A Cold Winter's Day for Family Photos in Lafayette, Indiana

Sometimes you just have to get out of the cold. The McGuire family and I did just that while capturing some family photos in Lafayette. These Purdue alums were happy to show me around the union while we unfroze our fingers.

I’ve been photographing the McGuire family for a few years now and I am always so thrilled when I get the message that its time for another session.

J and D's Dayton Engagement Session at Wegerzyn Gardens

Ohio is for Lovers.

I love going to Dayton Ohio Engagement Photography sessions! I always find a new place to shoot and this time was no exception! The Wegerzyn Gardens is a not so little place right smack dab in the middle of a neighborhood. I would have never known it existed until I was scouting around for great spots to recommend for these two. Now I want to go there all the time!

If you are getting engaged in Dayton and looking for a place to go for photos, I highly recommend these gardens. (Also, I highly recommend you hire me to photograph you!) haha.

The McFarland Wedding at The Sycamore at Mallow Run

Let Love Grow

The Sycamore at Mallow Run in Bargersville, Indiana is an absolutely beautiful wedding venue. I absolutely love a rustic wedding venue and this one is one of my top favorites. The weather that day turned out to be beautiful but it is always great to have a wedding venue big enough to handle moving things inside if needed—especially in Indiana.

My clients are typically couples who want their day captured in a documentary wedding photography style that lets their day unfold naturally and these two were no exception. I had so much fun spending the day with these two and all of their friends and family. Their little flower girl was so funny and totally stole the show! haha

If you are looking for a southern Indianapolis Wedding Venue, I highly recommend The Sycamore at Mallow Run.

Fowler House Engagement Session in Lafayette, Indiana

Making History

The Folwer House Mansion was originally one of their top picks for wedding venues but didn’t work out, so we rented it for an hour on a weekday to do some fun engagement photos there! I love old houses so I was in absolute Heaven walking around this place and playing in all the nooks and crannies. Did you know that you could book out a venue for an engagement session? Most of the time, their off weekend / off season hourly rates are very affordable! Let me know if you have a venue in mind and I’ll reach out to their booking staff!

The Lochner Wedding in Fort Wayne, Indiana

Summer Love

The happiness that spread out from these two was impossible to not get swept up in. It was like a wave of laughter and smiles throughout the whole day. Through the quiet moments and the party, there was a cohesion of friendship that was held together these friends in happiness.

I love traveling up north for Fort Wayne Weddings and I go up that direction regularly so when I got an email from these two about planning their summer wedding at Don Hall’s Guesthouse, I was absolutely on board to document their wedding day. And I am so glad that I did. This group had so much fun and I am so glad that I got to be a part of it!
