It's That Time Of Year Again

Can you believe summer is half over? I can't! Where has the time gone? I had my first senior session this weekend, a sure sign that back-to-school preparations are under way. I'm running some great specials if you book your senior session with me now through the end of August. Call or e-mail today to take advantage as space is filling up and time is running out.

Short And Sweet

For this wedding, my couple decided to keep things simple and sometimes simple is very sophisticated. My mother always taught me that often times, "less is more" and for today's nuptials, I completely agree. Everything from the dress to the cake was kept short and sweet; except for the long honeymoon in Hawaii. Congratulations, enjoy the sunsets.

Union Station

Today was my first visit back to Union Station in downtown, Indianapolis since 1987 and things have certainly changed. What used to be a shopping center and popular teen hang-out has become a grand hotel and banquet hall which is an amazing venue for a wedding. The old architecture of the building and rustic train cars provide for a spectacular setting!

Lights, Camera, Boone County

This year's 4th of July theme brought all the elements of Hollywood right here to Lebanon, Boone County; and this holiday photoshoot was no exception. Can you imagine the surprise I felt as this Hollywood Icon stepped into my picture? "Beam me up Scotty."

Sweetness

Meet Miss Maddy. I spent about 1.5 hours with her and fell in love. We started with birthday cake in my studio and ended with flowers in the park. I could have taken her picture all night long but I had to let her get back to her daddy, especially since it was Father's Day. Aside from Miss Maddy's adorable blue eyes and her sweet little smile, she has an amazing laugh; and, she laughs at everything. These pictures truly say it all...sweetness in it's purest form.

Love Is In The Air

With wedding season in full swing, I've been spending a lot of time shooting engagement sessions. I'm always amazed at the very creative ideas that my clients have incorporating their engagement pictures into their wedding day. In addition to the more traditional ways to use pictures such as slide-show video productions and invitations, I've also seen photo guest registries and picture candy. I find myself making mental notes of the endless possibilities for the day my children walk down the isle.

My Playground

My playground for the weekend was the Mavris Arts and Events Center located downtown, Indy. I've been looking forward to this venue as it provided new and different opportunities with the Indianapolis skyline and the many trains that run up and down the tracks nearby. This particular shot was actually much harder than I had originally thought it would be. Slowing down the shutter made it very difficult to keep my bride and groom in focus but I think my amazingly talented husband finally got it figured out. I hope to return here one day to perfect this particular shot. And until then, CONGRATS to you, Kelsie and Zach, your day was amazing!
