Megan and Patrick|The Wedding!! {part one}

You may have noticed the lack of wedding posts lately... we have had so many engagement shoots this summer! So I'm going to try to catch up on posting our favorite weddings in the next few weeks :) Megan and Patrick's wedding was simply fabulous. And such a full day! We started early with all the girls at the Lexington Downtown Hotel as Ana Crane Simpson worked her magic with hair and makeup. Once everyone was ready, we headed to the beautiful First United Methodist Church where they would be married. We took Megan and Patrick to a side courtyard to photograph their "First Look" which was so sweet. These two are such a fun and gorgeous couple! I can't get enough of them!

Here are just a few favorites from the first part of the day... the rest to come soon!











A great shot of the guys by my good friend Adam who joined us for the day...

Flourish Workshop | Bridals

So, I may be the last Flourish attendee to post anything, but oh well... Better late than never, right?

A few weeks ago, I attended the FABULOUS Flourish Workshop here in Louisville at the wonderful Angela Anderson's studio. I can honestly say it was the best investment of time, energy, and money that I have ever put into my business. I learned so much, and made several wonderful new friends! Angela, Kim, and Kitty were amazing to watch and learn from.

One thing I never thought I'd say... I want a studio! I LOVE to shoot on location, and I LOVE natural light. I never liked studio photography... it seemed so boring to me! But, after a day of shooting these fabulous models in Angela's studio, and seeing the amazing photo possibilities that having a studio offers, I want one! Maybe one day...

During the Bridal Session, we had the opportunity to photograph three beautiful models wearing incredible dresses provided by Bluegrass Bride. Our make-up artist for the day, Ana Crane-Simpson, did a fantastic job. Here are a few of my favorites from this session. Enjoy!

First, the stunning Leah in an equally amazing Ramona Keveza dress...











Next, our "romantic bride" Erica, in a gorgeous Paloma Blanca gown.











And last, but certainly not least, our "modern bride" Sarah, in a fantastic Amsale dress.











Thanks to Leah, Erica, and Sarah for being such amazing models!
More from our other fabulous sessions to come soon. Thanks for looking!
