Michael + Jacquelyn // A Bardstown and Mellwood Art Center Engagement Session

10/31/17

Often when there’s a threat of rain, I’ll get a panicked call about options, scheduling and what to do. I was so thrilled these two trusted me when I said, I’d love to go for it despite the weather! The rain sprinkles and overcast sky were the perfect setting for our adventure through Louisville.

Jacquelyn and Michael met for the first time while out with a group of friends, and to hear them share about that first night is pretty hilarious! She was there to meet her cousin, and didn’t really pay much attention to Michael. After a whole night hanging out, Jacquelyn got back to the house, noticed a Facebook friend request and thought, “Who’s Michael Simon?” Haha! Good thing Michael noticed her. 😉  8 years later, here they are, sweet as ever, planing their June wedding! (Which is going to be insanely gorgeous!!)

I loved getting to explore some urban areas  with them throughout Louisville. Carmichael’s Bookstore on Bardstown road was a must, as they’re avid readers. We followed our time there with Mellwood Art Center, and I have to say, it was such a sweet evening! Thank you for trusting me, choosing me and all around being some amazing clients! It has been such a pleasure getting to know you all more, and your care and attention to each other is endearing. I’m so excited for June!

    What a stunning engagement session! Those ring shots with the books are so bright and colorful. LOVE the concept! I wish I would have doing something like this for my own engagement pictures, because it’s so personal. Mellwood Art Center and Carmichael’s were perfect! Gorgeous work!

    Rainy day engagements are the best, but book store engagements are even better!  I love that your couple trusted you and that you used your creativity to work around whatever the weather offered you.  This just shows you can have an adventure anywhere (not just the mountains).  Well done!
