Emily Ann

Sweet moments of reverie and nostalgia were not hard to emphasis in this luscious green field where our senior shoot took place.  Emily and I met just prior to the shoot, but we were on the same page of the book long before the cover was even opened.  I've started to name the moments... sun kissed, violet, cotton candy... a harry callahan second, a carnival memory... they go on and on.  Thank you Emily, you are a beautiful young lady with a smile contagious and blessed.  The path of your next journey is waiting for you, congratulations on your graduation.

Love Thy Neighbor

Hearts of Gold.  Rachel and Jason have an undeniable happiness in just being together, and it is no coincidence their paths met as neighbors.  God had it planned just as their path is before them now... and I'm thankful, beyond words, that I came to be a part of it.  

Mary Ellen and Owen

Just a little sneak peek for a couple that I loved working with! Mary Ellen and Owen are going to have one gorgeous wedding and I am so excited to be part of it  {gorgeous subjects never hurt either}.  From the moment Mary Ellen walked in the door, I had my heart set on being her photographer  . . . and now I am pretty sure her heart is set on having this chandeleir!  I really appreciate the willingness they had in spending a cold morning outside with me, it was good practise for the always beautiful and unpredictable Novembers of Indiana. You can see more of Julie's amazing refinishing work at http://www.bellachicinteriors.com/.  

The Secret Life of a Dress

like coming to life from a story book . . . an unfinished sweetheart neck line, the drape of the undone hem, the artist and the work, the bride and her dress . . . ahhh.  I've aways longed to step a little closer to the process of a designer, especially in the details this experience carried with it.  It was like being let into the secret beginning of where pretty things come from.  The delicate, feminine nature of the creation had me lost in a world of lace and curls.  Lucky me, lucky me I kept thinking.  Thank you my friend and bride, and a special thanks to Anna, http://www.annlumred.com/  and the gorgeous work she does.  If you are also admiring the room, treat yourself to a visit... the new JW Marriott is pretty amazing!  http://www.jwindy.com/
