Faith & Kourtland’s Stunning Celebration at 4 Points Farm
May 4, 2024, is a date we’ll remember fondly, thanks to the incredible wedding of Faith and Kourtland at 4 Points Farm in Sevierville, TN. From their unique ceremony to the heartfelt joy that defined the entire day, this wedding was one for the books. We had the absolute pleasure of providing both all-day wedding photography and videography services, and every moment spent with this amazing couple was pure magic.
A Unique Love Story Unfolds
Faith and Kourtland decided to skip the modern trend of a first look, opting instead to keep things traditional. Their first glimpse of each other was during the ceremony, and though Kourtland kept a somewhat stoic demeanor as he saw his bride walking down the aisle, we knew there was a lot going on under the surface. These timeless touches reminded us just how meaningful a wedding day truly is.
But what made this wedding stand out even more was a wedding-day “first” for us—a cowhide branding ceremony. Yes, you read that right! Faith and Kourtland used a custom-made iron to brand a cowhide together, symbolizing their unity as husband and wife and marking the beginning of their new life together. It was a beautiful and deeply personal moment, steeped in tradition with a touch of rustic charm.
A Photographer’s Dream Despite Overcast Skies
The day was overcast, with soft clouds creating even, flattering light throughout. Overcast weather like this is a dream for photographers—no harsh shadows, just naturally diffused light that enhances every detail of the couple, their guests, and their beautifully decorated venue.
The lack of direct sunlight meant that capturing golden-hour photos took a little creativity on our part. As the sunlight stayed hidden, we brought out our lighting equipment and crafted our own golden-hour magic. Faith and Kourtland were so sweet while we worked to create these stunning, romantically lit shots, and the results were absolutely worth it. The images captured their love story in the most beautiful, glowing light, giving them timeless memories to cherish forever.
Fun, Dancing, and Laughter
After the ceremony, the celebration really got underway. 4 Points Farm, with its rustic charm and natural beauty, provided the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable reception. Guests gathered for dancing, laughter, and sweet moments of connection, and we loved capturing every detail of the day—Faith and Kourtland’s shared smiles, heartfelt toasts, and plenty of fun on the dance floor.
From candid moments of the couple sneaking glances at each other to the joyful chaos of group dances with loved ones, the reception brought so much life to a day filled with love. Faith and Kourtland’s family and friends were a delight to photograph and film, with every frame radiating the warmth and joy that surrounded this special day.
Why We’ll Never Forget This Day
Faith and Kourtland’s wedding at 4 Points Farm was a celebration we’ll always remember. Not just for the unique cowhide branding or the creative golden-hour photos, but for the love, laughter, and memories that filled every single moment. From the heartfelt ceremony to the joyful reception, it was one of those weddings that remind us why we love what we do.
