David is an actor, independent film maker and owner of his own fully integrated digital production company, Feel Thunder Media. After spending a decade in Los Angeles, David and I reconnected when he moved back to Kentucky and created together in downtown Lexington, Kentucky.

With the arrival of Hadley Grace, dad is officially outnumbered! The Petit family welcomed their second baby girl this summer and they invited me into their home to document them together.

This adorable pair met at church in their hometown of Madisonville, Kentucky- which was the setting for their engagement session! We strolled through downtown, stopped by their church (which included their senior scout projects built next to each other years before they ever met) and ended the evening at sunset on the land where they’ll build their home together.

These two are effortlessly joyful and photographing them was the same. Enjoy some of my favorites from their engagement session and I can’t wait to celebrate with them next year! <3

Jessica was the type of girl who swore she’d never get married… until she met Mathew- obviously. :) As plans came together they decided on an intimate wedding on Earth Day, April 22nd, with sunrise ceremony plans in place… life dealt them a new card- a pandemic. They persevered with their original date and got married on the front lawn of Jessica’s mother’s house with an intimate affair but traded sunrise for sunset and spaced chairs for their family 6 feet apart. It was a day filled with joy that turned out absolutely perfect for them. I hope you enjoy seeing some favorites!

Meet Isabel! She’s a 2020 high school senior and we snapped some portraits of her at Ashland, Henry Clay Estate in Lexington, Kentucky to celebrate her upcoming graduation. Enjoy some of my favorites from our session together!

Drew + Nazeeha met in medical school and have since traveled the world together. This hilarious, compassionate and fun loving pair even got engaged in the Himalayan mountains. They married on first weekend in October at the Vintage Barn at Merefield Farm in Midway, Kentucky in 2019 with a two day, multicultural celebration. Enjoy my favorites from this beautiful chapter in their love story!

Kate and Jonathan met at the Lexington farmers market, had their first of many dates at Cup of Commonwealth coffee shop and plan to be married at Limestone Hall. We visited the places that are part of the past, present and future in their love story for their engagement session and it was so much fun. I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from our time together!

Billy + Alex are cat loving, Netflix binging, pizza eating, UK Wildcat loving beer connoisseurs. They are effortlessly fun with each other and it was a blast to bounce around Lexington with them for an evening to document their love for each other at the University of Kentucky and their favorite watering hole, West Sixth Brewery. I hope their personalities shine through the photos and that you enjoy some of my favorites from our session together! <3

Brad and Bennett are high school best friends that realized they had a thing for each other in college. They have since made Lexington their home together with their three sweet pups! When they aren’t working they love to spend time outdoors on the weekends in Red River Gorge- which is where they recently got engaged! We spent a beautiful fall evening at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky for their engagement session to catch the fall color and capture their love for each other. Enjoy some of my favorite images from our time together! <3
