Chris & Brandi | Chicago Engagement Session

Posted in Engagements Tags: , , , , ,

We LOVE shooting people that were either guests at or participants in a previous wedding that we’ve shot! We met Chris and Brandi at Matt and Melissa’s wedding a year and a half ago so, when Brandi contacted us about shooting her wedding, I was super-stoked! What a blast it was to hang out with Chris and Brandi in downtown Chicago for their engagement session! It’s no secret…I love Chicago! Here are a few of my faves from the day…

Loop!

Clive & Natalie | Indianapolis E-Session

Posted in Engagements Tags: , , , , , ,

Please allow me to introduce Clive and Natalie! These two were so fun to hang with! I really had to keep reminding myself to stop talking and remember that I was there to shoot! They are getting married in October! Ok, unlike the engagement session with them, I think I’ll stop jabbering and get to the pics! Here we go…

Not sure what date they’re getting married on… ;)

Condell & Casey | E-Session

Posted in Engagements Tags: , , , ,

Sometimes I meet clients at my office and I just instantly know that we’ll have such a great time working together…that said, meet Condell and Casey! When I met Casey for the first time, I just knew I was going to love these two! We shot their engagement session in Bloomington on the Indiana University campus on what I thought was, until the last few days, one of the warmest days of the year! ;) They rocked it out the whole time! Here are a few of my faves!

I ‘heart’ Bloomington!

Matt & Rachael | E-Session

Posted in Engagements Tags: , , ,

I love shooting engagement sessions…even if they’re at 8am! ;) Since Matt works for Penske Racing (you might have heard about them…they WON the Indy 500!), we had a pretty tight window to fit them in…no prob., they worked it the whole time! I was also a little extra nervous on this one…Rachael is a photographer! Even though I tend to stress a little bit more about it, I really LOVE shooting other photographers! Here are a few of my faves!

First off…my favorite of the day!00026.jpg
00018.jpg
Rachael’s ring…on her very first camera! Her dad gave it to her…how cool is that!
00036.jpg
00046.jpg
I dig how her heels are up in the air on this one! Too cute!!
00056.jpg
00066.jpg
Love it!
00076.jpg
00086.jpg
00096.jpg
Rachael’s camera! I was going to take a shot with it, but I couldn’t figure out where to put the memory card! ;)
00106.jpg
00117.jpg
Rachael’s only request!
00127.jpg
Matt is responsible for figuring out how much fuel should go into the cars…I think he nailed it this year! :)

Trevor & Erica | E-Session

Posted in Engagements Tags: , , , ,

Meet Trevor and Erica! No, these two are not professional models…although at first glance, you could easily make that mistake! :) They are, however, completely awesome behind the camera! We did their engagement session on and around Mass. Ave. in downtown Indianapolis…me likey! Here are a few of my faves from the afternoon…

Hmmm…June something! ;) 00012.jpg

And a quick shot of their Save The Date cards (bookmark style) that I designed for them! We did these shots a few months back so they could get the cards out early! I think they came out really cool!

Thanks so much, you two! See you very soon! :)
