Adrienne & Taylor ~ the Engagement

Oh my goodness... I literally held my breath and almost cried when I started browsing through these photos after downloading them from my camera. This session at the Sunken Gardens in Huntington was simply phenomenal. The park itself is not very big, but the photo ops are endless! Adrienne and Taylor were perfect models ~ Adrienne even looking like an absolute angel in some with the sun glowing through her blonde waves!

So looking forward to their wedding next August. Congratulations you two!

Schmidt Family Session

Another beautiful fall session for this loving family! We had a mid-morning shoot at the majestic Shoaff Park in Fort Wayne. A little chilly, but the warm morning light made the autumn colors glow for a stunning backdrop.

This was a special session, bringing the kids together from all over the country to celebrate Tina's birthday. And of course, little Mila stole the show! She was such a good girl even though it was chilly and past her naptime, but she lit right up when we got to the playground!

It was truly a pleasure working with you, Elena! Best wishes to you and your sweet family, and hope to see you again next time you are in town!

The Brown Family Session 2015

Lindsay and David are one of the sweetest couples I know. It seems like just yesterday we were doing a family session for them in downtown Auburn with a special announcement... and now here we are again with a snuggly new family member! Atticus is just as content as could be, and Connor is such a good big brother. What a couple of cuties! And such an amazing back yard view to have as a backdrop!

Thank you Lindsay and David for allowing me to capture such a precious time in your life! Next year we will have to plan a session around chasing a couple of very active little boys!

Cox Family Session 2015

Jessica and Stephen are one of my loyal Indianapolis clients that I still get to photograph once a year, and I always look forward to it! Their kids remind me so much of my own... close to the same ages and very similar personalities. I love it!

We had a bright, sunny afternoon at Forrest Park in Noblesville, and of course the fall colors were in full bloom. Throwing leaves, walking bridges and watching the trains ~ there were so many great settings for this adorable family. Already looking forward to next fall!

Jarin's Senior Session

This kid. I know I'm a little biased, but he's one of the best there is. I've been looking forward to doing Jarin's senior pictures since I first started photography ten years ago. He is quite the model! Of course, knowing who is family is, I have to say it's in the genes. ;) He had an excellent senior year in soccer, makes friends everywhere he goes, and best of all, he has a heart of gold. Sweet, caring and perfectly goofy at times, I am proud to call him family. His parents beam with pride, as they should. They've raised an amazing young man.

We are beyond excited to see where God takes you, Jarin. And so blessed to have you in our lives! Love you much!

Leah's Senior Session

This pretty lady was such a joy to work with! She is the type who has the world at her fingertips - surely to be successful wherever life takes her. She is intelligent, social, so involved in her school, and what a beauty on top of it all. I was so excited with how her session turned out - I seriously can't decide which ones are my favorites between the tall grass in the woods or my hubby's old '57!

Congratulations, Leah, on your acceptance to Purdue! We can't wait to see what amazing things you will do!
