Johnny is ONE | Cake Smash | Indianapolis Children's Photographer

in

I first met the Moore family when baby John was 11 days old.  I had the honor of shooting his newborn session in their home.  One year later they came to my studio for some updated family pics and a cake smash.  Mom is a baker (like a real baker people - follow her on Instagram @moorepleasebaking) and she made the perfect little smash cake for her little man.  John was perfect - cute, smiley, and oh so polite with his cake.  Mom and Dad had to smear some frosting on him to give the cake smash effect.  Frosting or not, his session was adorable.  Happy birthday buddy!

Little Man | Sebastian | Zionsville Newborn Photographer

in

Love love loved my session with the Piropato's and their new little guy, Sebastian.  He was a big guy (over 9 lbs at birth) but he was so squishy and sleepy for our session and it just flowed perfectly.  He was a dream.  It's not often I can execute all of the setups and poses I have planned but I was able to get through everything I had in mind for his session.  He wore it all so well - the neutrals, the greys and especially that green tucked-in pose.....so so so cute!  And mom and dad - gorgeous and super sweet as well.  Loved getting to know these high school sweethearts.  (:

Baby Reagan | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

in

I always like to get to know my clients before our session, especially my newborn clients.  But it's not very often (or EVER) that I get to see a video blog of my client's lives on YouTube before we meet.  Gabrielle and Chad starting vlogging their lives over five years ago and are now YouTube stars with a following of 300,000 subscribers.  Check them out at GabeBabeTV on YouTube.  Anyway, in doing my research and watching their videos I was especially interested in their nursery reveal video.  Gabrielle had a distinct vision for the nursery and it features a beautiful wall with big pink flower prints with a black background.  It's gorgeous and it really was my inspiration when designing the session. 

Their daughter Reagan was born on January 12th.  She was welcomed by the cutest 5 year old brother, Chad Jr.  You can see below the amazing photos he took with his new sister - honestly the most smooth sibling photos I've ever taken.  He is going to be the best big brother. 

So congrats to the Rader Family and a huge thanks for choosing me as your photographer.  See the video they posted of their newborn session here (my YouTube debut)!

Beautiful Mess | The Fortin Family | Indianapolis Family Photographer

in ,

Sometimes life is chaotic. Sometimes life is messy. Sometimes it's absolutely crazy.  When you have three kids, turn that "sometimes" into always.  I had a lot of sessions this fall - alot of fantastic ones.  Great families, beautiful light, amazing color.....but this one really speaks to me.  This is why I LOVE being a photographer.  This session depicts the emotion and the authenticity I want every session to portray.  Now every session doesn't involve three kids under the age of five...but you know what I mean. 

Dan and Lauren would admit this session was crazy.  I usually hate to admit it to parents, but it was.  There were tears,  there were escape attempts, and there was bribery.  But....there were hugs, laughs, kisses, smiles, and real life captured.  I commend Dan and Lauren's patience because they just went with it and it was perfection.

The chaos is beautiful, the messiness is beautiful, the craziness is beautiful.  And that lame saying "it won't be like this forever" is really true.  I hope Lauren and Dan treasure these photos forever because this is life.  This is love.  This is their beautiful mess (straight from Mom's mouth):
