Kentucky Family, Senior, and Parenthood Photography

Serving families in the Louisville, Lexington, Red River Gorge, Southern Indiana, and Kentucky areas.

These sessions are a great way to capture fleeting moments as your family grows and shifts.

Children pave the way for candid photography. I let your kids lead the session and give a little direction paired with a lot of presence, patience and listening. Without much prompting, kids unknowingly set a stage that begs for everyone involved to show up fully.

I’ll notice the small things and the loud things. The tender looks between a mother and her toddler right before he picks his nose . . . the chaos of the kids running into the house covered in mud . . . the shrieks of joy as you chase your kids around the kitchen counter. 

Your ordinary days deserve to be remembered.

“we had the most incredible experience

We booked a family session with Kendra and had the most incredible experience. With 5 kids of all ages, it’s never easy to get quality photographs. Kendra was able to keep up with all the chaos and was even more than willing to offer an extra pair of hands when we needed it. She was engaging, humorous, flexible and realistic. She adapted to the many different moods of our family of 7 and it is obvious in our absolutely stunning photos!!!! We will continue to book Kendra from this point forward. My family LOVED her and we had the best time during what is usually an incredibly stressful event for us. Thank you, Kendra!”
