Backyard Comfort Meets Elegance

Good evening!  We have a treat for you! You’ve seen glimpses of it at the top of this blog or on my Facebook timeline, now see the whole picture… a René Tate Photography Inspired Shoot.

A couple of weeks ago, Jesie and I put our heads together to create a styled shoot that just oozed René Tate Photography. Not only did we need some new images for our blog facelift, but we also did this to inspire us and inspire you.

This is us.  From our colors, to our furniture, to my grandparents’ wedding photos, to our clients-turned-friends.  We chose to feature Scott and Alicia – a couple we photographed in October 0f 2011 – for a few reasons.  A.) They embody our ideal clients – more on that later.  B.) They’re not bad to look at. ;-) and C.) These two got about 5 minutes of “bride and groom portrait time” during their wedding day cause their day was incredibly cold and windy so it couldn’t hurt to have a few more images of them – olive green adorned or not.

We want to give a special shout out to Amber and Catherine from Twigs and Posies for creating such gorgeous floral arrangements!  We couldn’t have done this shoot without them.

Enjoy these and leave us some love!  We’d really like to hear your thoughts.

With Joy,
René

With 20 years of experience, I bring a calm, steady presence to your most meaningful days. I specialize in documenting relationships over time—from weddings and anniversaries to babies and families—with a love for black-and-white imagery, honest moments, and photographs that belong in albums, not just on a feed. There are no forced poses or “pretend to” prompts here, only space for what’s real. I’m not just here for the highlight; I’m here for the history you’re creating.

And I can't wait to capture your story
