Meet Shelby County High School's senior rep. for Lizzie Loo Photography, Chelsea Sutton. We had the most fun on our shoot in Shelbyville, at SCHS and in a flower field.

Stay tuned for more from this great session!

A little shameless self-promotion today - I made all A's with a full 18-hour course load!! Thanks to all of you who gave me a bit of space as I completed my finals - I REALLY appreciated your patience. Enough bragging for now - a quick preview show from Greg & Lana Riney's Derby day wedding.

All senior sessions scheduled through the end of May receive one free set of wallets! My lab mixed it up on me a bit and changed my quantities, so please note that wallet sets have changed to 8 wallets priced at $8, per set. If you have already mailed in an order, your order will be filled as is, but for future orders, please make note of this change.
Have a good day!

School is done and summer is here! I moved home yesterday in near 90 degree temperatures, and am super excited about all of the upcoming photo opportunities. Stay tuned for lots of photos as senior season begins. Today, I have images of Ryan & Emma. All photos were taken at Cherokee Park - a great spot for family shots. Enjoy!
They were super sweet together.


Big brother running circles around little sis.


Emma couldn't get many bubbles blown- but I love this shot of her trying.

Ryan was so helpful with Emma.


Have a Happy Mother's Day!

3 finals down and 3 finals to go before anyone sees any new pictures! So far soooooo good! Thanks for your patience.

Don't forget Mother's Day this weekend! A family or kiddo session is the perfect gift - available through Saturday and perfect for last minute. A personalized gift certificate will be created for your mom, for use at her convenience!

With no photos to post today, I want to redirect you - particularly my brides to TrashtheDress.com. This blog is a collection of photos from photographers all around the world who have wild and willing brides.

The theory is, post-wedding, you won't wear your dress or need it again, so why not make some amazing images in it. Some brides take it to the ocean, drop into a pool, lay in a creek, sit on some train tracks- the variety is great. Some images aren't fabulous - but scan through, look for the awesome uses of light and creativity. I love this site and can't wait to trash a dress!

In the spirit of Derby week, I am posting a few images I shot Monday morning at Churchill Downs.

Many of you know that I am attending Western Kentucky University's AMAZING photojournalism program via a scholarship from the Race for Education. This is an organization that awards merit-based scholarships to students pursuing equine-related degrees or those students who have grown up with working family members in the racehorse industry. The bulk of scholarship funds come from racehorses who have been nominated to the program. Most are signed up to donate 1-2% of their winnings; some as high as 10%. Among the images are Street Sense, a favorite in the derby, who is a Race for Education horse, so as you can imagine I am rooting hard for him! Should he win, his earnings will donate $16,000 to the Race for Education - that is almost one full scholarship.

I hope you got the hint to take a moment to visit the Race for Education website. There is an image on the front page of myself and two other scholarship recipients with Street Sense, as well as tons of information about the Race for Education.

Feel free to leave comments about your Derby and Oaks favorites! Street Sense below!

Lets not forget the oaks ladies! Dreaming of Anna is the first; Mystical Plan is the last.


Have a fabulous day!

This week is DERBY WEEK! I was at the track a lot this weekend, and shot some images of workouts that will share. This photo of the derby tulips stood out to me. I like it a lot.
Have a good day! Seniors and kids to come!

Quick note: I really appreciate those of you who are being very patient in your communication with me. This week and next are very busy for me as I wrap up finals and projects at school. Thanks for your patience!
