Jameson Michael Bilyeu
I have known Megan since I was a little girl, she was several years older than me but it never seemed to matter. We danced together at Molly's and traveled on mission trips together, served food to the homeless, made late night Walmart trips in our pjs, made up dances, laughed uncontrollably, and gave each other silly nicknames. The fact that I got to capture her precious little boy, Jameson Michael Bilyeu makes my heart melt! I just kept telling her the entire session how absolutely perfect he is and how being a mom fits her so well. Here is a sneak peek at your perfect little, week old boy!

The personalized bags are such great quality and super adorable with the pink sparkles and custom lettering!

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Muncie raised over $5,000 at their 3rd Annual Roy C. Buley Memorial Golf Outing held at Maplewood Golf Course on June 10, 2018 with a total of 84 golfers participating. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Muncie raised the money for the Junior Golf Program with First Tee. “This event would not have been possible without the support of the Muncie community. I want to thank everyone who supported this outing in memory of Mr. Buley, and to help all of our members learn a game that has so much to teach. I’ve known for a while that this community is always happy to come together to help but it’s amazing to see them out here, early on a Sunday morning,” says Newman.

The Coffee Mug Project // Model: Jama Tighe
I was commissioned to photograph this little white blank mug. This Etsy store owner gave me no rules besides that she needed to be able to add an image digitally, which made for a fun photoshoot with Jama. I captured all of the images I needed for my commission and then went a little over board and kept shooting. We ventured into a downtown Muncie Coffee shop, The Caffeinery, bought ourselves some warm drinks and a pink frosted donut. Outside there was snow, but the inside of The Caffeinery was warm and full of locals.
