The CMA Festival (aka Fan Fair…but that dates me) brings people into Nashville from all over the world. I was super thrilled with Wes contacted me to do a sweetheart session with his wife, Avenell. They’ve been to the CMA festival before and love Nashville and thought it would be great to have photos on the pedestrian bridge to get the pretty skyline. We met in front of the Country Music Hall of Fame and worked our way to the bridge. We made a few stops near Broadway, but it was a bit chaotic on Broadway since that’s where a live performance for the CMT Awards was going on that same evening. Even though there were lots of people about downtown, we picked a perfect time to be on the bridge because we basically had it to ourselves! Wes is a photographer from San Antonio, Texas. Full disclosure here, I’m always a little nervous to photograph other photographers, but we seemed to hit it off quickly and they were naturals! You can check out Wes’ work here.
