April Manning Photography

April Manning Photography Award winning teen and senior photographer for the Lexington KY area. One year later, I launched my own photography business.

After a whirlwind three years of living overseas, we settled back to the farm in my beautiful hometown of Mount Sterling KY. What a wonderful journey that has been! One of the most important life lessons learned in my years away is to "Capture Moments, Not Things". Let me capture your special moments. I offer affordable options that everyone can afford.

Serving curls, confidence & senior style🤎

From the location to the outfits to that gorgeous golden light! Y’all this session came together SO beautifully. And this senior? Absolutely stunning. Every look brought something different, and I could have photographed her all day🤍 Can’t wait to show off more of my session with Skyler🥰

For the first time ever, I’m booking a limited number of 60-minute senior sessions for September & October. Limited spots & locations are available, so let’s get you on my calendar! 📸 DM me!

A little country charm, a whole lot of her on this beautiful Senior Sunday🤎

This session was every bit as beautiful and special as it looks. From the dreamy golden light and quiet country setting to the lace, cowboy boots, and that perfect hat. This is exactly the kind of session that feels like her and creates images she’ll love for years to come. This definitely was the hottest day of the season so far and look how gorgeous Luz looks 🥰

Still dreaming about your senior session? It’s not too late! I have a limited number of dates available in September & October, but senior season is quickly winding down. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to book, this is it. Let’s create something beautiful that feels completely YOU. 🤎

Some places just make a session unforgettable. Add in a horse and a dog named Irene for instant perfection❤️

Stunning Allison on her family’s farm—the very place her mom grew up. 🤍 There’s something extra special about creating senior portraits in a location that already holds so much family history, and Allison absolutely brought it to life.

And if you’re thinking it’s too late to have an incredible senior session with me… it’s not! 🙌🏻 But senior season is winding down, and the calendar is getting shorter by the day. If you’ve been waiting, now is the time to make it happen.

Your senior year deserves to be documented beautifully. And maybe even somewhere that means a little more.
