More to come in the next couple days, for now, here is a teaser from last nights wedding! Happy 4'th!!

This Is Why I Love What I Do!

I received this email yesterday from Morganne and Sam of last weekends wedding! It was just SO encouraging, and just made me so thankful that I can serve people through Photography and thankful to the Lord for allowing me the Privilege!

Jason!

They look amazing! I cannot thank you enough for you and your lovely wife being a part of our special day! All of my friends were very impressed with you two, and thought that you were fun :) We absolutely love all of the photos. We are so glad that we found you on the knot and you were so understanding of our short time frame. Again, we cannot thank you enough. I don't think anyone else could have done a better job of capturing such a special day.

So many thanks!
Sam and Morganne

Elizabethtown Wedding Photography | Morganne & Sam

Wow, things have been crazy busy around here, which is good but the blog has suffered...my apologies! I have more events to post, however I wanted to start with the most recent wedding this past weekend in E-Town! I had the privilege of shooting Morganne and Sam's wedding hosted by Claudia's Tea Room, a vintage historic home/decorative tea room! It was a warm, yet very beautiful day and I can't say enough about Morganne and Sam! I met Morganne in early May at our consultation and could tell she had great style! I hadn't met Sam until Saturday due to the fact that he is serving in the military and only arrived in town a week or two before the wedding! It didn't take long, however, to realize that he was a very genuine and fun-loving guy. Their love for each other was DEFINITELY evident throughout the entire day which made shooting the wedding a breeze, and also lots of fun! Sam said a number of times that he was so glad to have have a photographer that smiled...I echoed the same sentiments to the two of them! It was a great day!

Aaron + Faith = Hobson

This past weekend I had the privilege of Shooting Aaron and Faith's Wedding in Southern Indiana! It was a beautiful day and I so enjoyed getting to know their families a bit! I also got a chance to see some old friends and make some new ones! Definitely want to give a shout out to Jason Fulton at ICVideo! If you're ever in need of a videographer, check these guys out! There were some great moments during the day! Here are a few of my favs! 








These cuties got to chill inside and watch Robin Hood, one of my favorite disney movies! 

 The anticipation!



Dad holding back the emotion.

Melanie + Brad - Engaged!

Last week I had the privilege of shooting Melanie and Brad's engagement pictures at Bernheim Forest just south of Louisville! Bernheim is such a great place for engagements and was exactly what Melanie had in mind for what she wanted! We were able to grab some great shots! I'm looking forward to their wedding at My Old Kentucky Home in October! 

Cole & Heather - Engaged

Last week I had the opportunity to shoot Cole & Heather's Engagement session. It started out to be quite the stormy day but the sun peaked out at the end and we were able to go have a good time! We headed over to White Hall over on Lexington and then headed over to the Presbyterian seminary to end the session...both had weddings going on BTW, which made things interesting. We were able to stay out of the way, however and still have a good time! by Both Cole & Heather are naturally comfortable and easy going people which made shooting the session quite enjoyable! We'll be heading over to Bernheim Forest this sunday evening for another shoot so stay tuned!! Enjoy

New Things!!

Man things have been busy around hear!! It's turning out to be a great year and I'm really excited about some changes that have been made and some new things to offer! Check out these new proofbooks just delivered from the lab! I just started using them and they are AWESOME! I'm also waiting anxiously for my new sample album lush with high quality leather, full page spreads, flush mount binding, the works. It's like Christmas!! I also picked up a new lens that I'm dying to try out! I'm shooting some engagements tonight so I'll put it to the test and let you know how I like it. Check back and I'll show you! For now, enjoy this juicy procuct goodness!

Be YOUnique!

I'm a big blog reader. I have a "bookmarks" list a mile long that I filter through pretty much daily and at the very least weekly. I do this for inspiration as well as to keep the creative juices flowing at all times!

As I was reading today, one of my many stops is a friend and fellow Photog, Todd Pellowe. He wrote a great post today about things he would like to see at weddings in 2009. He had some great ideas of things that are out of the norm, yet SO fun and unique! I LOVE this! I LOVE unique! I LOVE different!

Personally, I'm not a very traditional person. I don't like to do things because "that's how they've always been done". Maybe you like traditional, then GREAT! As long as its what YOU want. It's YOUR wedding day and one of the most important days of your life. Make it what you want it to be! Be fun, be creative, be YOU!

McMichael Family

Though I don't normally do family shoots, the McMichaels asked me a good while ago if I would shoot a few pictures of their growing family! After getting rained out 3 times, we finally made it work this past Wednesday! It turned out to be a BEAUTIFUL day and I genuinly had a great time getting to know them better! Chris and Leslie have two young boys, Daniel, and newest member of the family is Hudson!

Here's a few of my favorite images!
