Sweet Baby

This little guy was full of smiles! He was perfect for his first photo session. I think he got a little hot and sleepy towards the end...but, it didn't matter, the magic had already happened. Enjoy this sneak peek...I'll have your gallery up soon!

Expecting Lucy


I had the pleasure of photographing this couple's wedding almost two years ago! As you can imagine, I was thrilled when they contacted me to do a maternity and newborn session. The above image is now one of my favorite maternity portraits...I can't take all the credit though...this was partially mom-to-be's idea! Enjoy.

Liv Tyler's Sister!


O.k., so, she's not really Liv Tyler's sister...but, she totally could be...wouldn't you agree?

How cute is 11 year old Katie? We are working on headshots for her since she will be auditioning for several plays with the Indianapolis Repertory Theatre in the fall.

I had such a great time with Katie, her cousin and her mom! We did the session on the grounds of the Indianapolis Museum of Art (one of my favorite spots!). I really love the vintage feel to these images.

Holiday Sessions Booking Up!


It's hard to believe, but, I am already starting to schedule sessions for holiday family portraits! The end of September and all of October are prime dates for outdoor family sessions and these dates do tend to fill up quickly. I'd like to offer these spots to my existing clients first, so, I'm letting you know in advance, that you may want to schedule your annual holiday portrait session now. I am running the above add in August's addition of Indy's Child magazine and expect to get a flood of bookings from that. So, schedule now and don't miss out. I will be offering a great line of custom holiday cards this year. Thank you for your continued support.

Another Sneak Peek


This little guy was all smiles when I first arrived. I told mom we should get started right away so we could take advantage of his good mood (those of us who have babies know how quickly it can change). As soon as I got my camera out, he became very serious and concerned...he was studying me! I would put my camera down and talk to him and then he would smile. So, for this first shot, I sat my camera on the floor, peeked up over it to chat with him and then just pushed the shutter button repeatedly. I got some really cute expressions!


I love the joy in their expressions here!


Arent' they a beautiful family?

Smash the Cake Session


Baylie turned one and we celebrated it in style with her very own "Smash the Cake" session. She didn't really "get into it" right away. Needed a little help from big brother! She was very exited once she figured out it was o.k. to get messy.




it was fun while it lasted...all good things must come to an end.


but, cleaning up was just as much fun...I loved giving my babies baths in the sink!

In case you were wondering, you too can treat your child to a "Smash the Cake" Session. For a limited time only, purchase a smash the cake mini session for $100 ($50 for the session and a $50 print credit) and the cake is included!

Email is working!

Finally, after three days of working on getting my email back up...it is fixed. I had to bite the bullet and pay a Microsoft specialist to work on it. It was very cool though, they were able to do it by "sharing my computer". So, I granted them access to view my desktop and share controls. Then they fixed everything without even being physically present. I don't feel so bad about working on it three days now since it took the pros and hour and a half to figure out what the problem was. I still don't know exactly what happend...just glad I can send messages! Thanks for your patience with me while we worked this bug out.
