Kentucky and Southern Indiana High School Senior Portraits: Maddie

It has been a while since we featured some of our high school senior portrait clients!  We do love photographing weddings, but we also love high school seniors!  From the classic portraits to the cool, edgy, contemporary looks–we do it all for our high school seniors!

Check out our pricing and session info RIGHT HERE!

Maddie was a real treat–she wanted a mix of studio and location work, so we did both, of course!  And her family came with her, so we photographed a couple of family portraits while we were at it, too!

Just a couple of my favorites–she is so great!

Lovely fall weather...

And a fun yearbook portrait!

Pretty in pink!

Love this one, too! More tomorrow!

 

Kentucky and Southern Indiana Wedding Photographers: Wedding Album Feature

Happy Monday!

I wanted to feature a lovely wedding album–Dana and Matt got married a few years ago, but decided to come back and get a wedding album as a gift for themselves!  So, they chose the images and we designed it from scratch!  They chose our glossy-cover album and I love it!

We have albums at various budget levels, so check out our web site at MONARCH PHOTOGRAPHY and remember that we are currently offering 10% off of any of our wedding collections!

Check out Dana and Matt’s album below–love it!

Beautiful colors on the front cover!

Lovely page spreads...

Heirloom, hand-bound quality--made in Tennessee, too! Southern style!

Fun party collage of images for the reception!

Louisville Kentucky Wedding Photographers: A Most FABULOUS “Save the Date” Idea!

Everyone always asks about great new ideas on how to use their engagement portraits!  We have had couples make awesome guest books, signature gallery wraps, bookmarks, slide shows, drink cozies, etc.!

So, I was THRILLED when I went to the Monarch mailbox and found that we had a special delivery–a “Save the Date” magnet for Melanie and Corey–we are photographing their wedding this coming June!

I asked Melanie if we could show off their magnet in full and she said “Abs0lutely!”

Check it out right here–what a cute idea!

Creative, fun, totally cool people–those are Monarch couples!

Kentucky and Indiana Wedding Photographers: Nicki and Chris’ Wedding Album

Oh, there are so many wonderful wedding albums to share with you!

We have so many different styles of albums, ranging from hand-bound Italian styles to glossy covers, leather matted albums, and much more!

Nicki and Chris chose the lovely Amore’ Wedding Album, which is our special hand-bound Italian book.  They chose the lovely acrylic cover and the BLINGINGLY (I made up that word) awesome black and silver wrap-around cover!

And we always design these albums with the images that our COUPLES choose–after all it’s your day, so why not choose the images that go into the most important collection of images from your day?

I design all of these images from scratch!  We don’t use templates and we don’t hire other people to design for us!  And we love creating beautiful keepsake albums for our couples!

Check out some actual images of their lovely album!

And congrats to Nicki and Chris, who are expecting their first baby in a few months!

Our Italian albums come in a gorgeous silk box...

And it is nestled in a satin bag inside the box!

And the silver laser engraving on the band--so pretty!

The image on the cover is encased in crystal clear acrylic...

Heirloom quality craftmanship...

Beautiful page spreads!

A collection of their favorite moments...

Non-bendable pages that are preserved with a UV coating! Built to last!

And a gorgeous black and silver fabric cover! SO fab!

 

Louisville Kentucky Wedding Photographers: A Lovely Candid Image…

Just wanted to remind everyone that we are extending our DOWNTOWN WEDDING SHOW SPECIAL to all prospective Monarch Wedding Couples!  That’s right–10% off of any wedding collection!  This special (and rare) offer ends on February 10, so be sure to get your consultation on the calendar today!

We only accept 10 wedding commisions every year, so be sure to become a part of the Monarch family!

Today’s image is one of my favorites–it was taken at the moment before Andrea and her sweet dad, Scott, walked down the aisle.  I love everything about this candid image–the lighting, the shadows, and the way it captures the anticipation of the big moment!

We love capturing details, candid moments, and classic portraiture–and it shows in our work!

Wedding photography is a true investment that you make in the first step of your journey together.  Choose a studio that you can trust, believe, and KNOW that will give you  beautiful images!  Enjoy the Monarch Difference!
