Photography by Michelle Best of 2021- Nashville Engagements! Some of my favorite sessions are engagements and proposals! There is a sense of nervousness when an engagement starts and I love to see that melt away when we get started! When it comes to proposals that nervousness is ten fold and it seems like you can cut it with a knife! But once he drops to his knee the nervousness disappears and an overwhelming sense of joy fills the air! I love to take some time at the end of the year to look back and reflect on the year.

We did Abby and Derek’s engagement session on her grandfather’s land and it was so special, not to mention beautiful! The light was amazing and these two were incredible and so in love!

Jordan and Corey’s proposal at The Barn at Sycamore Farms was next! Despite it being mid day and the sun was so harsh it was PERFECTION! The look on Jordan’s face was priceless and their closest family and friends were there to celebrate with them.

Chris and Brittany’s engagement session was on her families land in Watertown and it was stunning. The rolling hills made for a perfect setting for this romantic engagement session!

Kimberly and Jason chose Nashville for their destination wedding so they came to town earlier in the year for their engagement session! Jason is a big Tennessee Titans fan so downtown Nashville was the perfect spot for their sweet engagement session!

Brandi and Jacob’s early fall engagement session was so much fun! We went to the Lebanon square and a field. These two never stopped smiling at each other and we had the best time!

Aubrey and Jason chose a special location to them for their engagement session! They met at The Fountains in Murfreesboro, TN for their date nights for months! They would walk, talk, and then have dinner. It is also the location where Jason proposed. So it was only fitting that we used that location for their engagement session!

Mary Brooke and Jackson have known each other since they went to high school at Friendship Christian School. We used some locations around Lebanon, TN since that is their home! I can’t wait for this sweet couples wedding in 2022.

Kyle and Kiera are from New York but were coming to Nashville for vacation! Kyle contacted me about capturing their proposal while they were here and it was perfection! We met at The Parthenon and she said YES! Kiera was so genuinely surprised!

Abigail and Zack decided to have their engagement photos done at their wedding venue and it was gorgeous! The Steel Magnolia Barn in Murfreesboro, TN has so many beautiful spots on their property and is such a stunning location. This is another 2022 wedding that I am counting down the days for!

Rounding out my 2021 engagements and proposals was this sweet December proposal! Scott and Nealy traveled to Nashville from Mississippi just before Christmas and he contacted me a couple weeks before to set up the proposal! We chose the Nashville Pedestrian bridge and it was perfect! They went to The Palm for dinner to celebrate afterward.

I am so honored that all of these sweet couples have chosen to work with me in 2021. I can’t wait to see what 2022 has in store! Love this Best of 2021- Nashville Engagements recap? Here is a full wedding from one of my 2021 weddings!
