Sarah and Billy|Maternity!

I am so excited to have had the opportunity to photograph Sarah and Billy's maternity session! They hold a special place in my heart since we shot their beautiful wedding last year, and I am so thrilled for them during this time! Sarah and Billy have decorated the most adorable nursery, so we spent a good amount of time in it. We then headed out to downtown Frankfort (close to their home) to get some fun shots as well. Here are a few favorites...

Congratulations Sarah and Billy! I can't wait to meet your little bundle of joy :)

Sarah and Gant|The Wedding!!

I cannot even begin to describe how fabulous Sarah and Gant's wedding was! We LOVED it! For starters, they had a small ceremony at the most adorable stone chapel ever (Harrods Creek Baptist Church). It has tons of big windows and bright red shutters, and is very "country" feeling. The ceremony music was perfect... two guys playing bluegrass music! Loved it!! Gant's family has owned a farm here in Kentucky for the past 200 years, and Sarah and Gant decided to take on the incredible task of cleaning out the old tobacco barn on the farm for their reception. I can honestly say I had no idea a barn reception could look so amazing! It was phenomenal. And they put so much thought into all the details. For instance, they were engaged on Derby Day, which ties into the barn reception. And they used horse shoes from Churchill Downs for the place cards, and they cut Derby Pie rather than a cake. I was blown away by it all. Check out a "few" favorites from the day...

And congrats to the Newlyweds!! :)

Gant has an old family photograph of his ancestors at the farm house. We made a new one with the whole family :)
