Nashville Aesthetic Dentistry’s Branding Refresh: Showcasing Doctors, Team Spirit, and Radiant Smiles
Nashville Aesthetic Dentistry is one of my favorite clients, and for good reason—I’ve been fortunate to work with them for the past four years, updating their branding, headshots, and marketing photography, and every shoot has been a blast! Their commitment to excellence matches my own, but it’s the laughs, the energy, and the genuine connection that make every collaboration so rewarding.
This most recent shoot was extra exciting because they’ve added two new doctors to the team, which meant it was definitely time for a fresh visual update! With a focus on capturing natural beauty and authentic smiles, Nashville Aesthetic Dentistry sets the bar high, and I love bringing their vision to life in a way that feels vibrant, unique, and totally them. No cookie-cutter smiles here—just pure, joyful individuality. It’s always a good time with this amazing crew, and this session was no exception!
Their chemistry is incredible—it made capturing those fun, candid moments so easy. They’re not just a team; they’re a family. Their positive energy and genuine camaraderie shine through every image.. I couldn’t have asked for a better group to photograph.
The visionary who started it all. Dr. Wells is known for being the dentist behind many entertainers' smiles, including my all-time favorite, Dolly Parton! His revolutionary work with DURAthin veneers transformed cosmetic dentistry, and his passion for crafting custom, natural smiles shines through in everything he does.
Dr. Weese brings a laid-back energy that keeps the atmosphere light—he’s the kind of guy who can get you laughing even with dental tools in your mouth (no easy task!). After years of rigorous training in prosthodontics, he returned to TN with a blend of skill and humor that makes every shoot a joy. I can imagine his patients feel like they’re catching up with an old friend rather than just visiting the dentist.
Dr. Lambert’s sweet and approachable demeanor made her an absolute joy to work with—she's the kind of person who could make even the longest shoot feel easy. I can only imagine her patients must feel incredibly comfortable in her care, especially with her eye for creating smiles that are as genuine as they are stunning.
Dr. Bateman is a fantastic addition to the team. His journey from award-winning gymnast to award-winning dentist is quite the leap—literally. Who knew all those flips and perfect landings would prepare him to handle smiles with such precision? His dedication and passion shine through in every patient interaction, ensuring that every smile he crafts is as flawless as a well-executed routine.
The Impact of Their Work
I had the chance to meet three of Nashville Aesthetic Dentistry's patients who came in to show off their smile makeovers, and they were such a blast to work with. Their enthusiasm was infectious, and it was easy to see why they were chosen for the upcoming advertising campaign—they absolutely lit up in front of the camera. These portraits are more than just new smiles; they capture the vibrant personalities behind them, and I can't wait to see these beautiful images out in the world.
Working with Nashville Aesthetic Dentistry always reminds me why I love doing what I do. It’s not just about capturing beautiful images—it’s about telling stories, celebrating expertise, and highlighting the incredible people behind the work.
Every smile tells a story, and I’m honored to be a part of theirs.
