Some engagement sessions are simply filled with so much joy and excitement that you can’t help but smile the whole time. That’s exactly how it felt during Charlie and Katherine’s session at Gardencourt in Louisville, KY. The couple will be tying the knot here in May, and this engagement session was especially meaningful because it was the first time they were able to see their wedding venue in person.
Katherine’s family is from Louisville, and while she and Charlie met and live in Washington, D.C., they knew that Gardencourt would be the perfect place to celebrate their love. The moment they stepped onto the property, their faces lit up with a mixture of excitement and awe. Seeing their future wedding venue for the first time brought an extra layer of joy and connection to the day.
Gardencourt, with its stunning gardens and elegant architecture, provided the perfect backdrop for capturing their love and laughter. You could feel the anticipation building for their wedding day as they walked hand in hand through the gardens, admiring the historic charm of the venue that will soon play such a significant role in their love story.
The entire session was filled with laughter. Charlie and Katherine have an easy, playful dynamic, and their joy was contagious. Whether they were twirling in the garden, strolling by the beautiful fountain, or simply sharing a quiet moment together under the trees, their love radiated. They were so at ease with each other, and their excitement for the future was palpable.
One of the sweetest moments was watching their faces light up as they imagined where different parts of their wedding day will unfold. “This is where we’ll say ‘I do’!” Katherine exclaimed at one point, her eyes sparkling. Seeing their venue in person made everything feel more real and gave them even more to look forward to in the months leading up to their wedding.
It was a joy to capture the beginning of this new chapter for Charlie and Katherine, surrounded by the beauty of Gardencourt and all the laughter and love they share. I can only imagine how magical their wedding day will be in this special place they’ve chosen to start their forever.
