IP in Tennessee

We had heard the name Mac Brown time after time after time - always great things. Finally, Karen met Rebecca Brown-Weaver (Mac Brown's daughter) at the Women's Forum held by H&H in Kansas City recently. Karen came home excited and intrigued with her new found friend. They seemed to have similar opinions about photography, the way they run their businesses, and life in general.

So we decided... it was time to take a trip to visit the Browns at Mac Brown Photographers in Lawrenceburg, TN. We arrived in Nashville last Saturday, ate dinner and had a little dose of karaoke in the city, then headed to Lawrenceburg. Rebecca picked us up for church on Sunday morning and treated us as a part of her family! We met Mac and Kathy Brown at church. They took us to eat lunch at a local diner, which was FABULOUS! They showed us around their town and told us neat little stories about their historic area.

We visited their studio Sunday afternoon and we were in awe! They are on top of their game! This visit was a creative inspiration for our group! Our to-do lists have grown and we've got lots of ideas to implement.

Mac shared a few lighting secrets with Karen while we posed! You know we never mind being in front of the camera! :)





On Monday, we hung out at their studio, brainstormed together, and Tara shared a few Lightroom secrets.

We had such a wonderful time with the Browns. Southern hospitality just doesn't cover the generosity they shared with us. They're the sweetest people we've met! We're hoping they can make a visit to NC soon to visit us and we can return the favor!



Monday evening, we headed back to Nashville for a night on the town. We had a delicious dinner at local restaurant, participated in a little karaoke at "Wanna Be's" and stayed in the center of downtown.



We had a blast! We made new friends. We visited an awesome city and we were inspired creatively! What more could you ask for?
