What an amazing girl to work with.  Meet Michelle,,, and I cannot remember the name of her car,,, but it’s one cool car.   So since tonight is graduation,  I decided that I should hurry up and catch up on my  blogging.  Here are just a few of my faves from her shoot.

I know several schools have already held their graduation ceremonies, but tonight I’ll be attending the MHHS Class of 2011 Graduation Ceremony at Bomber Stadium.  I’m thrilled that several of our clients this year will be crossing the stage, accepting their diploma and from there…. moving on into new directions.  Thank you to each and every one of you who chose to have your senior portraits taken by me.  It means so much to me, as a photographer, to be able to give you photos that you’ll be proud of for the rest of your life.

Congratulations on the culmination of years of studying and good luck to you in the future.

Thank you to each and every one of you.  Your energy keeps me young…. at least young at heart.

Darrell and Ashley were married last Saturday at an intimate ceremony with just a few friends and family.  On Sunday, when they were heading out for the honeymoon,  I met with them to do a few portraits.  We started out with some more casual clothes and finished up with their wedding attire.

They are such a gorgeous couple and after just a few hours of being with them, I found that I was really wishing I’d been able to photograph their entire wedding.  Here are a few photos from our shoot.

Several months ago I had a girl call the studio to inquire about wedding photography, but I was booked for her date, so I sadly couldn’t shoot her big day.  Then a couple weeks ago the mother of a bride called, asking about that same date, and as luck would have it, the previous booking had to move their date because of a change in venue and I now had the date available.   Once all the information was gathered, it turned out that the bride in question was the one who had called so many months before.  I guess there truly is a perfect photographer for every client…. and luckily I was the one for Carmelle.  I’m so glad they checked back with me.

Andy and Carmelle were married at Copper John’s Resort on the White River and honestly, it was more of a party than a wedding.  Maybe it was a partymony instead of a ceremony.  Either way, I had SO much fun with them.  DJ Peace kept the entire group moving with great classic rock and there might have been a few adult beverages around.

Here are a few photos from the wedding.

Several months back I met Dom and Ashley on the White River for their engagement session and had an unbelievably cool time with them.  Actually, hanging around them you start to feel as if their coolness if rubbing off on you.  Well, recently I had the pleasure of spending a gorgeous Saturday evening with them and their friends at Scarpino’s for what seemed as much like a party as it did a wedding ceremony.   Here are a few of their engagement session photos and then we’ll get to some of the wedding favorites.

So after their engagement session I knew I was going to have a great couple to work with at the wedding.  They did not disappoint,,, at all.  From Ashley looking like a blonde goddess in her gown, to the gorgeous cake to the amazing band, Randal Shreve, (check him out on iTunes) this wedding was put together as one of the most badass weddings I’ve been part of.   Possibly the coolest thing, though, was when Dom recited vows to Stella, Ashley’s daughter in the middle of the ceremony.  That is always the most amazing thing.

Here are a few of my favorites from the wedding itself.  Thanks to Dom and Ashley for letting me be part of the event and I wish you guys the best for a lifetime of happiness.
