LINDSEY + CHRIS

INDIANAPOLIS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER | INDIANA LANDMARKS

I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful couple & pair of families to spend Friday, July 13th with. Truly. They were the most thoughtful, understanding, graceful, kind, precious, happy, joyous group!! They also showed me grace and kindness beyond explanation and I will remember it forever!! When I first met Lindsey and her Mom, we sat and talked for hours, like we had been friends for years…and I instantly knew I loved them! Then I heard Lindsey and Chris’s story…and I had this special feeling, like I was getting to be a part of that story…and they have a GREAT story…and it’s really cool to be part of someone’s history, I felt soo honored! I have soo much respect for this couple and their families because they have such a wonderful, deep, strong foundation, the type I hope to give my own children…but also one where there is soo much joy, a real zest for life and fun, never taking yourself TOO seriously but with a real focus on what’s important in life. I feel like the older you get, the more you value things like that….and I think there is soo much value in really loving life, while understanding that you are living for a greater purpose. These families, this couple and this wedding reminded me of that. It was such a beautiful day, too…sweet, full of love, fun, meaningful. Lindsey & Chris…you are both precious!! Your love for one another is soo charming! I truly wish you joy forever and I was SOO honored to spend this day with you, capturing your story and adding it to your history. Much love…and heartfelt thanks for being genuinely wonderful!

MAGGIE + JEFF

INDIANAPOLIS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER | ST. JOHN'S CATHOLIC CHURCH + D'AMORE

Maggie & Jeff were the lucky couple to be married on a record breaking day, the hottest day in Indiana history for that day, it was 105 degrees and felt like it was about 120. What’s soo amazing is that they weren’t even 1% phased by it…and the only way that it even effected their wedding, is that their TOP concern was making sure everyone else was ok with it and not suffering in any way…because that is JUST how they are….soo kind, incredibly thoughtful…and as a whole, they are two of the most genuinely happy, loving, joyous people!! It was infectious to be around them, their friends and their family….you could NOT help but smile…and laugh…and have a blast!! I LOVE people like that, that genuinely immerse themselves in life, find the positive, embrace it and get the MOST out it!! It was awesome to be around them, share the joy of this wedding with them! It was a fantastic wedding, as well!! Soo well planned, beautifully modern and clean in design (also my personal favorite!), soo full of love and laughter and relationships! Maggie & Jeff…you are both just the BEST….thank you SOO MUCH for allowing me to be a part of your wedding, for being soo wonderful to work with from the very beginning, for rolling with the heat like it was no big deal and being soo flexible and awesome! I hope you enjoyed every moment of your time in Paris…and I really wish you a lifetime of soo much joy!
