Addison & Hunter's Wedding at Barn Thirty-Eight
These two know how to throw a party! I was laughing and smiling the entire day from behind the camera, jamming out while getting ready, bouquets getting thrown in the air during bridal party photos, kissing and cuddles from Hunter and Addison, and such a beautiful day for a wedding! So many special moments, their preview had me smiling while editing remembering back to their wedding day.

Makayla & Joe's Wedding at The Country Club
I absolutely loved capturing Makayla & Joe’s wedding day at the Delaware Country Club this September. They were the coolest and laid back couple ever. Their first look was stinking adorable, their ceremony was held during a golf tournament and the two of them could not have cared less who was around them, Makayla & her dad’s father daughter dance had everyone smiling and cheering. Makayla & Joe are made for one another and I loved being able to capture their love for one another and their family’s love for them!

Haley & Tyler Stockton's Wedding at The Carriage House of Yorktown
Haley & Tyler may not have gotten married in the Bahamas as their invites showed (thanks Corona), but I am pretty sure The Carriage House of Yorktown made their day just as special. I loved being able to capture these two, their bridal party, and all of their family. (Part one of their Wedding Preview, because I may have went a little over board with editing their preview photos! Be on the lookout for family and bridal party photos later this morning.) I am so glad that I got to meet these two super sweet people and photograph their special day.

Austin & Ariana's Wedding at the Delaware Country Club
When a couple loves like this couple loves one another, capturing their wedding day is just so easy! Any moment they could be kissing and holding each other, they were. From the moment I saw these two together, I knew they were meant to be. They love one another so effortlessly and that showed through in all of their wedding photos. It was reallllly windy and chilly out on their wedding day, but Austin Burton wrapped Ariana up in her coat and carried her from spot to spot, he played her a song on his guitar, and admired her the entire day. I have known Austin since we were young, and this is the happiest I have ever seen him. Congratulations you two on a beautiful wedding, and future together! Thanks for being such troopers in the cold and making me ohh and ahhh over you guys all day!

Ruthie & Anthony's Wedding at The Carriage House of Yorktown
Ruthie & Anthony were married at The Carriage House of Yorktown, and it was such an elegant and classy day with such beautiful fall weather.

She did a first look with her dad after her mom helped her into her wedding dress, she did a dance with her dad and then surprised her mom with a special dance that brought her to tears, and both parents gave such sweet speeches at the reception. It was an amazing day at such a gorgeous venue. All of the bridal party were so much fun to work with and so supportive through out their special day.

Marissa & Josh Jones were married at The Ballroom at Cardinal Hill’s on October 12, 2019 and their entire day was absolutely magical. Marissa was an absolute QUEEN! The two of them prayed with their bridal party, worshipped during their ceremony, cut pie in place of their cake, and had the most beautiful vows written to each other. Their love for one another showed throughout every moment of their wedding day and I can not wait to see what the future holds for the two of them, I know it will be AMAZING!

Danielle and Drake's Wedding At The Barn at Cottonwood with Kyla Jo Photography
Danielle & Drake were married on October 5, 2019 at The Barn at Cottonwood in Parker City, Indiana. They are high school sweethearts and had the two most adorable doggies who were included on their special day. Their bridal party was so much fun to photograph and a huge part of their day. I think I laughed and smiled more at their reception than I ever have before, the dance floor was full almost the entire time! Thank you Danielle & Drake for having me capture your wedding day, I might have went a little over board with your preview! Woops!

Ariel & Matthew's Wedding Day at Meg's Country Celebrations with Kyla Jo Photography
Ariel & Matthew Brown's wedding was held at Meg's Country Celebrations last Sunday and the rain did not stop us from capturing gorgeous photos of their special day. They decided to move their ceremony inside the barn, but as soon as it was over the rain cleared up for beautiful photos. The two wore their Vans on their feet and a smile on their face the entire day. They kissed a million times and it made me smile each time, seeing their love for one another so apparent! So many special dances were held in that barn during their reception and Baby Shark was even played for all of the little ones! Congratulations to Ariel and Matthew on your wedding, and thank you for having me capture it!

Katelyn & Jacob's Wedding Day // August 24, 2019
Katelyn & Jacob’s wedding day was absolutely gorgeous. Their venue was amazing with their ceremony right in front of a huge willow tree and an arch way her dad made for her. Both of their families were so supportive and sweet, their bridal party was so much fun to be around, and her best friend Dixie (her doggy) was next to her all day. It was a magical day with her gorgeous dress and smile and their love for one another. I was so so happy to capture their special day for them! I can not wait to see what their future holds for them!

