Connor and Emilie had their engagement session in November 2019 at Keeneland in Lexington, KY. It was a chilly night but you cannot tell. They were so so fun adventuring around Keeneland. These two were supposed to get married in May 2020 but as we all know everything in the world was so different. They decided to do a small destination wedding so they didn’t have to wait to be married. Now they will be getting married in May 2021. I can’t wait to capture their bigger celebration with their friends and family.

Y’all not only is this wedding absolutely beautiful but it was FULL of sweetness and sentimental details. Andrew and Blaire were married in July 2019 at Keeneland in Lexington, KY. They also had their rehearsal dinner at The Apiary in Lexington. This wedding was so sweet for me to capture. I am close to the Barnhart family as I’m good friends with Blairs sister and I also shot the wedding of her brother, so it was only fitting for me to capture another BIG event for this sweet family. I hope you all enjoy all the sweet and beautiful moments of this day, Keeneland was the perfect location for an absolutely beautiful day. If you make it to the bottom you can also see a link for the video from Scott Hayes Productions.

Favorite part of planning process: We didn’t stress about it! Partially because we had an amazing planner, Lindsay-who took care of us ABOVE and beyond anything we could have ever imagined-and partially because no matter what happened, we were going to get married and that’s what mattered. AJ says his favorite part was, of course… testing the food.

Matthew and Abigail were SO FUN at their engagement session, just look thru these pictures and see all the laughs and even funny moments they had. I absolutely loved it and it showed their personalities so much. This was a May engagement session at Keeneland in Lexington, KY. Their wedding is coming up at the end of the summer.
