Engagement Sessions

On August 15th I met Jennifer and Matt at the Indianapolis Museum of Art for some engagement photographs. What a fun couple! They're getting married in Vegas this November and wanted to kick off the big day in a special way. We had a great time and took some amazing shots. I love shooting at the IMA. . . Here are a few of my favs:





HELLLLOOO!!


A few days later, I met Hannah and Ryan at the White River Gardens to shoot some downtown shots along the canal. Hannah said she was nervous, but really didn't have a reason to be: the pictures are great! This spot was special to them because it's where they went after their first date. I can't wait for their wedding this October!

Bailey and Matt's Wedding

On August 1, 2009 Bailey and Matt tied the knot at a small chapel near Noblesville and then held a beautiful reception at the Ritz Charles in Carmel. Bailey was so stunning!! I loved being a part of her day and being there to capture every moment. Here are a few of my favorites!

Bonny and Rob's Wedding

On July 11, 2009 old high-school sweethearts, Bonny and Rob, finally tied the knot! They have such a great story to tell. . . in the end, they wound up reuniting at a Civil War Re-enactment and decided to get married! The wedding and reception was held at Billie Creek Village in Rockville, IN (where they met up during their re-enactment). With a storm chasing close behind us, the day was none-the-less magical. Their three boys were so charming. What a great family!

The rings!

Tory and Ryan's Wedding

On June 27th, 2009, I drove up to Kokomo for Tory and Ryan's wedding. It was so beautiful. . . everything was very well coordinated and looking spectacular! Tory was (of course) stunning. And SO great to work with. . . I felt like I'd known her for years!! It was an honor to shoot at their wedding -- Thank you!! Here are just a few of my favorites:

Family Family Family!

The 28th and 29th were family days for me. . . First, I took pictures of the Lather family in Avon at Prestwick Golf Course, then to Holiday Park to shoot the Pemberton family and their new 6 month-old bundle of joy!

Bridal Shoot

On June 24th a group of photographers that I work with all got together to work on some bridal shots and play around with lighting techniques. Nicole was our beautiful photographer. We met at Karen Bowling's studio and home - the setting was beautiful and we got lucky that night with an amazing sunset. We all shared some great tips and I went home with some fun new ideas. I can't wait to use them on my brides! Here are some of my favorite shots:

Nicole's Portraits and Ehler's family 6-09-09

Last Tuesday I did two portrait sessions and had so much fun! First, I shot baby Nathan, who is already 6 months old!! He looks just like his brother. . . they were so cute! That evening I took pictures of Nicole up in Noblesville. Sometimes, it's hard to believe she's a mother of two - and normally always stuck BEHIND the camera, it was her time to get in front of it! She was amazing and so model-esque. Me and some other photographers are snatching her up next week to practice lighting techniques for brides!