Danielle & Mason - Engagement
Danielle & Mason are the sweetest couple, they drove about an hour for me to capture their engagement photos, and were so adventurous during their session (which I appreciate so much!) I love being able to capture my wedding couple's engagement photos as well, that gives us some time to get to know one another and get to know each other's personalities. After our session, they told me how happy they were that they had found me (which makes me so happy to hear).
I always try and make our sessions fun with cuddles and giggles. I will give my couples different scenarios to act out, which usually results in the best natural laughs EVER! This couple did every impression and scenario the best I have ever seen, they had me giggling behind my camera even and saying aww! You can really see their love for one another in all the smiles and sweet moments that I captured.
Here is just a sneak peek at your many photos! I am so excited to capture your wedding next year, YAY!

Leah & Devin Wedding Reception
Get you a man that looks at you like Devin looks at Leah! I loved being able to capture Leah & Devin’s second wedding reception. It poured rain on my drive there and snowed about 2 inches on my way home. Somewhere in between Indiana’s dramatic weather, we got about 40 minutes to capture family, bridal, and couple portraits outside! The Cope Environmental Center was such a modern and unique venue, I loved the modern architecture and the natural light pouring in from outside. These two are so sweet and laid back, and have so much love for one another. Here is a large sneak peek of their family portraits, couple portraits, and a few details from their wedding reception.

I am still trying to process this past weekend’s Reset Conference in Louisville Kentucky at the Seelbach. I started out my weekend with a shootout at the hotel with Tara Ruby, which was absolutely amazing. I will be sharing photos here soon, she worked with us on composites, props, bean bag poses and two adorable little babies who made great models. After leaving Tara’s shootout, I headed to the Heigold Facade with Vanessa Hicks at 5pm.
She had a gorgeous stylized shoot planned for all of us, with 3 different stations. My first station was the dining table with gorgeous place settings, a huge dining table, and beautiful florals. After leaving the dining table we photographed all of the stationary, details, shoes, and rings. I am such a big detail person, so this was my jam! Vanessa did an amazing job on collecting and bringing detail items for us to shoot and layout together. This is where we photographed the cake and huge sign against the old brick background. My final station was the bride and groom, luckily they were actually a real couple and engaged (we hit the jackpot)! Taylor and Tyler both were such good models, so sweet and cuddly. I loved the door way and industrial look of the location.
We were shooting in straight sun, but made the absolute best of it! Thank you so much Vanessa Hicks, for all of your hard work choosing and working with all of the vendors all the way from Hawaii.
This past weekend, I learned so much. I took so many notes, and have so many ideas to put towards my business. I got to attend so many talented photographers and business owner’s talks. (I included a list of the speakers and shootout leaders that I got the privilege of learning under, below.) Did I mention that I already bought my ticket for next years Reset Conference in Lexington? If you are a fellow photographer, you should definitely plan on coming next March 28-29th and meet and learn from some amazing and talented photographers.

Locations For Sessions
This blog post is for those of you who have scheduled a session with Kyla Jo Photography and now you are wondering, “Where should we have our session?”
These are some of the locations in Indiana and around Muncie that are some of my favorites. I will include reasons why I love these spots and which spots are best for families, seniors, pets, newborns, maternity, couples, and children sessions.
This blog post is for those of you who have scheduled a session with Kyla Jo Photography and now you are wondering, “Where should we have our session?”
These are some of the locations in Indiana and around Muncie that are my favorites or that I have shot at before. I will include reasons why I love these spots and which spots are best for families, seniors, pets, newborns, maternity, couples, and children sessions.
Whitetail Tree Farms
Whitetail Tree Farms is perfect for any winter session, when all of the trees are dead and there is not much color, the pine trees always make a gorgeous backdrop. During the fall, there are even more places to shoot with bright yellow trees, fence lines, and a cute pathway surrounded by trees.
Minnetrista Gardens
Minnetrista requires photographers to have a yearly pass to be able to shoot on their grounds, and I have one! YAY! Minnetrista is gorgeous in the spring with bright flowers and greenery everywhere. Minnetrista is great for families, with a simplistic nature feel, there are surrounding buildings that can be used as backdrops as well.
Reservoir
The reservoir has tons of locations, but I have found one that is gorgeous in the evening just before sunset! The trees are surrounding you, the water in the background, and the road is close by for some fun dipping and dancing shots! I would suggest this location in the evening just before sunset for the best lighting. If you are a little adventurous we can jump in the reservoir and capture some playful shots.
White River Water Fall & Park
If you are wanting to stick close to downtown Muncie, but want a little nature included in your session, this is the perfect classic spot. With a path lined with green shrubbery and an old building with steps for the family. Just across the road is Whiteriver, where shooting in the evening or on an overcast day is perfect. I have shot in the sun, pouring rain, cold and hot weather here at the park and I just love all of the outcomes!
Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory
This botanical garden is everything you could ever want for a senior session. Even though it is a little bit of a drive from Muncie Indiana, it is totally worth it! It is located in Fort Wayne, and has the most beautiful lighting and backdrops. I could spend hourssss here capturing your photos! If you are interested in a session here, there is a small travel fee, but like I said it is SO WORTH IT! Check out the website and all of the different gardens they offer.
Maplewood Golf Course (Location of Studio)
Maplewood is near and dear to my heart, as my studio is located just upstairs above the pro shop! Maplewood is perfect in the fall, with colors everywhere. Currently there is a huge tree that fell last year, we were all so sad, butttttt it makes for a really fun photo prop. There is also a tall grassy area for spring and summer shoots in the back of the course, your kids will love riding in the golf carts to get there! Of you are interested in getting a mixture of studio photos and outdoor photos, this is the perfect location for you.
Ball State University Quad
Ball State is pretty year round, with the old buildings and huge doorways. I usually meet at the art museum and go from there. The stair case is huge and is perfect for that large family photo, you have been wanting for years. Just around the building is a line of pine trees, that make for a great background in your family groupings or senior photos. I am very comfortable with campus (as a BSU Alumni) and know of other spots, such as the green house, fountain, village and a few others!
Angela & Kevin // "Morning of Wedding" Photos
So Angela & Kevin surprised their family with a wedding ceremony, and I got to capture their "morning of wedding” photos! They told their family they were having a Mexican fiesta dinner, instead they had their very own wedding ceremony in their back yard at home. How sweet? The two had to include their fur babies in their photos and they were absolutely adorable!

