Why the Big Orange Bus?

 

The Big Orange Bus, an old VW bus, provides a memorable setting for mini-sessions.

Its retro charm is the perfect way to end the summer and celebrate the upcoming University of Tennessee Volunteer Football Season!

Convenient Location

 

Located in the center of Knoxville, these mini-sessions are easily accessible! The sessions will be at the Laurel Church of Christ parking lot (3457 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN 37919) next to the shaded Third Creek Greenway! The shaded location also ensures comfortable shooting during the summer day, providing a hassle-free experience for everyone!

Reasons for Mini-Sessions

 

There is always time for great pictures-- no matter what phase of life you are in!

 

There are many reasons for mini-sessions. Here are just a few:

 

1. You've always wanted a quick family session.

 

2. Your family photos are outdated, and you need new ones.

 

3. It's a way to capture your love of the V-O-L-S.

 

4. You want a stress-free experience with your little children.

 

These mini-sessions offer a convenient and affordable way for individuals or families to have professional photos taken during various meaningful life phases. EMP is an all-inclusive Knoxville photographer.

I sent over 47,000 images to clients in 2024. When I tell you that indecision fatigue is a real thing when posting to social media, I mean it. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, here is a single photo to post. I love it. It’s a favorite. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The story? 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Pretty simple. The best man dropped the rings and we all about lost our minds 🤣

Brides & Grooms, take note! The biggest timeline delay I saw in 2024 across multiple weddings at multiple venues? 

Getting-ready logistics!

If you want your VIP (Mom, sibling, bestie) to help you into your outfit, they need to be ready before your photographer arrives.

This isn’t a requirement, but if you’re envisioning those special, candid moments—make sure their hair, makeup, and outfits are done so they can focus on YOU.

This also goes for those moments where people need to tie a tie, or fold a pocket square! Make sure to try those items on before the wedding day 😉 

💡 Pro tip: Your HMUAs are amazing! Work with your hair and makeup team to create a schedule that ensures anyone helping you get dressed is ready before your photographer arrives. This keeps everything running smoothly and stress-free!
