Sneak peek

so i totally got confused on Peak and Peek today.. i had a brain freeze and wondered if i had been using it wrong this whole time.. lol. i actually had to look it up, but thankfully i’m good :) haha. I wanted to give you PEEK at a family photography session that i am working on. We had a lot of fun hanging around Louisville Seminary where they both graduated (and me too, for that matter). They are going overseas shortly and i am also working on a prayer card for them.. so stay tuned :).

I’ve known Kyle since he was in 6th grade and now he is a SENIOR. Wow.. i feel old. I feel even older for saying that .. haha. His family is one of my faves… a few years ago, we had a church photo directory made with pictures of all the families. Kyle and his family showed up in crazy outfits… stripes and checks and everything else you can imagine. They still have it up in their house. Haha… they are so much fun.. so i knew my Photography session with Kyle was going to be fun!! Here is a glimpse of my senior shoot with Kyle… complete with canoe, cowboy hat and tennis racket.. :)

Here’s a little peek at a Louisville Engagement Photography session…
More to come….. :)

LIAM is 1 years old and he just moved away from Louisville. Well… i couldn’t miss him turning 1 – i’m his personal photographer.. haha. I have been able to photograph him twice so far in his life and hopefully many more years to come. Check out his earlier baby photography session. He is adorable and i so loved getting to celebrate him turning one!! Here are some of my favorites. Say hi to the folks, Liam.

One of the best parts of being a wedding photographer is taking engagement photos. The engagement photo session allows the photographer to get to know the bride and groom and get a feel for who they are before the wedding. I also find that engagement sessions helps the bride and groom become more comfortable with their wedding photographer so that you end up with some amazing shots. That’s what happened with Emily and Luke as they began to be comfortable with me and get creative and make suggestions by their end of their shoot. So enjoyed getting to know them. And i am looking forward to their Louisville WEDDING in just a few weeks!!!

We spent the day in Louisville and had so much fun. Luke really surprised me when he showed up with his uniform on.. it totally changed the game plan for the day! And we went to Old Louisville and St. James Park to match what he was wearing with the best background. Here are some of my favorites.

I love Emily’s sass!! Her personality is so bubbly and fun.. she is adorable. I like how Luke is keeping his composure.. “like he has been trained”… but i think he may have a soft spot for some little cutey!!

Happy Birthday Liam!! I took his baby photos just about 4 mo’s ago. So, it was fun to see how he has grown. Here is a sneak peek of his baby photography session.

Amanda is the bride that has got everything together.. she booked me as her wedding photographer about 16 months in advance! Her Louisville wedding is coming this October and I just know it will be fabulous!!! We had an amazing engagement photography session at Yew Dell Gardens, just outside of Louisville. The flowers and barn style buildings at Yew Dell made for great photographs. Here are some of my favorites:
