Happy Thanksgiving!

Pin It Wishing a Happy Thanksgiving to you all! May you enjoy the day with family, friends, and loved ones. My husband and I will be spending the day with my parents and Grandma. We'll play Horse Collar, Uno, and Reggie will probably win every hand!

Many, many thanks to all my family, friends, and clients for making me extra thankful on this day. Because of your support and encouragement, I have been following my dreams and enjoying the ride. I can't wait to see what's next. Thank you so much!

And because blog posts are always better with photos, I'll share some from our day trip to Brown County several weeks ago. The weather was fantastically sunny and warm, yet with a crispness that only fall can offer. We tasted various wines at Oliver Winery, and wandered around their beautifully kept grounds to take it all in.



As we walked around, taking fun photos of each other, a cheery voice behind us asked if she could take one of the both of us. "Yes, that would be awesome!" I exclaimed, or something to that effect. We haven't had any photos of us together, really, since our wedding. So, thank you, kind stranger, for this thoughtful act. I love it!



Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Family: Chris + Kim + Evelyn

Pin It
Please give a warm welcome to Chris, Kim, and Evelyn! I was so excited to meet with them on a cool, autumn day. Despite some wind and rain a few days prior to their session, there were still beautiful fall leaves on the trees. We spent some time wandering around Stonycreek Farm and later in downtown Noblesville for some portraits of Evie. After all, turning 3 is a very big deal! I have said this before, but I love my job! Meeting such nice families, just like this one, makes every moment worthwhile. Thank you so much for sharing your afternoon with me! Now on to the photos!

The oh-so-adorable Evie!



Kim, Evelyn, and Chris



We discussed many things during our session, one of them being cheese. Right, Evie? ;)




This trio enjoys the outdoors together, they love spending time outside as a family.




And Miss Evelyn is not your typicial girly-girl...although, we may say differently in a minute...
she loves leaves and sticks and the great outdoors. And several Disney characters too.







Curiousity...not just for cats!
Did we ever find out what was inside? It remains a mystery.



Who doesn't love a little game of Peek-a-Boo? It's a classic!



I absolutely love family silhouettes, one of my favorites!




Evie, you are such a sweetheart!





Mother and Daughter, so precious!







Frolicking in Fall...aren't the leaves amazing?



A few days later, we met up for some portraits of Evie.
She had just turned 3 back in August.
Happy Belated Birthday, Evie!



Another favorite, I just love her expression.
Oh la la! Tres mignonne!







Evie befriended this little lady bug...how cute!




I love details, and this is another favorite of mine.







More favorites! Evie, remember how I kept telling you that you're adorable?
This is exactly why!




Sunflowers can be a nice distraction.



A little ray of sunshine on such a cloudy day!



Chris, Kim, and Evie, it was so fun working with you! I loved meeting you, and
capturing this fun family time. Can't wait for you to see the rest of your images!
