Heehee...one more fun one from Sunday!

My painted baby

After our shoot Saturday afternoon Noah and I raced over to Rocky Ripple for the Rocky Ripple Art & Music Fest. We managed to get there about an hour before it ended. In that time we: had a beer (me, not him!), perused the vendors and their lovely work, bought some handmade soap, played in the sand, listened to the Born Again Floozies, chatted with friends a many and got Noah's face painted. I'd say we fit in quite a bit of fun for only an hour of play time!

Monday...at the Central Library

Monday I had the opportunity to photography Sherry and her daughter, Lindsay. They are a sassy mother/daughter duo and I had a great time with them! I really wanted to spend more of our session outside but the winds were out of control that day. We did get a few really great images outdoors in the short time before we raced back inside where it was warm! Thanks Sherry & Lindsay for spending the morning with me!

A Busy Weekend!

Busy, busy weekend! With a session Saturday, Sunday AND Monday I was hopping around non-stop! Saturday Noah and I had a session with little August and his parents. This little guy has the most mesmerizing blue eyes ever...and that's coming from the mother of a blue eyed babe! :o)







My Sunday shoot was at the beautiful Natural Valley Ranch in Brownsburg with Sheri, Brian, Bryce & Riley. Sheri suggested the location and Chuck & Marie, the owners, graciously agreed. If you've never been to Natural Valley Ranch you should check it out! The property is beautiful and they have regular family nights and other events. Below are only a few of the images from Sunday, taken at an old barn on the property. The light was beautiful! There will be more posted soon, don't worry!









And trust me, I'll be back with pics from Monday, too!

Metamora, Indiana

Other than a trail race that Scott had scheduled (and WON!), our family decided to take the holiday weekend off. We had originally planned to head to Metamora on Sunday for not only a ride on a reeeeeally old steam engine but also for the Old Time (read: bluegrass!!) Music Festival. Unfortunately, we dragged our feet a little and ultimately decided to go on Monday instead. The reason I say unfortunately is because the music festival was only Saturday and Sunday. Regardless, we had a fun hour long ride on the steam engine and got to tool around in some of the little shops before heading home. I had to take some pictures to show just how jammed packed one of the "antique" shops was!

Remember T&D? They're hitched! ;o)

Not only did I shoot their engagement session but I was lucky enough to be invited, last minute, to help cover Tonya & Dionne's wedding day! There was a lot of driving involved that day...going from Indy to Gary, then Miller's Beach on Lake Michigan, Merrilville and back to Indy, but it was completely worth it! Not only was Tonya a stunning bride but she was so relaxed and laid back that it made the day so easy. Her bridal party was fantastic and I can see why she had so many people involved! Dionne surprised her by having a BMW pick her up at the hotel to take her to the church...the look on her face was priceless and be sure there will be pics up of that soon! Until then, enjoy some of what I have completed already!
