Chad + Melissa + BJ + Max

5/21/11 Eagle Creek Park, Indianapolis, IN

       I had the pleasure of photographing the Wenn family last weekend! Family consisting of Chad, Melissa, and their two adorable dogs, BJ, and Max. I have known Melissa since she was born. Seriously. I remember her as a squishy little pink newborn! So this session was a lot of fun, and they were a blast to shoot! You may also know Melissa from the insanely fabulous hats and blankets she crochets. If you have babies or children, you must, MUST check out her Etsy Shop The Crafty Tortoise (clicky!). Anyway, I love these two. They are so in lovey love, and the photos really show it! I love the way these turned out, and I hope you love them too! SO MUCH LOVE!!!


Love, LOVE this image!!



I LOVE the textures in this one.



Melissa! You are such a gorgeous girl! And, I'm sure you hear this a lot, but you look so MUCH like your mom!


    There are so many more that I want to share, but it would take all day, LOL! So I shared my favorites. I love you guys and I would be more than happy to shoot another session for you ANY time!

Kerzan + Harrelson Plainfield, IN

     Yesterday I had the pleasure of shooting the Harrelson and Kerzan families at Friendship Gardens in Plainfield. Auleen and Sabrina have been best friends for over 20 years, and both have young families of their own, so they wanted to schedule a session where they could have photos of themselves with the babies and their significant others. They pretty much are a big family! Jackson is the Harrelson's 19 month old, and boy does he have a great little personality and some AMAZING facial expressions! You probably remember Tony and Auleen from some of my previous work. I shot their wedding in 2009, and I very recently shot a session for their new baby, Ella Rain (beautiful name, right?!). I had SUCH a fun time shooting this session, and they were troopers! It was wet and muddy, and just all around not a pretty day. It rained all morning, and just as we got to the park, the rain stopped! Big shout out and thanks to Mother Nature! I did my best to keep them dry (I wasn't so lucky), and made sure it was a fun shoot for all of them.


Are you kidding me with this cuteness?!




His facial expressions are seriously fantastic (told you you'd see that prop chair!).



This is a perfect example of why you let kids be kids during a photo session. That is how you achieve photo GREATNESS! Love, love, LOVE!



Love this. 'Ella!! Look over here! Ellllllaaaaaa!!!!'



She is soooooo sweet!



Anytime you guys need photos, you just let me know! I loved shooting your session. And congrats to being the FIRST session featured on my blog!
