Fall Maternity/Family Photoshoot Carmel Indiana

There's something to be said about maternity shoots. It is so exciting to be able to photograph a mother and a child that will be welcomed in this world in just a few short months, wondering and imagining what that child will look like just by looking at a family. I had such a great time photographing this sweet family of 4 [to be five!] and we definitely picked the most gorgeous day to do so. Sweet Sophia was the exact same age as my son, and I knew that this age would be a hard one, as pictures, smiling, and sitting still are not exactly what is on a toddler's agenda {and I don't blame them!} So a lot of leaf throwing, book reading, running around and trying to make her giggle got the job done. She was a trooper, and she had a great mom and dad that just went with the flow.

Beautiful day and a beautiful family.

Engagement Session Downtown Indianapolis; Winter; Kristyn & Erik

This is probably one of my ultimate favorite shoots, and I could probably post every single picture to share as a preview and still call them my favorites. But I'll leave a few surprises for Kristyn and Erik. The funny thing is that I thought it was going to be a complete fail simply because of the weather prediction that morning {which was complete spot on}. Crazy winds. Blowing wind. And although the weather read 31 degrees in my car {which was the highest in a long time}, with the wind in full swing, it felt more like 5.

Regardless, these two were complete troopers and were so down to Earth and easy to shoot!

Maternity Samantha & Jon ; Indianapolis Indiana

A pregnant woman is by far the most beautiful thing out there. Pregnancy is just amazing, and when I see someone, like Samantha, I am instantly taken back to my own memories of carrying my children. I had the pleasure of capturing Samantha & Jon during a cold wintery day, and they were just absolutely amazing to work with, the sweetest together, and their love was very easy to capture. This little boy is already lucky and he doesn't even know it yet.
