Get ready for a lot of posts over the next couple days. I had a bunch of shoots last week and now I want to share a few highlights from the week. Below is shoot #1. I appreciate Abby and Courtney's willingness to traipse all around Talon with me. I had a great time with them and found a couple new photos spots at the vineyard as well. Happy Wednesday!
This was my first full South Asian wedding and I'd say it was a success! I had the best weekend with Yasmin and Sunny's friends and family. I cannot thank them enough for including Gabe and me in their ceremony and reception. Here is are the highlights from their beautiful Sunday celebration.
Yasmin looked stunning. She had four different outfits throughout the weekend and she looked perfect in each one of them. As always, Ana Crane-Simpson rocked out the hair and makeup.
Sunny is looking very handsome.
They look perfect together!
Oh the color!
It was smokin' hot on the day of the wedding so we opted to do most of the pictures inside Embassy Suites.
Getting ready to party.
Before the reception we all hopped in our car and drove to the pond in front of the hotel. Yasmin had on about four inch heels and was a trooper was we walked down to the trees. I'd say it was worth it.
Martine hit a home run with the cakes.
First dance shot by Gabe!
One of my favorite parts of the day was the music!
Thanks again! Especially to Yasmin and Nargis!

This lovely little family visited Lexington last week from England. Little Malory told me she was here on holiday and I about melted. Hannah (mom) and I have been in contact for a couple months after baby James' mom referred her to me. It was a pleasure to meet them. Malory and Callum are extremely adorable and everyone (parents, grandparents, myself) did everything we could to make them smile. Our efforts were not in vain. I love these photos!
The awesome veil is only the beginning of Brittany's fabulous style.
We hopped in the car at the conclusion of this shoot and Gabe says, "That was intense." He was right. We shot in construction, the middle of the street, weeds, chiggers, and lightening for this engagement session. Right when we finished it started raining. I loved every minute of it though. On the way home I wouldn't touch my legs even though they were itching like crazy because I was sure I had gotten poison ivy. I got home and showered and, I am ashamed to admit, scrubbed my legs with a Clorox wipe. I've never had it before! Gabe laughed at me the whole time. Thanks for being troopers, Christina and Lucas. You were brave amongst the lightening bolts.
They could be models!
I love the car shot. I was just clicking away as the traffic drove by and I found this little gem as we were reviewing the pictures. Shout out to Gabe. It was his idea to shoot the building.
Johanna and Robbs were very laid back at Monday's shoot and I like it that way. They so relaxed with each other and I am glad this great quality shows through in their photos. We shot at sunset and the light was just beautiful. Johanna and Robbs were patient with us as we tried a couple tricks with the flash too. That is one reason I love engagement shoots: I get to know my couples more and experiment with photography! Their wedding will be held at their horse farm next month so just had to shoot at Keeneland to keep the theme alive. Thanks guys!
