I actually met Shelby last year in Frankfort, Kentucky because she was a bridesmaid in past CNP couple Annie and Andrew’s wedding (you can see their wedding here and engagement session here). So photographing Shelby and Brennen’s wedding was a little bit of a mini-reunion!

During Shelby and Brennen’s engagement session (which you can see here), it was very. very. warm! But they were champs and kept joking about how glad they were to know their wedding would be in November (not known for sweltering temps in Louisville).

I’ve been no stranger to rainy weddings this year. This is another great example that you don’t need to have perfect weather to get beautiful results. It’s all about planning and flexibility (and cute clear umbrellas from Amazon). Something Shelby and Brennen did well! Their teaching background came in handy because they came prepared.

Something I’ve noticed about the teachers I know is how giving they are to their students each day. They’re natural servants, so it makes me happy when I get to see someone with those qualities (like Shelby!) be the one that gets celebrated.