Takeisha and Nick Wedding // October 7, 2018
Takeisha & Nick are long standing clients who I have captured during all parts of their relationship, so it was fitting to capture their special day! Their day was absolutely perfect, her unique and beautiful wedding gown, all of the little details, the fall decor, their adorable son, the games they played on the dance floor, and the love this couple shares for one another. Thank you Nick and Takeisha for allowing me to be a part of your special day!

Kayla & Courtney Wedding // October 12, 2018
I had such an amazing time with Kayla & Courtney capturing their wedding! They were both so sweet to work with and so in love with one another! Courtney started tearing up when they had their first look on the covered bridge and when she read her vowels to Kayla and it was the sweetest thing. Watching the two of them and their love for one another was such a heart warming experience and I am so glad that I got to be a part of their special day! Congratulations to Kayla and Courtney Young!

"Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses." — Ann Landers
I absolutely love first looks, Courtney started tearing up as soon as she saw Kayla for the first time, it was precious!
"I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me." —Roy Croft
The dance floor was full the entire reception!

Liz & Bryan Wedding // October 6, 2018
Liz & Bryan had about 40 people in attendance at their intimate Catholic Wedding Ceremony. They were so sweet, laid back, and so in love. The two kept meeting eyes during the ceremony and huge smiles would burst from their faces! I loved working with their family and friends and especially the two of them to capture such great memories of their special day. Congratulations to Liz and Bryan!

Kiley and Coty Wedding // 9.29.18
Oh where do I start!?! Kiley & Coty’s wedding was absolutely perfect! The couple were so sweet, so in love, and so much fun to work with all day! The family and their bridal party were so sweet and so helpful and kept the dance floor full all night! The groom’s mother decorated the ceremony arbor with floral that had looked like a professional florist’s work! The bride’s father hosted the entire event at his gorgeous home. Years ago he had acquired a bottle of Crown Royal that was from the year he was born and told everyone he wouldn’t open it until his daughter’s wedding, the entire bridal party and family enjoyed a shot or two together after his toast to the bride and groom. I am so happy that I got the chance to capture this beautiful wedding and help preserve memories from their very special day!
Oh, Kiley & Coty’s wedding was absolutely gorgeous!
The couple were so sweet to work with, the bridal party were so helpful, and the family was so nice and so much fun! The ceremony & reception were both held at the bride’s father’s home, which was absolutely gorgeous! The ceremony was held in the back yard with an arbor that the groom's mom decorated with gorgeous floral. The reception was a blast with the dance floor full the entire time! Thank you to both of you, your friends, and your family for allowing me to be apart of your special day!

I HAVE A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
Since my highschool senior year when I decided I wanted to become a photographer, I knew I wanted to open my own studio one day. In my head this was such an unrealistic DREAM that I never thought it would actually happen. I assumed that I would be 30/40 years old with kids before I would actually be able to do it, if I could even do it then! After several months of looking at places to rent or buy and nothing seemed to be "just right", I found a space that needed a lot of work but it was PERFECT! After a lot of hard work from Dean, Cory & JR... I HAVE A STUDIO SPACE and a waiting room is in the works! I am so happy with how it turned out, I got to completely start from scratch and pick out the colors, trim, flooring, furniture, and design it to fit Kyla Jo Photography's style PERFECTLY! Thank you to my family who has pushed me and encouraged me to reach for my dreams, for all of the props that they have donated and to all of my clients who have helped me get here! I am so thankful for all of it! I now have an indoor studio space for newborns, children, headshots, pets, boudoir, and anything you can imagine! Here is just a little sneak peek at what my studio looks like and some of the details such as the flooring, paint color, furniture, location, my favorite parts, and some of my props!
