Minnetrista Spring Flowers
While awaiting my Mother’s Day Mini Session clients yesterday, I took my 35mm Nikon Lens and captured some of Minnetrista’s beautiful spring flowers. It’s been a while since I have captured something for myself and it made my heart so happy. I came home edited some of my client’s photos and then threw a handful of my flowers into lightroom to edit and share with you all. I am a firm believer, especially the longer that I run my business, that you NEED to shoot for yourself not just others. I am so excited to be growing my own wildflower garden this summer for Cory and I’s wedding, I have added on to my flower garden in our side yard and will be growing all kinds of flowers for our wedding. I will also be photographing them with my newest lens, that allows me to Free-Lens shoot. I AM SO EXCITED TO TRY IT OUT HERE SOON, for now enjoy these spring flowers!

Review From Bride & Groom
“And of course, we are so grateful for our photographers! Cassie and Kyla were rock-stars the whole day, who not only kept us and our families on schedule during photos, but made us feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. They were so kind and professional, and felt like friends hanging out with us throughout the day capturing our special moments! We are so grateful to have had them as a part of our day! ”

Andrea & Brian // Wedding
Andrea and Brian's wedding was held on the campus of IU in a small chapel with immediate family. After the ceremony the couple traveled by bus to the IU football game to tailgate with friends and family at their RV, while still in their wedding attire. The reception was held several hours later at Deer Park. Their reception was elegant and beautifully decorated with lights and floral arrangements. The couple are die hard IU sports fans and it definitely showed!
The couple got married in a small chapel on IU's campus in Bloomington, Indiana, with immediate family and then followed up with tailgating with friends and family members for several hours. After leaving their RV and red solo cups, they finished the evening with a reception at Deer Park. The reception was absolutely beautiful with a white tent and strings of lights covering the inside of the tent ceiling, guests popped open surprise gold crowns that were left at their place settings and wore them the rest of the evening. Even though it poured during their reception, they did not let that stop the party!
Reddie & Shelly // Elopement
Reddie and Shelly eloped at the Anderson courthouse with their children and grandchildren right at their sides. Following their sweet elopement we gathered in the park and captured the two of them and their family. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your very special day.
