No WAY it’s been two years since these two said “I do.” And there’s absolutely no way it’s been a year since we shot their sweet maternity session in this same location. So, can someone explain how Miss Macie is already a year old?! Because I just know there’s NO WAY! Wow, time really does fly. No matter how much things change in such a short time, one thing stays the same: how adorable this crew is! Miss Macie was great at smiling for the camera, but I really loved all of th

Miss Ella didn’t have many requests or specifications for her senior session, but the one thing she did ask for was fall colors. I am elated to say that the trees definitely understood the assignment! As pretty as the scenery was, my favorite part of this session was getting to see that sweet light shine through Ella. You see, Ella is a little bit reserved and not the biggest fan of getting her portrait taken. I honestly have no idea why. The girl is gorgeous. Nobody knows th

I’m always partial to an October wedding. As someone who is celebrating their anniversary this week, this month always gives me the warm fuzzies. When Lexi and Micah asked me to photograph their October wedding at the Refinery North, it was perhaps the most sentimental “YES!” I’ve ever given. Their venue is where my husband and I went on our first date in 2011 and where he proposed four years later. So, to say I was excited for this one may be a smidge of an understatement. E

One sweet baby boy with dimples, his dog, a few tractors, snuggles for Momma, and bunny kisses for Daddy is apparently the perfect recipe for family portraits. The last time I saw the Macks, Mr. Malachi had not yet made his appearance. Almost two years later, and this kid is driving tractors and spotting “big bucks.” It’s crazy how such a short time can create such a change in our worlds. I’m so thankful that Nate and Kasandra decided to document this time in their family’s s

If anyone ever asks me what my favorite session is, I always know the answer: whichever session is the most recent. And yet again, that stands true. The cool thing about photography is that there is always something to learn, a skill to refine, a creative direction to try… That’s why I can truly say that my favorite session is the last one I shot because I feel like I’m constantly learning and refining. This one, though… I’m really not sure if it will be beat. I mean, come on

What a sweet, sweet bunch of pictures! Saturday gave us an incredible setting for some fall mini sessions. We even had a little bit of color in the trees! What I love most about these images, though, are the people in them. I realized that each of these sessions were long-time clients. There is truly NOTHING better than getting a front row seat to my couples becoming families. Because they’re all pros, we were able to quickly snap the portraits while also getting so many fun

I consider our biennial family portraits to be kind of like my continuing education as a photographer. I am reminded what it’s like to be a client and get everyone dressed and ready for a session. Up until this year, my entire family has always been within the same county. Even then, it was difficult to get on everyone’s schedules. Now we have two new additions, one all the way from Norway, and I really wanted an updated portrait while she was here. We all found one singular

When Elise booked a session last year, I knew her and Mr. Asher Gray would be the perfect models, once again. What I didn’t know is there there would be four more. When Jared walked in, I was like, “Wait a second. I know you.” Jared was the DJ at a couple of previous weddings. Elise is one of my very first clients. It was the same kind of feeling I used to get watching the old Disney Channel crossover episodes. Now these two individuals that I knew separately only because of

One of my most favorite families will soon be a party of five! I’ve seen Emersyn and Hudsyn grow up right before my eyes and I know they will be the best big sister and brother ever! The Shiremans brought me to a dream fall location where we celebrated the soon arrival of their newest addition among the sunflowers and pumpkins. The “tie breaker” will remain a surprise until he or she makes their debut. I usually have a strong feeling, but I just can’t make up my mind! Boy or

What a beautiful transition into fall family portrait season! I met this fun crew in one of (hopefully) the last hot days of the season, athough you could never tell that they were out in the heat. They knocked it out of the park, pun intended! Wrapped in the gorgeous southern Indiana greenery, this family gave me some amazing family portraits, but I loved the outtakes and silly moments in between even more! Thanks for a super fun session!
