Recently I had the exciting opportunity to be the photographer for a wedding at the Crown Plaza at Historic Union Station with one of my favorite couples! Amanda was such a beautiful bride it made taking photos easy. We watched as the main hall was transformed into a creative and elaborate fairytale-like ceremony hall that reflected the bride’s look for the day. From the dress, to the flowers, to the long romantic aisle, all the way to the unique archway, everything was perfect. The wedding planner Darcie Kornmeyer totally captured Amanda and Ryan’s vision for their special day. She was so awesome to work with and between her and Katie everything went so smoothly! They were awesome to work with and made it so the bride and groom didn’t have to worry about a thing! It was sweet to watch Amanda in her excitement as she got ready to marry Ryan. At one point she told a friend, “I’m just ready to marry him!” So sweet!
The ceremony hall was then transformed afterwards by a team of people into a grand reception hall that Darcie had designed with Amanda and Ryan. Everything about this wedding day was perfect!
Congratulations Amanda and Ryan!

I had so much fun with the Drummond family during their family photo session! It was a surprise photo shoot Christmas present from Abby and her brothers to their parents. What a great gift idea! We did the session at our studio in downtown Muncie.
It was funny to watch the dynamics of the family and was surprisingly easy to capture smiles and laughter with Andrew and Adam cracking jokes and being funny. Never a dull moment with those guys around…and Abby in the middle of it!
They were a really fun family and I am so glad I got to meet them!

So, I get this phone call at about the time we start getting busy with next years seniors. It was a mom that was interested in scheduling something for her son’s senior pictures. When asking about a timeline and a schedule her answer was, “well, he leaves for collage August 10, he already graduated”. OK, that’s cool, just have to hurry this one along a bit. We met the following week at a family friends property. With a lake, a field, flowers and a crazy, huge white dog to use a props we found it easy to fill the session time with various poses and locations. Hope you’re having fun in Colorado Daniel, glad I got to meet you before you left!

 

So, this little sweet pea I have photographed a few times now. I loved her personality after the last photo shoot and this photo shoot was no different. When I got the phone call from her mom about Zoey's second birthday photo session, she mentioned many times, she wants somewhere different, something unique and pretty country...Zoey does, btw, loves wearing her Cowgirl boots so it's only fitting that we find a country setting full of personality! I threw out a couple of ideas and we settled on the perfect location.  I met the three of them for our session and Zoey was cheerful, smiling and ready to go! She is the first 2 year girl old I've seen that isn't scared of grasshoppers, bugs or getting dirty and getting right down in it.  We walked all around our spot with grasshoppers jumping everywhere, wild flowers growing everywhere and a spunky 2 year old that was loving it all!  I'm so flattered, Jodann, that I'm getting to know you and your little girl!  I love your relationship and can tell you she knows she is one loved little girl!
