How long has it been since I’ve posted an engagement session???  I’ve shot lots of fun sessions this year, I’ll try to get a few of them posted!

Meet Lauren and Tom:

Tom is a pro cyclist and races at the Velodrome so of course we had to go there for their engagement session!  After a few shots here, we ran across the street to IMA for a few more.   Check out some of my favorites:

I just posted pictures from Caitlin and John’s Chicago Wedding here, but thought this deserved it’s own post:)

The morning of the wedding they did what they called a slog… technically a slow jog, on the way to breakfast.   Everyone was supposed to wear 80′s clothes, and they danced along to an ipod.   It really was a blast!

Several months ago I shot a very fun wedding in Chicago and I never finished posting it so I thought I’d throw some of my favorites online.

Caitlin and John were married in Chicago, they had a very small intimate wedding, only inviting their closest friends and immediate family.  I loved it!  The ceremony was held a Maxim’s, and the reception on Lake Michigan on Odyssey II.

John and Caitlin wrote their own vows… well, really they did their own ceremony for the most part.  John’s dad technically officiated, but it was very personal with just Caitlin and John on stage for the majority of the ceremony.

They did a sand ceremony instead of a unity candle, and the stand had a mirror,  this image show’s John’s mom watching as he’s reading the vows.

Check out this emblem… it’s obviously not in focus… can you tell what kind of car this is

Check out the view during dinner!

I recently shot Evan’s senior pictures around my studio in Carmel,  he came all the way from Danville High School!
Last night Evan and his family came back to see his pictures,  they LOVED them!

Here’s a few fav’s

Last week I shot for Estridge as they rebuilt a home for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

If you’re in the Indy area, you’ve heard a lot about this already, but if you haven’t it’s going to be the season finale at the end of April.  This is different than most of the shows they’ve done as so much was done for the whole community, and it was nice to be a part of it.  

Some of the neighboring houses:

This might be part of the show… you’ll have to watch to see who got shoved into the cement

Paul Estridge and Mayor Greg Ballard

Jen and Ryan, here’s a few teaser images from your wedding

The weather for a December wedding was PERFECT!

I just added a new gallery and mixed in a few new pics here and there.

Meet Kimberly and Ben:

I’m in Greenville South Carolina over Christmas this year and got to meet up with Kimberly and Ben.  I lived here several years ago so I was excited when Kim sent me an email when she got engaged.  There are so many cool places to shoot here I was excited at the opportunity.

Anyway, it was tough nailing down a few favorites to post, but check these out:

 This has got to be the coolest tree I know of!

I got to shoot Brea’s senior pictures, Brea’s mom is friends with Merrin’s mom, so we were able to go back to where Merrin and Greg were married.

Here’s a few of my favorite pictures from her session

Thanks for checking out my NEW blog!

I can post large images with this blog and I can actually customize it!   I know, I’m SOOOOO behind on blogging this year, I need to be better at posting more often.. so add me to your RSS feed, and comment once in a while!

And of course I have to post a picture to show off the size of this blog,  this is one of my favorite pictures from the last few months and it’s not been posted anywhere yet.
