There is something about photographing couples freshly engaged that is so sweet. Seth reached out and asked for me to photograph him proposing to Kenadee, and of course I was so excited to do so! He had envisioned proposing to Kenadee at Notre Dame. It was such a chilly and windy day, but they braved the cold and went on a walk right in front of the Administration office where I was hiding to capture the moment. Kenadee had a feeling something was off, and everything came together when Seth went down on one knee. We captured such a beautiful moment.

Abby & Moe had such a beautiful valentines session in the studio. We cut out heart shaped sticky notes in different warm tones and placed them randomly all over the wall.  I captured the live moments through gifs of Moe helping Abby up the ladder while she hung up a sticky note. The photos turned out to have such a playful vibe. I loved this session!

To start off Alyssia & Kalon’s engagement session we went for a romantic & timeless look with these downtown photos. From there, we wanted to showcase what a typical date night would be for them– going to the arcade! Alyssia and Kalon are very competitive with each other and love a good game night. We photographed them competing in basketball on one one and even having a dance off.  We played at the arcade for well over an hour, and by the end of the night I joined in on a game! This session is the best example of how to document your relationship to the fullest.

Ben & Ally’s engagement session was the definition of timeless. Even though it was the windiest day of the month, Ally & Ben made it look easy! We started shooting under a bridge and warmed up in the car as we drove downtown for their second location. I always recommend clients to start with their more casual outfit, and then end with the dressier outfit. Ally & Ben did not play around! Their second outfit was coordinated perfectly with all their layering. Their gallery is the perfect example of dressing warm but also in fashion!

Santana & Ryan’s wedding day was full of the most beautiful in-depth detail. Everything was s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g!! We started the day off with some dress & ring detail shots.  Santana wore cowboy boots we of course had to include in some photos. We photographed Santana getting her hair & makeup done and then headed to Ryan […]

This shoot took hours in the works. Hours not only shooting and editing, but hours of deciding what flowers to use and then one by one tying each flower onto fishing line. It was an entire day project. But, it was more than worth it. These will always be some of my very favorite photos. I am so proud of them with the amount of time and effort I had poured into these images. My lovely model and friend, Katie Haines, absolutely killed this session. Makeup artist and hairstylist combined, Allee Gushua, went above and beyond with this makeup look and holly wood curls. We collaborated with Simply Yours for this stunning dress. I could not be happier with this session and all the vendors involved!

This was my first ever styled shoot I had set up. I collaborated with Simply Yours Dress Wear and Allee Makeup by Allee Gushua. My models, Savannah and Marcus, were the perfect fit for this shoot. We shot in old building that is no longer in use in downtown Goshen. I had ideas going into the shoot, but had no idea that my favorite photo would be the one I had no intention of taking . There was a division between black and white on the tall walls. So, I put Savannah in her white dress against the black part of the wall, and Marcus in his black suit against the white. I will never get over that image. We took some confetti guns and shot them overhead Savannah and Marcus. They were so sweet and patient they let me re-take this shot several times to get different looks. The building was filled with the most natural light with the big beautiful windows. By the end of the shoot I had Savannah and Marcus lay in the confetti for an overhead shot. Little did we know, Marcus brought an engagement ring in his pocket to see if he would find the right moment to propose– how sweet?!! A few weeks later, he had proposed, and I am now photographing their wedding for June 2023! I am so honored to be photographing their now *real* wedding, and to have had them modeled for me. They are truly the most down to earth people.

I met Katie & Thomas through instagram. We both lived in different states, them — California, me — Indiana. But, it so happened that I was traveling to California to photograph a wedding and they were going to be traveling to Indiana to get married! It worked out perfectly for me to photograph their engagement session in California, and then photograph their wedding in Indiana. I am so honored to have photographed such important moments for them. Table Rock beach was a dream to shoot at, and I adore how their photos turned out.
