Last fall, I had the opportunity to photograph Tom and Bethany’s wedding at Morais Vineyards in Warrenton, Virginia. Driving onto the property, it’s easy to wonder whether you’ve arrived in Virginia or somewhere in the European countryside. With its Portuguese-inspired architecture, the vineyard has an old-world character that made a beautiful setting for their November […]

The gardens at Whitehall Mansion are one of the loveliest wedding venues in Louisville and I’m so honored to have captured Jared & Caroline’s wedding day there last June. Happy anniversary, you two! From the moment I talked with Caroline, her personality shined right through the phone. She is so kind, vibrant, and makes you […]

Hello blogging world! I am back! I’ve taken a few years off to have babies (yes, multiple babies if you didn’t know!), but that’s a whole other blog post. This post is all about Tanner & Celeste and their incredible colorful Churchill Downs wedding day. I see so much of myself and my husband Matt […]

The Proposal Plan I love the anticipation of a wedding day, but there is something especially fun about photographing a surprise proposal. When Jake asked me to photograph his proposal at his future in-laws’ lake house, I was SO in! Jake said some college friends were coming into town for a weekend at the new […]

Caleb & Aline: Peterson Dumesnil House Wedding I had the amazing opportunity to photograph this spring wedding at the historic Peterson Dumesnil House. Matt attends seminary in Crescent Hill and I’ve driven along the block next to this house hundreds of times and yet this quaint, historic home sat just up a hill off a […]

Truman & Rachel: Upstairs Atlanta Rainy Fall Wedding Weddings sometimes take me to new, fun places. This rainy fall wedding was an especially fun one taking me all the way from Louisville KY to Atlanta GA! Previously, I wrote about my relationship with Rachel in the post about their engagement session. I adore her and […]

The Pointe Louisville KY Wedding As I was beginning this wedding day at The Pointe in Louisville KY, I noticed something. Kellsy left no detail untouched. She put her and Tommy’s stamp on each and every element of this beautiful, joyful, unique day. We joked with Tommy that he was great at wedding planning. But […]

The maternity season is so fleeting even though in the moment, especially the last 6ish weeks, it feels like forever. I love getting to help friends remember this brief time when the anticipation of meeting your newest love is high and the discomfort may be even higher, haha. A woman’s body is remarkable and in […]

I know the months of November-March aren’t the most ideal for photos. The grass turns brown, the trees are bare, and of course, it’s generally COLD. But there is just something so lovely about wintertime, even without snow. The light is softer and more flattering because the sun doesn’t get quite as high in the […]

With it being the off-season, I’ve had a lot of time to reflect on my business, weddings, and my own wedding. As a wedding photographer, I get asked lots of questions about the decisions I made for my wedding – what I’d change – what advice I would give to other brides-to-be, and I have […]

Cherokee Park and Door to Nowhere Engagement: Most of us across the country are definitely feeling winter! It’s been cold EVERYWHERE. My scarves, thick socks, and winter coat have been getting a lot of use! On New Year’s Eve, I had the pleasure of meeting up with Peter and Kathryn to do their engagement photos […]

In addition to wedding day coverage, I offer beautiful, timeless wedding albums. Marcus & Samantha chose to invest in a beautiful, linen album of their gorgeous preppy wedding day last summer. And now it will sit on their coffee table as they welcome a new baby into the world this fall. I love it! That is […]

It’s here! It’s here! Oh my goodness, I can hardly believe this is real life and that this is my actual website and not the mockup that I’ve been loving and staring at for the last month. Eeeek! There is so much to say about my new site and all the amazing features that Elise […]

Alright, friends. I’m the worst with surprises. I always end up “letting the cat out of the bag” and if you’ve been following me over on Instagram, you’ve gotten a lot of hints about this… so take a good look around this website because as of this weekend… it’s gone! I’ve been working closely with […]

I usually try to blog a Behind the Scenes post at the end of the year, but with all our traveling I was away from my harddrives and couldn’t retrieve any of my images! So, what better way to kick off 2017 on the blog than with incredibly embarrassing photos of myself? I look through […]
