Rebekah and Mike were so much fun to capture! We met at one of my favorite parks in Carmel for their sunrise engagement photography session and the early morning was definitely worth it! The park was so lush and green even with the hot summer we’ve been having! It was so enjoyable watching these two make each other laugh and let loose in front of the camera. I already cannot wait to capture their wedding day!
Maddie & Graeme | A Colorful Spring Wedding at the Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion | Indianapolis Destination Wedding Photographers
Maddie and Graeme dreamed up an extra colorful spring wedding at the Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion and it came together flawlessly. Maddie is an avid gardener and watcher of Garden Answer on YouTube (just like me!) so, obviously, she was planning to deck out the venue in gorgeous seasonal blooms! All of the rain we have had brought out lush greens in the surrounding garden that complimented their stunning florals flawlessly. Maddie’s ball gown with sweetheart neckline looked absolutely fabulous on her, especially since she paired it with such classy ribbon-tied heels—that I’m still obsessing over! To top off her look, she wore a hair piece that her mother also wore in her own wedding. The couple looked classic together and were absolutely adorable in front of the camera, as always. We hope these two have enjoyed their time in St. Lucia for their honeymoon!

Justin & Francesca | A Dreamy Engagement on a Hazy Early Fall Evening | Indianapolis Destination Wedding Photographers
This engagement is an extra special one to me because it involves my cousin, Justin, and his bride-to-be, Francesca! Growing up, Justin was more like a little brother and I still see him that way today. He was a groomsman in our own wedding and now has found the love of his life! Francesca is such an awesome addition to our family and has been so fun to get to know! I’m thrilled I get to help them with their wedding plans and we will have the honor of capturing the most important parts of their big day, experiencing all of it by their sides. The evening of their engagement session was SO beautiful! We were blessed with a dreamy, hazy night that was filled with light. These two were so easy to photograph—even though they claimed they are super awkward in front of the camera. I don’t see it, do you?! It was so fun capturing just how smitten these two are for each other. I can’t wait to see all of their plans come together on their wedding day next year!
Did I mention how much these two love golf? Oh yeah, they love it! Prepare to see some awesome golf-themed details from their wedding day too!
The One Where the Groom "Forgets to Take His Zyrtec" | Early Fall Wedding at Prairie View Golf Club in Carmel, IN | Indianapolis Destination Wedding Photographers
Here’s to Mr & Mrs Natzke!
Stephanie and Ryan are absolutely adorable. No, seriously. When Ryan turned around for their first look, his face went straight into Stephanie’s shoulder as he couldn’t stop the tears from flowing. Both cried and giggled at each other for a good half hour before they were able to “get their allergies under control.” And we loved it! The morning of their wedding day may have had quite a few mishaps more than they would have preferred, but you wouldn’t have even noticed it by how these two handled it all. Stephanie designed all of the florals and oh how dreamy they turned out! The setting of their ceremony looked like a painting, blending perfectly with their romantic and elegant theme. There was so much love and joy surrounding them and we feel truly blessed to have been able to capture such a special day. Our cheeks even hurt when we left from the amount of smiling we were doing from working with them all day! We hope these two enjoy their time as newlyweds, visiting all the places in Indianapolis they haven’t had a chance to yet!

The One Where the Bride Embraces Her Inner Bravo Housewife and Wears the Glitzy Heels | Hotel Carmichael Wedding Photography in Carmel, Indiana | Indianapolis Luxury Destination Photographers
Here’s to Mr & Mrs Campbell!
Chelsea and Kyle planned an elegant wedding at The Carmichael Hotel in Carmel, Indiana. They selected simplistic details with a large emphasis on stunning white florals and touches of gold to compliment the venue’s dreamy design. As soon as I heard their plans, I said this was my kind of wedding! Seeing it all put together on the wedding day did not disappoint! Chelsea was absolutely stunning in her off the shoulder gown. The breeze loved catching her veil—and, obviously, I was here for it. If there’s one thing to know about me, it is that I am obsessed with billowing veils! She and her ladies popped some champagne before slipping into their dresses and we gabbed about Bravo’s housewives (her shoes are so Dorit!) for a bit. Kyle wore a classic black suit with a fun floral tie as an extra pop! Everyone in attendance was so thrilled to be present with them on this special day and no matter where we looked, everyone was smiling. We had so much fun working with these lovebirds and hope they have enjoyed their honeymoon in Sedona, Arizona!
