Marc Lost a Bet, Boots (The Cat) Got a Photo Session with Marc
Marc lost a bet to his girlfriend, his girlfriend Mallory came up with a great idea, she then tweeted this idea and a mutual friend tagged me, I of course said yes let’s do this, Marc and Boots were equally unhappy with the photo shoot, oh and did I mention Marc is allergic to cats!? Thanks Mallory for coming up with this amazing idea and thanks Marc for not being a sore loser.
Mariah & Kohl Wedding at Cornerstone
Mariah & Kohl are so sweet and their wedding was absolutely classy and romantic. The two of them were surrounded with love the entire day, by their bridal party and family members. Cornerstone in downtown Muncie was absolutely beautiful with it’s murals and elegant stair ways. They could not have picked a more fitting venue for the two of them. Congratulations on your marriage and your future years together.
Decker Turns 1!
Decker turns 1!
His parents are in for a lot of adventures, bruised knees, ripped pants, and bandaids raising this little boy.
He loved climbing on all of the props, standing on the rocking chair, and getting cake all over himself. He is such an adorable and sweet little boy and I loved working with him and his family to capture his 1 year photos in the studio.
Deaglan at Whitetail Tree Farms
Look at little Deaglan! He was on the move his entire session, we were all following him around Whitetail Tree Farm's and letting him lead the way! I photographed his 1 year photos 7 months ago and he has grown up so much in that short time. This adorable little outfit was his dad's when he was a toddler and they wanted to include it in photos, and I was so happy they did!
Bo Lukas Blake - First Birthday in the Studio with Cake Smash!
Bo Lukas Blake turns 1 today! 🎂🎉
Happy 1st birthday to this adorable little boy. He was all smiles yesterday in the studio. His mom and sister had him giggling and dancing for his first birthday photos and I could not stop telling him how cute he was! He had the cutest smash cake from Sea Salt and Cinnamon & a birthday milestone Sign was from Aniet illustration.
Caroline Senior Photos
Caroline was such a blast to work with, we had the most perfect weather, so many laughs, and captured the most gorgeous photos of her! She was so adventurous as she climbed through all the prickly weeds! I loved working with Caroline and capturing her senior photos. I also found some new spots here in Muncie, if you are looking to schedule your senior photos and like any of these gorgeous locations let me know!
Rayni, Kevin, & Yogi (the doggo) - Maternity
Nora Elizabeth Hannan is going to be one blessed and loved girl! Thank you so much for having me capture your maternity photos, I hope I look just half as gorgeous as you when I am pregnant!
Sydney & Hayden - Engagement Photos in a Thunder Storm
SO if you’re in muncie, you know Tuesday evening was a BAD storm. But, Sydney Norris had her hair done and we were determined to get Hayden Woodard & her engagement photos done that evening. So we headed out to the reservoir and braved the POURING RAIN and heavy winds. 😂 She said she wanted different and unique photos and I think we accomplished that! She was absolutely gorgeous even in the pouring rain, the two of them were soooo cuddly and stinking adorable. I CAN NOT WAIT TO CAPTURE THEIR WEDDING NEXT APRIL... IN FLORIDA!
Titus Needs a Loving Home
TITUS is a sweetheart who needs a good loving home! He is so gentle, loving, cuddly, playful, and well mannered! I got to spend a couple hours with him yesterday driving to and from the studio and capturing some adorable shots of him. He listened so well and took the treats so gently, he loved pouncing around playing fetch and was so careful letting me take and throw the toy again! I would take him home in a heart beat after just spending a short amount of time with him, but needs to be the only dog in his home. I promise he will fill your heart with love and affection! Please help find Titus a home, he is currently at Wagglebottoms, where they have been fostering him for a while. Anyone who adopts him, will receive a FREE online gallery with all of his portraits to download and hang all around the house!
