet disposition. Read on to see what Kaitlin said about the shoot…
“Jeremy and I met our freshman year; we immediately had many things in common and our relationship developed into a beautiful love story. One of the things we have in common is our love of children’s animated films, particularly Pixar’s for their creative characters and clever stories. We saw ‘Up’ a summer we spent apart. The first 15 minutes, that sweet love story of Carl and Ellie, really moved us both- we knew that we wanted a love like theirs. As we discussed the details of our wedding during our 6 month engagement, we knew that Carl and Ellie’s romance would play a special part in the continuance of our own romance- we just didn’t know how special at the time.
“Almost 6 months into our marriage, I expressed a dissatisfaction with our wedding photos- they just weren’t as romantic as I had dreamed. So, I told the one woman whose wedding photography I admired most: Kristin Smetona. After listening to my story, she offered, “Well, if you fly me to Nashville, I’ll do a post-wedding shoot for you.” Needless to say, I was completely ecstatic and set up the details for Easter weekend. And that weekend was superb- Kristin was her amazing self & took phenomenal photos, the weather was gloriously perfect, and Latrice styled my dreams into reality. I now feel like we’re a true romantic couple, just like Carl and Ellie.”-Kaitlin
We had an absolutely gorgeous day at the Clover Bottom Mansion in Nashville, TN. With the help of the very talented Latrice of http://opulentcouturier.com/, Kaitlin got the romantic photos she had been dreaming of!

Better than I could have ever dreamed. We both look so happy (especially Jeremy!). Kristin, thank you so much for your willingness to fly out to Nashville- you have, without a doubt, made a dream on my bucket list come true: a beautiful shoot done by you.

So cute!

The Carl and Ellie story is now the Jeremy and Kaitlin story with these sweet, playful and romantic photos. Kristin, what lovely photos and what a precious gift to give these two.

These are wonderful. Hard to believe my “baby” is all grown up and married (and off to save China…sorry wrong animated film)
Kristin, thanks for your willingness to support this endeavor. You did a great job.
