Elizabeth & Nick's Laurel Falls Engagement

Elizabeth and Nick are a Louisiana couple who contacted us when they were making a family trip to the Smoky Mountains. They wanted a unique engagement shoot different from those in the bayou, and we were so happy to oblige.

We decided to go on a hike to capture some sweet moments not only between the two but also some great memories with their son, Nathan. We loved that this cute little blonde was such an integral part of these memories for the couple, and he was so playful and helpful despite being quite cold by the end of journey back from Laurel Falls.

This was a fairly easy hike, but the breathtaking overlooks, quaint bridge at the top, and gorgeous waterfall provided the perfect canvas for these shots.

We hope you enjoy these mountain engagement and family photos!

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.