Dan & April - Engagement
Maplewood is home to Dan & April (when it comes to golf courses), they spend their free time playing in golf leagues, vacationing at golf resorts, and even got engaged at a golf course! I am so happy that I got to capture their engagement photos at such a special location. Congratulations to the two of you on your engagement, I can not wait to capture your wedding this summer at the same special place!
Waj & Jason - Engagement at Minnetrista
Waj & Jason flew all the way from Texas to see Jason’s cousin graduate, while visiting for the weekend they had me capture their engagement photos. I have known Jason’s mom now for several years and she helped set up the engagement session. They were so sweet and even had matching shirts and superhero toys for their shoot (aw)! They met while Waj was visiting a friend in Texas, and just clicked! She plans on moving to the United States at the end of this year to stay with Jason! I am so glad that I got the opportunity to capture their sweet love story!
Caroline - 5th Birthday Shoot
Caroline had the fanciest "Breakfast at Tiffany's" themed 5th birthday shoot in downtown Muncie and she had me smiling the entire time! OH MY, I mean look at her! She was such a little model! I need more downtown Muncie 5 year old sessions!
Sorg Family: Mother's Day Minis
This is the 3rd time I have worked with the Sorg family, and I absolutely love them! They are my kind of people, I always find myself laughing and smiling throughout their entire session, behind the camera and while we are just talking after words. I am so thankful for repeat clients like them! Here is a little peak at their Mother’s Day Mini session, how cute are they?!
Kellyn, Christian, & Finn (The Doggo): Mother's Day Minis
So when I was in preschool we passed the microphone around the stage at graduation and told the audience what we wanted to be when we grew up, I said "I want to be a veterinarian when I grow up!" Then nervously passed that mic to the next kid. I later on learned that veterinarians had to put animals down when they were sick or old, so I changed that dream real quick and just decided I would own all the dogs and cats I could. Now that I am doing my dream job, with several animals of my own, I get to photograph the cutest doggies ever, and it makes my heart so happy!
Check out Finnegan, and his two sweet parents, Kellyn & Christian Reid.
I was so happy when they came strolling up with the cutest doggo Finn for a Mother's Day Mini!
Aiden & Liam in the Studio
OH MY, Where do I start? These two boys were so stinking adorable! Aiden was only 1 month old, and was the cutest 10 pound+ newborn! His gorgeous blue eyes, kept looking right into the camera, and I could not have asked for more ( I did not even mind that he was awake the entire session! ) Liam, is going to be the best big brother to Aiden, I hope to see them back in the studio as they both grow!
Mother's Day Mini with Autumn & Brantley
GUYS! Look at little Brantley and his gorgeous momma Autumn Nicole Moore!
I had been scouting locations for a couple weeks for my Mother's Day Minis, and I found this location with some great spots, I arrived for the session and was even happier about all the greenery and gorgeous white blooms that had come in on the trees, in just the past week! I am looking forward to all of my mother’s day minis this weekend, so far I have 13 scheduled and a couple pending!
Birdie in the Studio
During our session I found out that both Birdie and I have Type 1 Diabetes! She was such a good little model in the studio. Last fall I had captured some photos at Birdie's mom's home and she was running free and crazy, even at 11 years old, so we decided to do some portraits in the studio so that she was little more confined. Birdie's favorite part of her session was all the treats that mom brought her.
First Birthday Session in the Studio with Quinn
Quinn came to see me in the photo studio for a second time, she is growing up so quick! Her mommy and daddy wanted to get some photos with the birthday girl as well, we used several of my new backdrops that I have available in the photo studio as well as a few different outfits for her! She was such a great little model, I loved capturing her personality and the simplicity of the family photos, with their white and navy outfits.
Maggie - 9 Month Milestone
Maggie came in for her 9 month photos, and I fell in love with her dark hair and gorgeous eyes! She was cracking me up with all of her adorable facial expressions. I can not wait to work with her again for her 1st Birthday party and watch her dig into her cake! We even snuck a few Easter Photos into her session, she was the perfect little model!
