One of the most remarkable things about the evenin One of the most remarkable things about the evening James proposed to TiJah was how dramatically the light shifted within the span of one hour—from dark gray skies and snowflakes to a parting of the clouds and the golden rays of a Winter sunset.

It was a cold, cold, COLD day at Cherokee Park in It was a cold, cold, COLD day at Cherokee Park in Louisville, but Katie and Kayla had been holding out hope for a snow session since October. We’ve photographed their families in every other season, so when the right window finally came along, we all crossed our fingers, bundled up, and headed to the park. And for the whole frigid thing to end in a snowball fight? Winter picture perfect 🤌🏻

When James was ready to pop the question to TiJah, When James was ready to pop the question to TiJah, he brought her to the Falls of the Ohio, the scene of their very first date. We had to act for a while like random landscape photographers who were REALLY interested in the flooded Ohio River 😅 but we managed to be in the right place at the right time to capture this once-in-a-lifetime moment. Congratulations, TiJah and James!
