love this image, just wanted to share.

have an amazing day.

*and to the many, many people wanting to see this particular wedding (I know that it is lots of you), they aren’t ready yet, but I promise to share soon :)

Justin and I are house sitting for a couple months at an amazing house with a beautiful property and as we where walking back from visiting the horses last night these stunning clouds headed our way. We never had rain, but it was quite a sight!

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing one of my very favorite artists, Ken Swinson (check out his website/blog). Justin & I are currently obsessed with his work and it was so great to see his studio and the paintings he had been working on. I gave Justin one of his prints of Maysville for his birthday and our “we want this” list is growing really, really long! It was such a fun shoot and I wanted to share a few of my favorites.

Ken, thanks for a great shoot! Hope to see you soon!
The painting in the left image is a view of the rowhouses Justin & I lived in while in Maysville! It’s still in progress, but we definitly plan to add it to our collection when it’s finished.

Well, I guess it is about time I post this.
Cassidy Dawn Photography will offically be based out of Chillicothe, Ohio as of this Saturday! I know what you’re thinking…you’ve always been based out of Chillicothe, Ohio. While this is partially true, the other side of it is that we actually live in Maysville, Kentucky.
As much as we love Maysville, our goal has always been to move back to Ross County, it really is where are hearts are. So as of Saturday, we will be local once again. :)
So if you have noticed a string of strange and irregular posts on the blog, you can fully expect them for a few more days. The packing it taking it toll. Everything we have will actually be in storage for about 2 months while we are house sitting for some very dear friends, so we have to be over the top organized with everything that is packed; however, I do promise to get this blog back to some type of normalcy eventually, just hang tight.

Thank you all for being so amazing.
I’ve had a ton of inquires for summer portraits start to pour in, so if you are thinking you’d like some and haven’t emailed yet, please let me know. I’d love to get you on the calender!

For something more “businessy”, check out the new seniors promo. I am so excited about them and can’t wait to get them out and about!

This post is simply to say happy birthday to my amazing husband. Justin turned the big 23 today and we went to Cincinnati to celebrate. We had dinner at P.F. Changs, and went to check out the soon to be newest member of the Drummond family, she’s beautiful and we shall call her Stella. All joking aside, we are so so excited to make the change!

Justin didn’t want me to make a cake because we’ve already packed up what I needed (more on that soon…) and all he wanted was ice cream. His favorite is swirl, but they have been out for a while, so vanilla it was:
Now, time for Lost.
My parents got Justin Season 1 of Lost for his birthday and now he is insisting on watching it every night to catch me up (I’m a bit behind), so I’d better start paying attention!

I love you, Justin!
Happy, happy birthday! It really was a wonderful day!

Happy Father’s Day!!!
I love you daddy!!!

I was just editing some images and loved this one I found of little Mya, she is so cute!

I know I’ve sent you over to look at the website a lot lately, but how about one more time?!
Many of the galleries have been updated, and we’ve even added a couple of new sections.
Be sure to check out all of it!

She’s stunning, isn’t she? I was absolutely thrilled when Heidi asked me to photograph her wedding. I’ve known this family for quite a while, and there are two solid facts I’ve always known about them. They are as sweet as can be, and they have style! Needless to say, I was very excited!

Heidi & Nathan had a *beautiful* wedding on May 3rd. It was just the right mix of class, sophistication, and down home fun! I love relaxed weddings where you can really have a wonderful time with everyone there. Everyone had the best time.
I wanted to share a few of the images from the day, but stay tuned over the next few days and you’ll be treated to a sneak peak of one of our newest product offerings – custom slideshows!


I love this image of Heidi, she looked so beautiful!

The cake was by Erin Allsop of The Cake Kitchen. She does beautiful work, and her cakes taste amazing. (Seriously, I’ve had *many* wedding cakes, and her’s are at the top of my list!!!) Be sure to check her out if you are in need of a cake, you won’t be disappointed!





A favorite!


Thank you Heidi & Nathan for allowing me to be a part of your day, I am truly honored.

This past Saturday, Justin and I went to the absolutely adorable town of Augusta, Kentucky for Art in the Garden. We had a great time looking at local artists’ work and exploring the great little town. Here are a few pictures I snapped of the day.

Did I mention how adorable it was! Perfect for a photo session!
This booth belongs to my favorite local artist, Ken Swinson; we are so obsessed with his work!

Justin is actually looking at the same print I got him for his birthday in this photo!
This is where we ate! So cute!We found this next treasure in a local antique store. We were convinced that the price tag was wrong (so low!), so there was no way we were leaving without it!
It looks great with our ever growing collection of random pieces. We have yet to visit a furniture store to get any furniture. They all have a story, and we love that! And frankly, you wouldn’t believe me if I told you the kind of deals we’ve found! *we’ve furnished our entire (huge) apartment for under $150.00…I’m not kidding!
Thanks for reading today!
