❤️ A Booking With A Purpose ❤️

Some couples come through our doors and become part of the Elkins Grove family forever. This sweet couple is one of those couples, and their story has touched our hearts deeply.

After the heartbreaking loss of their precious baby Blaze, they have turned their unimaginable grief into something beautiful by starting a foundation in their baby’s memory to help other families.

Because we believe in them, their mission, and the love behind it, we want to give back.

For a limited time, we are offering a special booking opportunity at Elkins Grove Wedding & Event Venue, and 100% of the proceeds from these bookings will be donated to their foundation. ❤️

And for couples who are able to pay their venue rental in full at the time of booking, we will offer an additional special discount as our way of making this opportunity even more meaningful.

You get to celebrate your love, save on your wedding venue, and at the same time help support a foundation created to honor a precious little life. 🕊️🤍

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to book your wedding, this is a booking that can make a difference far beyond your wedding day.

Message us for the special pricing and available dates.

🤍 The Blaze Strong Foundation

There’s something pretty special about a love story that started in first grade. I’ve shared this story before because it’s so sweet!! I can’t help it. 🥰

Chloe and Lindel have been best friends for years and on August 8th, they made it official. It was great to finally be at Wildflower Barn and I am still melting over the bridal portraits too… SO beautiful! 😍

Unfortunately, a perfectly timed summer shower blew up on us after the last portrait, changing their ceremony plans, but it still didn’t change the day. Chloe’s love of pink brought the prettiest 🩷pop🩷 of color to the reception hall, while Lindel’s blue added his own touch making it all fun and completely them. I already love how this gallery is turning out!

Chloe + Lindel, I’m so happy I got to document this chapter for you. 🩷 More to come!

Headed to the Breezy in October... and I'm hoping to add several more weddings there in 2027! Inquire at www.shaynajohnsonphotography.com 🤎

I’m renaming my favorite Kentucky “ocean view” Proposal Pointe — and it officially has another love story in the books. 🤍💍

If you’re local, you probably know this spot as the jetty in Grand Rivers. I’ve personally dubbed it Proposal Pointe because it’s becoming a pretty great place to pop the question. 😂

The story:
Josh’s family knows my hubby, so when he reached out about photographing his proposal to Olivia, I was especially honored to be part of it. And having this moment photographed was something Olivia really wanted! Let’s be real, a proposal is such a blur of a moment that having it documented is a MUST. 🥰

Oh, Olivia said yes. No shock there. 😂🥹🥰

These two are absolutely precious and so much fun. I’m really hoping they’ll be in front of my camera again real soon!

Congratulations to the future Mr & Mrs Josh Wright! Here’s to this big adventure together. 🤍
