Keri + Justin :: E - Session Preview

I met Keri back in December and knew I wanted to photograph her wedding after reading her very first email.. she said she wanted a photographer with an artistic, photojournalistic style AND she wanted to set aside a portion of time to take a series bridal party photos around Lexington .. my dream bride! I love it when I get full artistic control and free creative reign :)

Keri loves the gardens at the Henry Clay Ashland Estate so we spent the afternoon walking around there and taking photos. If you're from Kentucky [or anywhere along the East Coast] you are familiar with the absolutely nutty weather we've been having lately. After a few weeks of nonstop rainstorms, I was so excited for the rainclouds to disappear for a bit.

Justin found this gorgeous black and white tree with a carving and we were able to work in the 'in case of rain' umbrella I picked up yesterday. Justin & Keri were so easy to photograph, constantly cracking each other up and Keri has one of the biggest, brightest smiles I've ever seen .. you'll see it in the next post.

Thank you both for such a fun afternoon and being open to trying some non traditional photo ideas!

Looking forward to your wedding!!
