Whether you are a bride-to-be, a photographer, or just a visitor, I hope you will find inspiration here and even become a friend.

Wedding :: Cortney Stringer + James Cash :: Part ONE :: Married in Lexington, Kentucky :: My first Kentucky wedding!


***EDITED TO ADD :: Part Two is now posted.  CLICK HERE

To say that I'm excited to share this wedding would be a huge understatement! I have been looking forward to this wedding since way back in October when I met with Cortney. It was my first wedding consultation with a Lexington bride. She shared a little with me about her relationship with James … her plan for styling their wedding … and I knew from the very beginning that we had so much in common. It was a match! I love working with couples just like Cortney and James. My favorite thing about their wedding was that it was truly a reflection of their love for each other. Every little detail was a thoughtful nod to what makes their relationship unique.

There are so many beautiful details and moments that I want to share so I am actually going to break the blog post up into two parts. This is part one! And it will include my favorite images from the first half of the day. As well as a few tid-bits from a Q&A with Cortney … because it's better to hear the details straight from the bride!

Was there a moment when you knew you were in love? I knew I was in love when he took care of me when I had the swine flu. He made sure I had soup, movies, and spot on his couch. He was not the least bit worried about contracting it!

Describe the proposal: James proposed during our drive into Yellowstone. We stopped in the Grand Tetons and he popped the question alongside a winding river.
