{Evan ♥ Chantelle :: Wedding :: August 13, 2011}

This wedding was so much fun and the scenery was absolutely gorgeous. Corbin, Kentucky is the home of Cumberland Falls and is one of the prettiest places I've been in awhile. The day was hectic and chaotic for everyone, but the bride and groom remained calm and collected the whole day! The ceremony was beautiful and both Chantelle and Evan were so perfect together on their special day. Unfortunately, right after the ceremony, it monsoon rained and cut our time to do portraits drastically. Luckily, Chantelle braved the wet to get some great shots by the waterfall. :) The reception was so fun and everyone had an awesome time. Catching all of the great moments was so fun for me as a photographer. It was a great wedding and I was so honored that I was able to do photos for such great people!

{Garrett ♥ Joanna :: Wedding :: July 16, 2011}

For Garrett and Joanna's wedding, I actually happened to be part of the wedding party! However, I was asked to do some portraits for them anyways and it was definitely an honor. I've been friends with both of them for quite some time now and watching them get married with such love and devotion to each other was great and their pictures definitely reflect that.  Plus, Joanna looked absolutely stunning on her big day.

{Karlee ♥ Senior Shoot :: July 14, 2011}

This shoot was incredibly spur of the moment. Karlee asked me if I wouldn't mind doing some senior pictures for her and I was happy to do it, but we had a limited time. We were rushing to beat the clock because the sun was about to go down and we were going to lose the light FAST. Karlee was great, though, and she looked absolutely gorgeous in all of her pictures. It was a quick shoot, but we still got some great shots and it was awesome to get to work with her.
