lakeside love story

Love, Laughter, and Golden Light - the adventures at heart, Connor & Alexis tie the knot tucked away in Kentucky's lush landscape. Their wedding vision was simple. Keep it extremly intimate & deeply meaningful. From wind-blown swept moments to a celebratory vintage car send off, every photo tells a story of their adventures together.

From rose florals to hand-written vows and barefoot moments on the shore, every detail reflected who they are as a couple: relaxed, deeply in love, and grounded in what matters most.

A location that feels like a love story


There's something special about lake weddings- maybe it's the stillness, the reflections, the way the lights dances across the surface as the day fades. This particular spot felt like it was made just for them. Surrounded by trees and the soft sounds of nature, it offered a peaceful escape for their closest friends and family.

moments that stole the show

As a wedding photographer, it's these in-between moments- the quiet smiles, the emotional glances, the wild laughter as they drove off in their family heirloom vintage Mercedes - that I love for and this wedding had them in abundance.

under the Evening Glow

From the gentle ripples on the water to the soft golden light spilling over the distant hills - the couple's lake front wedding was pure magic.

  • that quiet first look by the water


  • a golden-hour ceremony with the lake shimmering behind them


  • Their joyful, barefoot first dance under a sunset glow


  • And of course, sneaking away for dreamy evening portraits by the edge
