Georgetown Kentucky Fall Wedding Photography

Rainy weddings are special. It might be easy to think something along the lines of “um, no! please no!” but I think it refocuses couples on the best part of the day - that they’re getting married!

Some anxiety around the threat of rain is understandable though, which is why I cover it in my Bridal Guide. It’s basically a magazine full of inspiration from real weddings I’ve photographed and the best advice on how to help plan your wedding so that you get the best photos possible.

I joke that I’m part meteorologist. I have a nerdy/awesome app on my phone that gives moment by moment weather updates for my specific location so we can utilize even 5 minutes of break from the rain!

When I showed up to the venue, one of the first things that came up was that Kelsey knew I could get great photos with just one porch to work with and that we did!

Fun Facts

  • Kelsey and Andrew met at the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy and both graduated last year!

  • They got engaged in Hawaii (yes really, Hawaii!)

  • They have an adorable dog named Blue (go Wildcats!) and I think he and our Hugo would make great friends :)

  • They’re honeymooning in Barbados!

Kelsey and Andrew are the kind of people that make you feel comfortable right away. They both have a genuine, unassuming warmth. Add on the fact that they both graduated from the UK School of Pharmacy? That makes them a power couple in my book!

In the Details

There were so many beautiful, thought-out details that it’s hard to pick favorites, but I must say their unity cross was a wonderful way to honor their coming together.

Also, can we pause to appreciate Kelsey’s train? Stunning!
