Sarah and Joe | Louisville Engagement Photographer | Cherokee Park | Louisville Science Center

It is always an honor to be asked to photograph a friend’s wedding. I always strive to get to know my clients and become friends with them, but when you start out knowing the couple, everything just flows.

Sarah and I used to work together, and now that we don’t see each other on a daily basis, we try really hard to meet once a month for dinner.

A few months ago, it was girl night, Sarah and our friend Melanie met me at the studio. I was so excited to show them my new space, and let them see some of my work, since they were only familiar with my newborn images. (We used to work the on the mother baby floor of a local hospital)

The next day, to my surprise, when I woke up, I had an email, from Sarah, saying her and Joe talked it over, and asked if I would photograph her wedding. HOLY COW, will I? You better believe it.

It was such a HUGE compliment to be asked to be a part of her special day, not only as a friend but as her photographer.

Joe proposed at Cherokee park, so it was only natural that we would start off their Engagement Photos there. They are getting married at The Louisville Science Center, so we did a few there as well. We also stopped in at 21c and did a few shots in there as well.

Now that you have seen Jen and Seth’s Wedding photos, we can move on to the maternity images.

I cannot say, how much I LOVE getting this mama-to-be in front of my camera. She is a natural, and needs no posing. not to mention how beautiful she is!

I cannot wait until baby Madisyn gets here and I can do her newborn photos. She should be here with in the next two weeks, but until then, check out her gorgeous mama!

Jennifer & Seth | Louisville Wedding Photographer | Caldwell Chapel & Louisville Slugger

Not realizing how far behind on blogging I was, I went to post Jen’s maternity photos. I quickly realized that I have never blogged their wedding, which was beyond amazing…….AND over a year ago!!

I’ve known Jen and Seth since high school, where they were high school sweethearts, gosh can’t believe that was over 10 years ago!

When Jen messaged me about her wedding and asked me to photograph her beautiful day, I was so honored, and beyond stoked.

The more she told me, the more excited I was. They held their ceremony at The Caldwell Chapel, and their reception at Louisville Slugger Field, both of which are BEAUTIFUL!!! With Seth being a professional baseball player, they couldn’t have picked a better location.
