There’s something incredibly romantic about a rainy wedding day. The soft patter of raindrops, the cozy atmosphere, and the lush, vibrant greens that only a gentle rain can bring make for a day filled with magic and intimacy. Recently, I had the pleasure of capturing just such a day at the Bradshaw Duncan House in Louisville, with the ceremony held at the enchanting Duncan Memorial Chapel.

As a Lexington family photographer, there’s nothing quite as sweet as seeing a family get together, and this family session brought together three generations: the proud grandparents, the parents who are the heart of the farm, their two sons, their wives, and the delightful grandchildren. Each member of the family, from the elders to the youngest, brought their unique energy and joy, creating a vibrant tapestry of love and connection.

Welcoming a new member to your family is a beautiful and life-changing event. An in-home newborn photography session is a wonderful way to capture those first precious moments in a setting that is comfortable and meaningful. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Marisa + Johnny’s sweet newborn baby girl in Louisville, KY, and I wanted to share the experience along with some tips for parents preparing for their own in-home session.

As a Louisville family photographer, I truly believe there’s something uniquely heartwarming about capturing a baby’s milestones, and a 3-month milestone is particularly special. Recently, I had the joy of photographing the Wroten family as they celebrated baby Elliot’s 3-month milestone in the comfort of their home. This in-home family session was filled with love, laughter, and precious moments that will be cherished forever.

Summer is the season of warmth, vibrant colors, and new beginnings. It’s a time when nature is in full bloom, and there’s no better backdrop for capturing the beauty of pregnancy than Beckley Creek Park. Nestled in the heart of Louisville, Kentucky, this park offers a stunning blend of landscapes, making it the perfect location for a summer maternity session. I first met Courtney + Michael here on a Sunday evening and oh my goodness, it was gorgeous! They were so much fun to work with and laughter flowed throughout the session. The wildflowers and golden hour sun were key players in their session, but they really only added to this already beautiful couple. I’m so excited to meet their sweet baby boy in just a couple of short months.
