I knew from the day I met Paige & Kevin that I would have a blast shooting their wedding. Jerry and I both graduated from Purdue and so did Paige & Kevin (although we are older… but shhhh) and they were returning to Boilermaker country to become husband and wife. You might remember this couple from their engagement session in Chicago here .
They had areas around campus that they definitely wanted to visit for pictures and I have to say it was soooo nice to have so much time with them and their wedding party. Usually we are super crunched for time, but this group was up for just about anything. If you are from Indiana or have been to Purdue, you understand the significance of some of these locations including Harrys and the Boilermaker Special
Here are some from throughout the day….
When we first got there, I went straight to the salon to meet up with the girls.



Meanwhile, Jerry went to catch up with the guys…


Love it when the bride incorporates some fun shoes

And those of you from Purdue, we were getting ready in the Union… I cannot believe how much it has changed since we went to school there!


What a beautiful bride!

Paige’s dad is a minister and officiated part of the wedding ceremony. It was truly beautiful.




This wedding party was a blast

We REALLY had to fight for this shot. Harry’s has been around Purdue for a very long time… and it’s a bar. They weren’t going to let us in because none of us were carrying our IDs. HAHA! Here we were, with tons of camera equipment and a full bridal party on the train… and yet… they weren’t going to let us in, haha! Thankfully, they changed their minds and we were able to get behind the bar





The first dance… so in love 

Mother/Son dance… awwwwww!



Congratulations Paige & Kevin! Thank you for choosing us to be part of your beautiful day. We hope you are having a blast in Hawaii!

This weekend Jerry and I traveled out to the small town of Marshall, Illinois right over the Indiana border to capture Abby & Scott’s wedding day for them. It was a pleasure getting to know them and they welcomed us into their day with tons of small town charm
The rain stopped for all of the pictures and everything went exactly as planned. Here are just a few from their special day… enjoy your sneak peek!




Beautiful Abby 








Congratulations Abby & Scott… thank you for making us a part of your special day!!

Ever since I met Hannah, I knew their wedding was going to be something special. A country girl at heart marrying a farmer, their day was filled with love and kindness. Jerry and I talked about how kind everyone was that we met through this couple, and I still must say it again
Those of you visiting this blog entry who were a part of Hannah & Karl’s special day… THANK YOU for being so wonderful to us while we were there and making it easy to do our job
Their wedding took place in their hometown and the reception took place at the farm that Karl runs… but I am not lying when I tell you that when I walked into the reception hall that my mouth dropped open when I saw the decorations! You would have never known this place was normally filled with farming equipment!
Here we go.. Karl & his guys…


Did I mention that Karl is tall? Yes, its true. But I’m telling you that they make the perfect couple.
And some bling…


Hannah’s dress had a corset, and those things are not easy to figure out. We played … “how many bridesmaids does it take to figure out a dress?” hahaha
And look… they even have directions 

BEAUTIFUL!



One of Hannah’s bridemaids is expecting in September… isn’t her baby bump the CUTEST?! 

First kiss as husband and wife 

And off they go….
..this photo reminds me of something I would find in a shoebox of old photos at my grandmother’s house… just something about it. And it’s for that reason that I like it 




LOOOOOOOOOOVVVEEEEE!!!



Inside the reception location… I told you… stunning!

Awwwww….so sweet.

I love it when friends and family actually get up to dance! What a fun crowd 

And a couple to close out the night…


Congratulations Hannah and Karl, I’m so thankful we got to meet the two of you.
Stay tuned for their trash the dress session, coming up later this week

This is 6 day old Layton, sweet as he can be. You may remember his parents from their maternity session earlier this summer. Layton is a distant cousin of mine as well which made this session even more special for me
His daddy is a race car driver, so we had to incorporate that into his photo shoot. Enjoy your sneak peek, and welcome Layton!!

When I talked to Melissa & Ryan about their engagement session, we knew a couple of things for sure. They are getting married on New Years Day, so their engagement session was going to include warmth and sunshine. We also knew that we wanted to incorporate Ryan’s awesome car in the shoot. So here we are
Here are just a few from the morning. Enjoy your sneak peek you guys… can’t wait for your wedding on January 1st!

One of my favorites 



Another favorite!

You may remember Marissa, since she is one of my 2011 senior representatives. We took some of her rep shots back in February but we got together again last night for her regular full senior shoot. We had so much fun on the golf course as she showed off her skills. I admit that I know absolutely nothing about golf and when Marissa started throwing out terms about it I just shook my head and said “ok!” haha
It was a very steamy evening but she was an excellent sport, and I am so glad that we did the golf shots right before the sun set. Check out that sky! Enjoy your sneak peek, Marissa. You are beautiful and I hope you enjoy every moment of your last moments in high school!






Love!

Oh, Lindsey and Alex
Lindsey found me randomly awhile ago while researching photographers online, and I am so grateful that she did. I have gotten to know Lindsey fairly well over the past few months, and I feel like we were destined to be friends! We got along wonderfully from the start and as small as the world is… came to find out that her then future sister in law was actually my next door neighbor! How crazy is that? Anyway, Lindsey has now done a boudoir and engagement shoot with me before her wedding day and she has to be one of the most photogenic people I have ever met. She has a contagious smile and these gorgeous eyes that just totally capture you
When she introduced me to Alex for the first time, she warned me about how much he despises having his picture taken. Let me tell you something– this guy is wonderful, completely in love with Linds, and had us laughing non-stop the whole wedding day
I couldn’t have asked for a more amazing couple. Enjoy your sneak peek!




Awww 

Linds… stunning.. yep 


Ceremony was at the chapel on the campus of Wabash College… so pretty!


Finally… married!



Pretty girls 






Love this first dance shot 

And when Lindsey danced with her dad, it totally brought tears to my eyes….

haha too funny 


One of my personal favorites from the day/night 

Jerry’s favorite 

This reminds me of a fairy tale which I thought was appropriate 

Another favorite
You two are gorgeous. When you guys get your modeling contract, be sure to credit me haha 

Thank you so much Lindsey and Alex for choosing us to be a part of your special day. I am so happy to have met the two of you and to not only share my love of photography with you, but to have made friends. Congratulations.. have fun in Jamaica!
