  • Everything’s Coming Up Roses…

    And lilies, gerbera daisies, hydrangea, tulips, sunflowers, berries, and much more! I love flowers–and so it’s a no-brainer that I love photographing them, particularly bridal bouquets!  I always adore seeing the lovely floral creations that our brides carry on their special day, so I wanted to feature some over the past few weddings! If you see a bouquet you like and want more information, just shoot us an e-mail!  I keep a list of all of the vendors our couples [...]

Enjoy this one, though!  I love it!

It is from Tracy and Wes’ wedding earlier this year and is just so lovely…enjoy!

  • Rehearsal Dinner Cruise: Josh and Jennifer

    I can’t believe it has already been a week since we had a lovely sunset river cruise for Josh and Jennifer’s rehearsal dinner!  We were so thrilled to be a part of it, so I wanted to share a few images from the trip down the Ohio River to downtown Louisville.  The weather was warm, the food was fantastic, and everyone had a perfect time sailing down the river and back to Captain’s Quarters on the CQ Princess!  And a [...]
