Kate and Conner’s wedding was full of so much beauty and love. It was so special to capture their adoration for each other and the joy they shared with their friends and family.

I think the first time I photographed Kate and her sisters she was 8 years old- just as sweet and gorgeous as she is now with the most beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair. She is elegant and classy and her happiness is contagious- especially with her family and Conner. Everything about their wedding day was so special and full of joyful feelings.

Anna and David had a gorgeous wedding at a beautiful countryside barn near Depauw University where they met in college. I have really enjoyed getting to know Anna and David as friends and photograph them over the past few years. The genuine love and happiness they have with each other is evident to everyone around them. Surrounded by the best friends and family, their wedding day was absolutely perfect.

This wedding was so special- not only because Rachel and Jeff are two of the most wonderful people with hearts of gold- but also because this was the third Blakesley sister's wedding I photographed in the past few years. With each wedding, I am blown away by the genuine love and kindness this family shares with everyone around them. I loved every single moment and memory I have photographed for this family and am excited to capture so much more of their journey in the years to come.

After photographing her sister's wedding two years ago, I could not wait to photograph Maria and Dylan's wedding this fall. The Kouri family is just one of the kindest and most genuine and Maria is no exception. Maria looked absolutely stunning and Dylan shared her warm, loving smile in every moment throughout the day. I feel so lucky to have photographed this incredible family over the years.

Everything about Abbey Mathis and Phil's wedding was incredibly beautiful and filled with so much laughter. I loved capturing the relationship between Abbey, Phil and their wonderful families. Gorgeous flowers by Heaven on Earth Event Design Studio and Kelly Mehl, mother of the bride, has an amazing talent of making every detail perfect.
