Aaron Kemper & Chan Jones Wedding
On April 29, 2016, I had the pleasure of photographing the amazing
wedding of Aaron Kemper and Chan Jones. The wedding took place at the
Kentucky Center for African American Heritage in Louisville, Kentucky.
You wouldn't know just by looking at it, but this building was once a
street trolley barn and dates back to the late 1800's.
Aaron and Chan
are a couple that were made for one another. Both practicing lawyers,
Aaron and Chan seem to have a playful side that definitely came out
during their wedding day.I started the day off photographing Aaron and
his groomsmen—each of whom brought along their own unique style and
personality. A great groomsman has the ability to calm a groom’s nerves
before a wedding, and Aaron’s guys did a great job of this.
Next, I
headed upstairs to photograph Chan and she and her bridesmaids prepared
for the big day. Chan looked amazing in her wedding dress, as did her
bridesmaids.The first-look took place in a quiet room at the very top of
the Heritage Museum. It was at this time that I think Chan and Aaron
realized how big this day truly was.One of the hardest parts about
photographing a wedding is the lighting. But I must say that the
lighting in the Kentucky Center for African American Heritage was
perfect! This was especially helping during the ceremony. Every small
detail of the wedding ceremony was perfect. From the beautiful flower
girl holding the “here comes the bride sign,” to the look on Chan’s
father’s face as he walked his daughter down the aisle. And finally, to
seal the deal, the bride and groom jumped the broom and the groom broke
the glass. As the bride and groom exited the wedding ceremony, their
faces were filled with joy, excitement and relief.? Next, it was time to
party!
One of the favorite moments of the night was photographing Aaron
as he played a song on the piano for his new bride. I have to admit--the
guy has talent! And the wedding party was not afraid to let loose on
the dance floor. Everyone, young and old, celebrated the union of Aaron
and Chan Kemper with a bang!

These are lovely pictures from the wedding and the candid shots came out wonderful. It’s nice to see everyone having such an enjoyable time at the wedding. I’m also hoping to have a great time next week as I’ll be attending my best friend’s wedding at the amazing LA venue.
