Waiting on Baby Avery
Brooke + Jeremy recently celebrated their first wedding anniversary but year number two will look a bit different with the addition of a baby girl! :) We spent an evening out on the farm in Bardstown, Kentucky to document this sweet time before little Avery arrives!
Corey + NoΓ«l take Love for a (bike) Ride!
Corey + NoΓ«l are high school sweethearts ready to take on the next adventures together in life! The first of those adventures is their 50lb fur baby named Jax and the next is marriage! :) We enjoyed a summer evening at Keeneland together and ended with a bike ride- but the surprise is that the bikes are special! Corey's grandparent's gave them the vintage bikes that they too rode and loved... but they needed quite a bit of work. After some new tires, tune up and shine they were ready for a new life on the road starting with this photo session! <3
Cheers to John + Toni!
John + Toni met almost a decade ago and have followed each other from New York to Kentucky for jobs and school- frequenting breweries inbetween. They love to spend time together in the Distillery District so we strolled around on a steamy summer evening clinking glasses of beer to all of life's excitements- like their upcoming wedding, trip to the Mediterranean and their Pomeranian pup!
Love a Little Moore
My favorite thing about photographing Joyce + Bryan and their spunky boys is that whenever I show a Joyce a photo on the back of the camera her reply is almost always, "awww, my boys!" regardless of who the photo is of. <3
Join us for a gorgeous sunny evening at Waveland Historic Home together. There were dirty knees and time to swing and the noises of trains and planes and little toes curling in the grass. You donβt want to miss it. <3
LOVE in N.Y.C.
Blair + Eric crossed paths at their work holiday party in 2013 and have been head over heels for each other ever since. Last April Eric flew to Lexington for less than 24 hours to surprise Blair during a girls trip to town and surprised her on UK's campus with a ring and question. She obviously said yes and in proposal fashion- Eric flew home to NYC for less than 24 hours so I could snap some photos of him and Blair loving on each other in Central Park for their engagement session. Join me for their laughter filled session!
Senior | Brantley A.
Meet Brantley! a.k.a. B. Heβs a high school senior with a big heart, a love of sports and a knack for journalism. Heβll be heading to WKU in the fall but you can head to college without taking a few senior pictures. Join us for our sunny spring stroll around Keeneland for his senior photo session!
Yay Bobbie! Happy First!
It's a happy day in the Hester house because little Bobbie is officially a year old! This smiley and easy going guy Mikey Mouse, Donald Duck, watching the cars go by (him and Nelly were two peas in a pod during our photo session on this one!) and clapping whenever someone says, "yay Bobbie!" so- yay for Bobbie! Enjoy this cutie's sweet one year session and family photos at Waveland Historic Home in Lexington, Ky.
B is for Braxton (and baseball! and birthdays!)
If you've followed my work for awhile you may recognize this face! I've done a birthday portrait session for Braxton for all of his 6 trips around the sun. His mom always picks a theme based on what he's loving at that point in his life and at six- it's baseball! Join us for his smile and mud filled portrait session to celebrate his sixth birthday!
Engaged | David + Chelsea
David and Chelsea are an easy going pair that love their cat and corgi fur babies, spending time at Keeneland and vacationing in South Carolina. Join us for their sunny winter engagement session at Goodfellas Pizzeria and Keeneland Racecourse in Lexington, KY.
