The Best Photojournalistic Wedding Photographers in Summer Shade, KY

We always joke that we feel like the black sheep of the wedding industry, and that isn't a bad thing at all. We've stepped away from trend-driven, performative wedding culture, and instead collaborate closely with our couples to create photographs that are personal, honest, and timeless. We achieve this by arriving to your wedding as friends, slipping seamlessly into the natural flow & dynamic of the day, and documenting it all from the inside out. No shot lists, no pressure to keep every hair in place... just real, perfectly imperfect moments unfolding right before our cameras.

My style is cinematic, emotive, and a little nostalgic. Full of rich tones, movement, and all the beautifully imperfect moments that make your story yours. I love the big celebrations just as much as I love the soft in between moments. When you work with me, you’re getting more than someone who shows up with a camera. I’m your timeline helper, dress fluffer, and steady presence when emotions run high. My goal is simple: for you to be fully present while I preserve the feeling of it all.
