Wedding At The Grand Mansion

February 24, 2012 – 8:48 pm

It is hard to find a more beautiful setting for a wedding than a 1930′s 45,000 square feet mansion, set in the heart of the beautiful Kentucky Bluegrass region. Spindletop Hall, located just north of Lexington is such a place. With its towering columns and floor to ceiling windows this grand old house creates the perfect setting for a romantic wedding day. Tina and Gary selected this setting for their special day. The music room was the perfect place for a small group of guests. Floral decorations made the room perfect for the ceremony. Take a look at some of the images captured in a very special wedding venue. Click here.

Images From Opening Day At The Downs: Views Through The Lens

October 31, 2011 – 11:00 am

What do wedding and event photographers do to relax?  They find something very different to photograph.  This is fun and challenging.  It requires a bit of a different skill set that takes a little practice.  The weather cooperated with a beautiful day.

Horse racing is truly a great spectator sport and opening day in Louisville did not disappoint.  Racing is a splendid and majestic sport to capture with a camera.  The colors, pageantry and horses are as photographic as any game on earth.  So, take a look at some of the images I was able to bring home.  Click here.

An Anniversary Date To Remember

September 16, 2011 – 1:58 pm

Some dates are just right for weddings.  September 10. 2011 (9-10-11) is a great example of one of the most desirable wedding dates of the year.  Kimberley and LeJuan wanted that date for their very own.  They were married in a small downtown church in a beautiful ceremony with family and friends gathered all around.  Nobody present will forget their anniversary as 9-10-11 will stay with everyone present, including me.  The reception was great, as it always is at the Ali Center.  The couple treated all to a wonderful dinner and dancing.  Lots of opportunity for beautiful images, especially sunset.  So, take a look at some of the memories Kim and LeJuan created for themselves and their guests.  Click here.

The Ring Is Not Just For Boxing

August 6, 2011 – 6:49 pm

NaTeSha and Timothy met at the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, Kentucky to slip on the rings, not to climb through the ropes.  With about 200 family and friends gathered at a great venue, the couple went down the aisle that evening and tied the knot.  It was hot and humid, but Timothy and NaTeSha were happy to go outside to get some really beautiful images.  Check out one of the most unusual fountain features you will ever see.  This fountain is most beautiful at night,  The mixture of water and colored lights is outstanding.  Take a look at some of the images captured at this beautiful wedding.  Click here.

A Bride, A Buick, and a Beautiful Day

June 5, 2011 – 12:45 pm

Wow!  How beautiful is the setting for a wedding at a grand old 1920′s hotel?  It can be summed up with one word – spectacular!  The grounds of this roaring 1920′s spot has so many great places for wedding images that we could have stayed over night and spent the next few days shooting.  Sarah and Michael got married in a beautiful garden with their immediate family gathered around.  Take a look at a great selection of pictures from one of the most beautiful wedding venues you will ever see.  Click here.

Wedding At The Capitol

June 2, 2011 – 4:48 pm

Nothing goes better with a beautiful wedding couple on wedding day than a beautiful church.  With absolutely wonderful weather Emily and Darren got married in one of Frankfort, Kentucky’s truly historic churches in a rustic part of downtown.  The reception was held in an equally historic old home on the Kentucky River.  You get the picture, great couple, great church and great reception venue.  What more could a bride and groom ask for.  Take a look at some of the photos captured on wedding day.  Click here.
