Nashville Photographers: Join us 2/8, win a year of Smug Mug Pro!
Feb, 7 2010 by Sean
|
For those of you on the Nashville Smug Mug mailing list, I sent out details last week for our February meet up. All photographers are welcome–no need to be a member! Just RSVP here to confirm your spot, as seating is limited. We will be meeting in the theater of the Westhaven Residents club this month at 6:00. If you’ll be getting off work and can’t make it until 6:30, that is no problem–please come anyway! The residents club closes at 8:00, so we’re just setting the start time at 6:00 so that we have plenty of time for everyone to talk and meet each other before it gets started, and then get through everything and finish by 8:00. After that, we’ll probably all be going out for dinner somewhere nearby, and you’re all invited to hang out for as long as you’d like! Part 1: Please email up to 15 of your favorite images from 2009 to sean@mclellanstyle.com. We will be putting together a slideshow featuring everyone’s favorite work from last year and playing it beginning around 6:30 – 6:45. Part 2 (Win a free one year subscription to Smug Mug Pro!) Please bring a print of one of your photographs to this meeting, as well as a penny (please don’t put any identifying marks on the front of the image). We will be setting the images out and you will vote for the one that gives you the strongest emotional reaction by placing your penny on top. The image with the most pennies at the end will win a one year subscription to Smug Mug Pro! Can’t wait to see you all again! For any last minute updates/details, keep an eye on this meetup page, as well as Nashville Smug leaders Sean & Mel on twitter: | |

 Looking for the Perfect Dress? Check out B. Hughes Bridal!
Feb, 3 2010 by Mel
|
This week’s featured vendor is B. Hughes Bridal Formal in the Belle Meade area of Nashville, TN. I can’t say enough about the place! B. Hughes has the most incredible dresses and all of our brides who got their dress through them have been so completely pleased with their experience from start to finish! If you’re looking for a gown from a top designer, B. Hughes has you covered. I was amazed to discover all of the designers that they carry exclusively, not only for the Nashville area, but for the entire state of Tennessee! Designers such as:
Want a little sneak peek of their store before making your appointment? Sean and I went for a visit last week to give you a sampling of what to expect… I love the variation between designers! Flowing to sleek to major bling and all gorgeous! Isn’t it a cute little shop? Wall to wall dresses and window light – my kind of place. I kind of want to get some of these hair pieces and that necklace just to wear on an everyday basis. Would that be so bad? ;0) Meet Karen and Allison – your bridal specialists! If I were getting married now, I think I might have to have that flowy little number on the right – wow. Don’t you just love it? In fact, I might have to go for another visit post partum and just walk around in that thing! If you’re getting married in that dress, call us because I’m in love! ;0) We hope you’ve enjoyed this Featured Vendor Presentation. :0) Give B. Hughes a call to schedule an appointment today! | |

 McLellan Style Vintage Cinema: Bonnie & Daniel’s Vaudeville Wedding
Jan, 31 2010 by Sean
|
Mel and I have been so excited about this wedding ever since we first met with Bonnie & Daniel and they told us they were planning on going all out with a vaudeville/steampunk inspired theme! We speak quite a bit about trying to be unique, do something different, push the limits. As soon as Bonnie & Daniel shared their ideas with us, we immediately started thinking of what we could do for unique display pieces and unique ways to share their wedding imagery with their friends and family. One of the display ideas we came up with is a new take on the “McLellan Style Vintage Cinema” stop-motion montage we posted a couple of years ago and we’re so excited about how it turned out! One really great thing about the wedding was that Bonnie & Daniel were able to get all their guests into the theme as well! Between them dressing for the turn of the century period, most of their guests dressing for the period, and the perfect venues they chose (Union Station Hotel and Cannery Ballroom) it all came together to create something really beautiful. When we finished, we couldn’t wait to share it with Bonnie & Daniel! We did this three months ago and they told us they were going to surprise their friends and family with it as a group over New Years. We didn’t want to spoil it so we’ve been waiting to post it publicly until now. Make sure your sound is turned up! Thanks for looking–and thank you Bonnie & Daniel for going all out, and getting your friends and family involved! | |
