MELODY+JOHN

INDIANAPOLIS WEDDING | CHURCH OF THE NATIVITY + THE OMNI SEVERIN HOTEL

If I could describe this wedding in one word, it would be OMG!!!! Ok, that’s technically three words when NOT an acronym, but whatever, you get it, right!?! ;) OH MY GOSH!! What a crazy, awesome, uber fun, laugh until it hurts, don’t want it to end kind of BLAST Melody & John’s (MAGGARD!!) wedding was!! When I first met Melody…I instantly loved her sense of humor, how GORG she was and her sense of style…and I just had a feeling that that would sneak it’s way into their wedding day, and LUCKY FOR ME…it DID!! And then I met John…and he instantly showed me his custom made polka dot lined, red zippered (yes THAT zipper!) SUIT and I was pretty much sold. From there on out, the entire day was sheer joy and perfection…oh and an absolute BLAST!! A wonderful vendor & venue team made the day flow perfectly, look stylish and beautiful…and create one heck of a party!! It was truly great! Melody & John…you two are just plain COOL. And wonderfully kind, warm, fun, endearing, in love, rock some awesome style, have uber cool friends and family, are hysterical, rocked the posing for pictures, know how to have a blast, awesome, low key, easy going, did I mention FUN!? Thank you for being soo wonderful to work with, embracing the photography on your wedding day and being all together GREAT!! Your wedding was one that I will never forget. I wish you a lifetime of endless laughter and crazy love. :)

THE SANGAR FAMILY

INDIANAPOLIS FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Soo…it’s not a huge secret that I have a PROBLEM with massive blog posts. I know it, I need help, blah blah….but ya know what…it’s my blog and I’ll post lots of PICTURES if I want to! :) wink!! And when you have a family that’s as COMPLETELY STELLAR AND RAD as this…then, well, what’s a GIRL/PHOTOGRAPHER TO DO!?! I love the Sangar’s!!! Jamie is a great friend and fellow photographer….FANTASTIC photographer! AND….whenever I have something that I’m too scared to ask one of my clients to do, I ask Jamie and Simon and they are totally game! For example…going into the ghetto to shoot at this dirty railroad track and graffiti wall! They loved it and ROCKED the images there…as you will easily be able to see!! I adore these guys…and it’s extra sweet when Sophie runs into my office and starts screaming JUDE!!!! when she sees my screen because he’s her sweet little friend and they totally dig each other! :) You knocked it out of the PARK on this one, Jamie, Simon and Jude….thanks for being awesome!! xoxo!! have you EVER seen a child cuter or with better STYLE than this in your LIFE?? (other than SOPHIE, duh!?!)

Ok, so while we could have wrapped up the shoot right then and THERE because of how The Sangars ROCKED IT at our first stop….we continued on and had a blast around the city for the rest of the evening!! :)

And we did a 30 second updated headshot for Jamie and I think she looks UBER gorgeous…
