I had the sweetest time with Lauren and Zach during their fall engagement session in Carmel! The colors were showing off just enough to give us that cozy autumn glow, and these two brought so much warmth, laughter, and natural chemistry.

It was so easy to see how perfectly they fit together the soft smiles, the playful in-between moments, and the way Zach looks at Lauren like she’s his whole world. We, soaked in the crisp air, golden leaves, and that dreamy evening light that makes fall sessions feel extra magical.

I love engagement sessions that feel relaxed and effortless, and this one was exactly that. Lauren & Zach, thank you for being so sweet, fun, and up for anything. I cannot wait to celebrate your wedding day with you two next fall if your engagement session was any indication, it’s going to be absolutely beautiful. 🤍

✨ Last night’s Aurora show truly one for the books!

My professional photos are finally in and this might be my favorite storm yet! Every single display is different, and somehow they always manage to take my breath away.

My love for the Aurora started when I was a kid but it wasn’t until almost three years ago, during our trip to Norway, when I saw them for the first time in the Arctic Circle that the chasing really began. The thrill of the hunt, watching the sky transform in real time, and capturing it is something I’ll never get tired of. It’s such an incredible experience every single time.

I’m blown away by how many colors and details my camera pulled from this storm shades that shifted all night long and painted the sky in ways you could never plan or predict. Truly one of those nights I’ll never forget. 💚💜

Ready for round 2 tonight! 🙏🏻

Taylor and Josh absolutely knocked their Indiana Statehouse engagement session out of the park. The two of them are such an easy, joy-filled pair, and we had so much fun wandering through the marble halls, chasing beautiful pockets of light, and soaking in all that timeless architecture.

What stood out most was how naturally they fell into their rhythm together. They brought this calm confidence that made the whole session feel relaxed and genuinely fun. The Statehouse always delivers a timeless backdrop, but these two made it feel extra classic.

I already can’t wait for their spring wedding next year. If their engagement session was any indication, their day is going to be gorgeous, heartfelt, and full of that same natural connection they share so beautifully.

Here’s to counting down the months, Taylor and Josh!

Chrissy and Noah’s fall wedding day at Hotel Carmichael was everything romantic, elegant and timeless. These two are genuinely some of the sweetest people, and their entire day reflected that same warmth and grace.

The details were stunning, the colors were rich, and every moment felt effortless. Hotel Carmichael was the perfect backdrop for their style, and watching their vision come together so beautifully was such a joy. From the quiet, emotional moments to the laughter that filled the night, it all flowed in the most natural, meaningful way.

We are so grateful we had the chance to capture their day. Chrissy and Noah, you created a wedding that was not only gorgeous, but full of heart. Congratulations to you both.

Morgan and Joel’s maternity session at Fort Harrison State Park was one of those evenings that just felt easy. The light was soft, the air was cool, and the leaves were just starting to change the perfect early fall backdrop.

We spent the evening walking through the trails, finding those little pockets of golden light, and capturing this sweet season before they welcome their newest addition. You could tell how comfortable they are together lots of laughter, natural moments, and quiet excitement for what’s ahead.

Congratulations you two! I can’t wait to meet your baby girl in January!

Lyndsay and Skylar’s fall maternity session at Newfields was absolutely gorgeous the perfect mix of cozy autumn color and joyful anticipation. Watching these two together, it’s so easy to see how much love they already have for their little one on the way.

I’m so excited for them as they prepare to welcome their sweet baby early next year! They’re going to be the most amazing parents, and I already can’t wait to see them step into this new season of life with so much warmth and grace. 🍂💛

What an amazing evening this was for Kenzie & Parker! We had such a fun time exploring Fort Harrison State Park with all the fall colors that were showing off, and these two were just the sweetest together.

And of course, their adorable puppy Rosie completely stole the show! She was the most photogenic little thing, happily trotting along, snuggling her parents, and posing like a pro for every shot.

It was one of those sessions that reminds me just how special engagement sessions are full of laughter, love, and sweet moments that tell their story perfectly. We can’t wait to celebrate with Kenzie and Parker next fall for their wedding day at the Omni!

Congratulations you two! 🎉

Jayla & Greyson’s Kennedy Estate Wedding Day in Lizton, Indiana was absolutely stunning!

There’s something extra special about a wedding day that’s been years in the making and Jayla and Greyson’s was exactly that. These two quite literally grew up together, from high school hallways to college memories, and now to forever as husband and wife.

Their fall wedding day at Kennedy Estate was the sweetest celebration surrounded by vibrant autumn colors, laughter from lifelong friends, and heartfelt moments that had everyone in tears and smiling at the same time. The way they looked at each other said it all a love that’s stood the test of time and will only keep growing stronger.

It was such a joy to capture the beginning of this next chapter for two people who are clearly meant to be.
Congratulations you two!

Pumpkin patch season is officially here, and I can’t think of a sweeter way to celebrate fall than with a cozy family session surrounded by golden light, colorful leaves, and pumpkins of every shape and size. 🍂🎃

This family couldn’t have been more perfect full of laughter, cuddles, and those genuine smiles that make my job so easy. Whether Asher was racing through the rows of pumpkins or snuggling up with mom and dad, every moment was pure fall magic.

There’s just something about this time of year the crisp air, the colors, and the way families come together that makes it one of my absolute favorites to photograph.

Downtown Indianapolis always offers the perfect mix of character and style, and Bottleworks is one of my favorite backdrops for that reason. Between the architecture, warm light, and modern textures, it’s ideal for families who want something a little more grown-up and less traditional.

This family of four brought such an easygoing energy laughing together, joking with their boys, and just letting the session unfold naturally. I love photographing families at this stage of life when the kids aren’t little anymore, but you can still see that unshakable bond in every interaction. It also serves as a reminder that no matter how old our children get it’s so important for us to continue to get in front of the camera with them!

Last week’s session with Amber and Kiel at Holliday Park was such a dream! Between the historic ruins, the soft golden light, and the way these two look at each other, it couldn’t have been a more perfect evening.

The ruins made the most romantic backdrop grand, elegant, and full of character, much like Amber and Kiel themselves. Their chemistry is effortless and their laughter contagious, making every moment feel natural and full of love.

I absolutely cannot wait for their wedding day! If their engagement session is any indication, it’s going to be nothing short of incredible.

Congratulations you two!

I’ve been photographing this sweet family since before their daughter was even born and now she’s almost 15! Cue all the feelings and a little “how did that happen so fast?!” moment 🥹

It’s truly such a blessing to be part of their story to witness life unfold through every milestone, every laugh, and every new chapter we capture together.

Eagle Creek was the perfect backdrop with its wood drift beach and cozy vibes and it couldn’t have been a more beautiful evening spent with one of my favorite families.
