Ah, we just adore the Campbells. You probably better known them as Soli Photography though!
But it’s funny…for being fellow photographers who had a million friends in common, it actually took a very long time for us to meet! But because of those mutual friends and the fabulous nature of social media, I’m pretty sure we all felt like we knew each other the very first time we met. I’m quite sure that hugs were exchanged, and really, the rest is history.
The Campbells are warm, caring, hilarious, wonderfully relatable, easy-to-love people. And with mutual friends, photographer gatherings, and our daughters being only a few months apart in age, our lives brilliantly cooincide. And even though our schedules keep all of us more than busy, we enjoy getting to see them fairly regularly, and each time we do, we are reminded of just how much we love to be around them.
And so, without further ado, let me wish Meghan and Eric a VERY happy 7th Anniversary! They’ve had a very eventful few months with a crazy workload, oh, ya, and a tree falling on their house. They have held it together beautifully, enduring the strain of not having a home, and being insanely busy, and we admire their positive attitudes. In short, we love them.
Here are some of my favorites from our time together! We started out the session with adorable four year old Madyson…
While Eric took Madyson to get situated with the babysitter, Meghan and I had accidentally got a bit silly…
And then we got to my favorite part: photographing Eric and Meghan alone! Hopefully I did my thing and these two enjoy their anniversary photos!
Love that Meghan is trying to kiss Eric’s hand here. haha
I am so glad the ranger didn’t walk by. Eric and Meghan, always the adventurers, climbed to a top of this chimney type structure which backs up to a cliff!
Had to include at least ONE b&w image.
Thanks for hanging out with me for a couple of hours and being fabulous both in front of and behind the camera!

The Smiths » Soli Photography | Chattanooga Photographer - [...] I could seriously let these photos speak for themselves, but you know I won’t be able to do that! Rich and Heather Smith are amazing friends our ours and and also happen to be seriously awesome photographers. Rich was one of the first photographers in Chattanooga that I looked at when beginning my career as a wedding photographer. He’s always been an encouraging source for me as a photographer and he inspires me as an artist. If I haven’t told you already Rich, thanks so much for that! He also recently photographed our little family, check out his amazing images from that session HERE. [...]
Tobi Weldon - WOW awesome photos! I love this family and I love these pictures. Awesome awesome awesome!!!
Amanda Perry - Love these. I love the cliff at Point Park – and I even more so love the fact that Meghan and Eric climbed up on top of the mini tower!
Meghan - I went from crying, to laughing and smiling in a matter of seconds Rich! How do I even begin to put into words what these photos mean to us…..hmmmm, let me try….you captured the best part of all three of us, happy and smiling together in the most honest moments, despite Madyson’s unwillingness to participate, gotta love her! The images you captured were exactly how I picture our family, happy, loving each other. The pictures of Eric and I alone are too much to handle, SERIOUSLY!? You got the fun side and the sweet, romantic side all rolled into one. This was the most amazing anniversary present anyone could ever give us and we are forever grateful. We love you guys to much!
PS: The pics of me are awesome too!
