I’ve been so excited to share images from this adorable family’s recent spring session!   You may remember seeing this sweet couple, Sarah and John, on the blog a little over a year ago.   They were anxiously awaiting the arrival of their first baby.  They had a perfect, beautiful baby girl named Alice Maryella.  She turned one this January, and with the early spring weather, we thought it was the perfect opportunity to capture this time in their lives.  John, Sarah, and Alice, thank you for sharing your morning with me!  You are so sweet, so kind, so fun, and such an inspiration!  And I’m so thankful to have you as friends!  Enjoy some of my favorites from your session!  Friends and family can view their entire gallery here.

I’ve been super excited to post more images from this session!  You may recall seeing their Sneak Peek on facebook a few weeks ago.  I met Julia a few years ago, and we’ve kept in touch since then.  And we finally got to connect for an amazing opportunity I had to host a student from IUPUI through their externship program.  I had the best student, Sylvia, that I could have asked for – she was eager to learn, inquisitive, friendly, and respectful.  We started the day with a Mother + Daughter Session, where Julia and Alaina hugged, laughed, snuggled, and let their inner (and outer) beauty shine for the camera.  Thank you both for such a fun session!  And thank you to Sylvia for being a fabulous student!  And now for some of my favorites!

We had an absolutely beautiful March evening to do some family photos!  Spring had just started, and what better way to jump into my favorite season than with a fun family…and their sweet boxer, Toby!  We chatted and laughed as we made our way around our location.  Time flew by, and our session ended before  I knew it.  As I packed up my car, I could feel myself smiling.  Like a really big smile.  Why?  Because I had just spent time with a wonderful family who had fun spending time together, allowing me to capture it all for them.  And for that I am so grateful.  Thank you, Darren, Paula, Mitchell, Daniel, Linda, and Toby – thank you for making me smile and sharing time with me on such a beautiful day!  Let’s take a look at some of my favorites from the day!  Friend and family can view their entire online gallery here!

Late January is usually known for snow, ice, wind, and freezing temperatures.  However, a few days before the Super Bowl, the weather man predicted unseasonably warm temps!  So when Emily Claire’s Mom called and asked to take advantage of such weather, I was so excited!  Although the sun dipped behind the clouds and the winter winds were making their way back, it didn’t phase adorable Miss Emily Claire!  She was our little ray of sunshine, and we had a fun time singing, marching, and listening to birds chirp as they flew overhead.  I can’t believe she’s 18 months old already…where does the time go?  I first met Emily Claire’s family before she was born, when Heather and Brian were anxiously awaiting her arrival.  And I’ve been so lucky to be the one to document their lives ever since!  (Take a look back here, here,  here, here, and here.)  And now for a few of my favorites from our afternoon!  Family and friends can view Emily Claire’s entire online gallery here!
