We spent a sunny September Saturday photographing Ashley and Matt's gorgeous wedding at Whitestone Country Inn. This was a true celebration and a day full of joy, which is clearly evident from the bride's expressions in these photos throughout the day.

We loved capturing some adorable photos of Ashley and her bridesmaids having a little fun before a sentimental and truly perfect first look between the bride and her father. His reaction was priceless as was their playful, surprise choreographed dance at the reception. The day also featured an unexpected wedding party member, Ashley's adorable pup, Rubie, adorned with a floral collar.We also loved that Ashley and Matt requested a first look with the groom blindfolded so that they could share an intimate moment before the ceremony but also maintain the tradition of the groom seeing the bride for the first time as she walked down the aisle to meet him.

Whitestone Country Inn features a lovely chapel with lots of natural light and beautiful wooden doors embellished with stained glass crosses. Starting with a ring warming where all the guests had a chance to hold the couple's rings and say a silent prayer or blessing, Ashley and Matt's ceremony incorporated the exchanging of personalized vows.

The couple loves to travel together, and during the reception, guests were seated at tables decorated with photos in locations the two have visited. Rustic details, classic elements, and spectacular bouquets and floral head pieces for the girls added special touches to make Ashley and Matt's day even more elegant.

Join us in congratulating Ashley and Matt, and enjoy these pictures from their special day.

Jason Messing

Who are we? We are Jason and Staci Messing, a husband and wife photography team based in Knoxville, Tennessee. We met in 2007, starting dating in 2008, and have been together ever since. We were married at the Capitol Theatre in Maryville in 2012, and our special day actually led to our interest in photography and inspired us to pursue our dream of owning our own business.  (See our wedding story here!)  Our family team grew when we had our sweet son, Jaden, in 2014, and he's already reviewing our photos for us.

What's our style? The adjectives we always used to describe our photography style are light, airy, natural and whimsical. We would say our job is to capture all the amazing moments of your big day so that you have a tangible memory of the people, details, and surroundings that make your wedding special. We essentially want your day to look like a fairy tale, and it's all about making even the ordinary exceptional by photographing meaningful and candid moments.

What about the name? Jason's business actually started as one centered around music production and video editing.  Juicebeats, his nickname as a producer and rapper, inspired our company name, originally Juicebeats Productions. In 2013, the business evolved into one focused on a new creative outlet, photography, and it was only natural that Staci jumped on board in late 2014 as the 2nd shooter/photographer assistant. We debated a name change (for 12 seconds) until we realized that Juicebeats is unique, memorable, and just us.
