Our story starts in Lexington Kentucky when I met these two at the Kentucky Bride Magazine’s How Charming Bridal Event! I remember Taryn walking over to my table and starting up a fabulous conversation with me. We talked for the longest time and then her fiance Stephen came over. We all three talked some more. A few weeks later, they booked SSP for their big day and I was absolutely ecstatic.
Taryn loves architecture so it’s no mystery why she chose two gorgeous venues in Louisville for their engagement session. We got to explore Oxmoor Farm Estate for the first venue. HOW stunning! When we wrapped up things there we headed over to the Peterson-Dumesnil House. Both locations had their own unique vibe and gosh I loved both of these locations! I’m so incredibly grateful to be able to have couples that book us from afar and trust us with their memories!!
Stephen and Taryn are just absolutely incredible. What a power couple through and through. I had an absolute blast documenting this special season they are in, meeting their parents and dogs and having such a great time in Louisville. I can’t wait for their Kentucky wedding next May!

✅ 1. Set Boundaries With Your Calendar No more saying yes to everything. I only take a set number of weddings per year and I block off weekends for my family, rest, or personal creative projects. I also don’t love working on Sundays {I love going to church and spending that day with my family and friends} so […]
