Lola: Up Close & Personal - Part II

Pin It January 2009
Indianapolis, IN

I thought I would share some recent photos of dear Lola while I'm working on some other posts which will be coming soon! Lola, thank you for being patient for so long! I know 5 minutes can seem like an eternity, especially when you're this beautiful and have a million things to do.





I think she would like this one, since it makes her seem a little taller.






Lola "requested" a photo with some dramatic sidelighting.




Lola, thanks again for working it out for the camera! ;)

Indianapolis, IN


This family shoot was the perfect way to end 2008! I had so much fun, I could have kept them out all day long! We braved the cold, windy weather and had a blast. Lindsay, Michael, and Daniel's Mom Starla flew in from Arizona, while Daniel and Amber traveled from California. They wanted some photos to document their time together. What a perfect way to have some family fun! Thank you so much for being energetic, genuine and expressive! Check out some highlights from our afternoon adventure in downtown Indianapolis.





Going up!





Matt, Lindsay, Piper, Starla & Avery - radiant!





Cute couple: Daniel & Amber





Ok, guys, please don't hate me for posting this!
Michael, Matt and Daniel really light up in front of the camera!
My instructions were to give me sassy and goofy... Voila!




Michael & his fiancee Kayleigh - congratulations to you!!!




This one's for you, Michael! Next time I'll try to get a real lion for you.




Matt & Lindsay. One of my favorites!

Everyone! Another favorite!

Matt, Lindsay, Avery, Piper, Michael, Kayleigh, Daniel, Amber and Starla, I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to capture such wonderful family moments, I won't forget it! Your bright smiles are contagious. All the best to you in 2009! I look forward to seeing you all again! Thank you to my wonderful husband Reggie for assisting me today - you're the best!

I *heart* Florida! 2008

Pin It December 2008
Southern Florida & Key West

My husband and I are so blessed to have such a loving family both near and far. We spent time with my family before Christmas and enjoyed a delicious dinner, tons of laughs, cookies and pies, oh my! Then it was time to fly off to southern Florida to visit Reggie's Mom as we do each year between Christmas and New Years. Her gift to us is a trip to Key West to visit my Uncle Mark, who helps run a thriving scooter, bicycle and electric car rental business on the 7 mile island. Of course I had to take my camera with me! There were so many fantastic photo opportunities in Florida, it was hard to put the camera down. Reggie also took some photos of his own. Here we go in no particular order. Maybe I will update the captions at some point, but for right now, please feel free to just enjoy the scenery. Sit back, relax and pretend you are there...I will be doing the same thing!




Thank you for watching!

Indianapolis, IN

Another cute family! Thank you to Russ, Kelli and Thad for spending some time with me on such a chilly night! I had lots of fun and hope that you did too!




Thad had fun decorating the tree while listening to holiday music to get in the spirit.



I love this one - mother and son.



Time for a story under the tree.



Father and son share a good book.



Thad is 16 months old and has tons of energy! He's always on the move!
I just love this candid shot!


What a sweet family! Thank you, Russ, Kelli and Thad!
Can't wait to do some outdoor photos with you guys!
Happy New Year to you!
