MANGO Photography - Savor Life's Sweetest Moments!

LOVE is in the air... and I don't know if you've noticed, but it seems like this holiday season was filled with triple the engagements than usual! I'm not really sure what is considered 'normal', but SO many couples chose recently - and especially New Years Eve - to get engaged! Congratulations to all of you lucky lovebirds! And if you're not one, then odds are that you know a few! Now comes the super fun part... PLANNING!! (No worries, it really CAN be fun!)

The great news is that all angles of your photography & video needs are under control - in every single way. Promise.

MANGO Photography specializes in covering every important event and moment leading up to the most beautiful day of your life and everything thereafter. But FIRST things first: You need engagement photos. And these aren't your parent's portraits anymore. Nor are they the unfocused & lifeless shots that are soon forgotten. These are striking and sharp, true-to-life moments that will last forever just the way you remember them.
Engagement sessions are fun and quirky, sweet and adoring, and sometimes downright ridiculous! They can be a simple reflection of your love - or you can really get creative and reenact your favorite movie scene! There is also a full time hair and makeup stylist to make you look you absolute best for all of your memorable moments.



MANGO creates timeless Bridal portraits that will capture the bride to be as the glowing celebrity she is, flawless and complete wedding coverage (including epic documentary videos by Visionspire) and fun family photos for everyone to love. Book a memory-making day for yourself and your family soon!

A New Studio!

WHEW! The past few months have been so exciting and busy! (Not to mention getting through the holidays...) But I have survived and have some fantastic new things for Show and Tell!

In December I moved to a new workspace and am now making people beautiful in the MANGO Photography Studio in downtown Louisville!! They specialize in epic wedding photography, bridal portraits, senior photos, family portraits, and beautiful engagement sessions. It is an awesome environment and also the Louisville location for Andrew Kung Photography. Their work is incredible and there isn't anything in the world of photography that they don't knock out of the park! I am their full time makeup artist and stylist, so if you book a session with them, I will more than likely be helping you look your best!

I hope to see several of your faces soon!

Chickens and Pigs, Oh My!

Last week I worked with Jami Guess (J Guess Photography) styling a country/bohemian bridal shoot with the lovely Nisha Abraham. It was the most fabulous, beautiful day EVER! After I finished doing her hair and makeup we headed for the fresh air of Sunny Acres Farm. (Visit Sunny Acre's Facebook!)



There were so many things that we wanted to do and places that we wanted to shoot, but were limited by the ridiculous amount of rain and flooding that had come through a few days prior... so we had to stick to the high grounds. There was an old overgrown red truck in a field that was of great use, beautiful fields of yellow wildflowers, a pig named Emma that followed us everywhere and liked candy, peacocks, a horse named Grandma... and the list goes on....



Nisha was amazing and the first pose she struck in the barn was my favorite of the day I think - Followed by the field of flowers. Even I hopped into a few shots! We both took advantage of the red truck. And of course I couldn't NOT get in a picture with a chicken!! What more high fashion than having a chicken under your arm?! Haha! There was lots of hiking in heels, but overall the day was quite dreamy and we escaped relativity unharmed by insects considering the immense amount of hairspray present! Truly a miracle! I really can't wait to go back and maybe work with some of their beautiful horses next time. Stay tuned for that....
