Olivia {newborn}

"I know someday that'll all work out...promise you kid, I'll give more than I get...I just haven't met you yet."

I am pleased to announce Baby Olivia's Grand Debut!  Well, actually, her mom and dad did that on May 11, 2011 on her birthday so we can just call this her "Second Grand Debut."  Getting the opportunity to photograph this little princess holds a special place in my heart because she belongs to a couple of my dear friends.  I am completely honored and blessed to have been asked to capture her first days on camera.  Josh and Stephanie, you have spent months (or even longer) praying, hoping, dreaming, and waiting for this blessing to arrive into your beautiful marriage and I could not be more happy and excited for you.   Please enjoy these photos as much (and MORE) as I enjoyed taking them!

{Fadely's} family photography

|The family.  We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together.  ~Erma Bombeck|

One thing that I love about photographing this family is that they are hilarious!   Seriously, I want to be a fly on the wall at Thanksgiving dinner sometime.  :)  You may remember some of these faces from a previous session I posted last fall.   This time, I was able to spend time with the WHOLE family....sister, mom, dad, cousins, etc.   Everyone looked great and the weather cooperated beautifully.  We were able to spend some time at a park in Anderson, Indiana where I have never been before.  I am excited to have a new location to use for future sessions!   Here are a few photos from our session.   Mr. and Mrs. Fadely, thank you so much for choosing me to photograph your family!!

I know Amy from my day job in therapy.  I no longer work for the same company as her and I was completely honored that she still thought of me and contacted me to photograph her upcoming wedding!

Amy and Ryan are getting married this July in New Castle, Indiana.  They have known each other since they were teenagers and are the type of couple that make you think back to your high school "love" and wonder, "What if?"  Since their high school dating days, they have each gone their separate ways, but have always found their way back to one another (now say, "awwwww!").  I am very excited to be photographing their outdoor wedding at Memorial Park in New Castle next month.  Thank you so much for sticking out the heat and mosquitoes during your engagement session!  If you weren't impressed with my "hilarious" jokes, I know the bugs were because they could not keep their mouths off of me!  :)
