Luckily we got this E-Session in right before the storms of the Midwest came through and flooded just about every park on the Eastside of Indy! Nathan and Rachael's wedding is in the late summer of 09', so we'll be seeing lots more of these 2 luv birds!
It's so much fun to see couples slowly get comfortable in front of the camera and share with me their true personalities.
It's absolutely wonderful to re-connect with old friends. Chara Shumate Lavelle went to high school with me and we both grew up going to East Side Church in good ole Anderson, IN. Obviously a lot has changed since then but friends will be friends! And Chara hasn't changed abit!!!
Her 3 kids are so cute and sooo much fun to work with! We had a blast walking through AU campus, rolling down hills together and chasing squirrels!
Yet another fabulous Park Chapel native! If you can't already tell from her images below... Emilee is quite the Diva! That said, she was so much fun to work with and we both had a blast even in the 80 mile an hour wind!!! So, we finished up in the studio to control the hair a little. She wanted some dramatic shots to finish the session off!
Ok, so a little back story here... Dawn is Grant's mom and she danced with my wife Jessica Kimm (now Cookston :) at Ball State. So anyhow, Grant is Dawn's 2 year old and he is the cutest thing in the world, so laid back and easy going. He is completely into "Cars" the movie and loves anything Steve McQueen - the checkered flag is mine!
Dawn even brought along his Racing suit inspired by the movie and we got some great images! Looks like he could be in a Disney catalogue!
What can I say - I luv meeting new people and hanging out with friends. Emotions are what fuel us through life and photography is my medium to express and capture the emotions of my life.
I look forward to what 2009 has in store!
