Taylor & John - September 29th - Hidden Vineyard Wedding Barn

When Taylor and John booked their wedding with me, and told me their venue, I cried tears of joy.
Barn venues are so beautiful, even in the fall.
Pulling up to the venue on their wedding date, it was dark, dreary, and there was a chill in the air. I still loved everything about this wedding.

Taylor and John are the sweetest people. <3 I hope to see them again soon!

Jessica & Adam - September 8th - Valparaiso Indiana

Jessica & Adam, your wedding was a whirl wind day of so many giggles, and belly laughs. I dont think I have ever laughed at a wedding like I did at yours. Adam was goofy from the minute I met him at their engagement session a few months back. So I knew he wouldn’t disappoint. My favorite moment? When I told him no tongue during their under the veil shot, and he did. So Jess bit him. I was rolling.

Nicole & Jeremiah

Brown County weddings. Give me mover. Just do it. Go get married in Brown County around October. And then hire me. Nicole and Jeremiah's wedding was super special and totally unique. It fit their personality so well. Down to the decorations, everything (besides me) was a local business. I can't even describe how beautiful their day was. Bright beautiful clouds, changing trees, and a close knit family who made Hannah and I feel welcome. Another dream wedding out of my dream wedding book. I wish there was more I could say. I will let these images speak for themselves. <3

Megan & Niko

Megan & Niko had hired me back earlier this year for an engagement session on the one weekend Niko was home. I remember Megan telling me they weren't planning on a big wedding, just something small. When she then contacted me around April for wedding pictures, I was ecstatic. When she told me her venue was Aberdeen, I literally jumped for joy. I knew her day was going to be just perfect. They planned a Thursday wedding so when Niko was home, they could get the wedding stuff done, and enjoy the rest of Niko's leave together. I love how they incorporated their dog Bear in the photos as well. I cant even count how many times I cried when speeches were being made. With Niko being in the service, the stories people had of Megan dealing with boot camp and him being overseas just got me. <3
All in all, I'd say they had a truly amazing day surrounded by their family and friends.

Samantha & Devin + April 9th 2016

An April 9th wedding and there was snow and Ice, but just in Valparaiso. The first half hour of the drive to Indy was pretty hairy, tons of ice, and it was earrrrrrly. I don't do early morning drives with ice, especially in APRIL! I talked to Sam & Devin, literally 10 days before they said "I do". I walked into their hotel room where all the girls were getting ready and felt like I had known Samantha for years. She made me feel like I was her long lost best friend. I absolutely love that feeling. I am so happy I could be there to capture all of these special memories they had. My favorite is when Samantha HAD to be the one that did her own eyebrows. She was super serious too. It killed me.

Everything about this day was just amazing. The venue. Let me tell you. The Sanctuary on Penn has to be one of the three top venues I have ever been to. Its magical in there! I love me some old, rustic, venues and its pretty amazing.

Okay, I admit, I cry a lot! I almost always tear up at weddings, but when Samantha's dad saw her in her dress for the first time, I lost it. That first look was one of the best ones yet. I even said, MY dad better cry like that when he sees me for the first time. I know Samantha's goal was to make Devin cry at least once, sure enough the closer she got to where he was standing the more he started to well up and finally cry.

I could go on and on about how amazing this wedding was and how much I love the photos but ill stop and just let the pictures speak for me. Thank you Devin and Sam for having me and I can't wait to work with you again. <3
