Alex & Amy - Fort Wayne, IN

A classic young love romance story based in the midwest. Alex and Amy were only teenagers when they fell in love. At 16 years old, Alex walked up to Amy’s house and knocked on her front door to take her on their first date. He met Amy, her parents, and her grandparents all at the same time! After their first date out to the movies, the rest was history. Out of the 8 years that these two have dated, I find it fascinating that 6 out of 8 of those years they spent living a plane ride away from each other, following their own dreams, while still being committed to each other. Evidently all of it was worth it because it let them here - to their wedding day.

What an honor it was for me to capture this special day in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I adore their friends and families so much and had a blast capturing all of the cute couples, candid laughs, and sweet parent-child moments throughout the day. Alex and Amy wed at Good Shepherd United Methodist church and celebrated afterwards at the Sycamore Hills Golf Club. Greg Getty from The Urban Petal, a floral mastermind, filled the room with elegant floral pieces and strung stunning greenery from the chandeliers to create a real life fairytale. It was truly a beautiful and joyous day.

Alex and Amy exude an infectious type of joy together, and their smiles both light up a room. They are just as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside and together, they are a match made in heaven.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Hammond!

Scott & Haley - Indianapolis, IN

Haley and Scotty wed on the most beautiful fall day in Indianapolis, Indiana.

They began the morning by each getting ready in family homes within walking distance of their catholic church. Haley in her childhood home, Scotty in his. Just to give you a little insight into this couple’s sweet relationship, Scotty had the most gorgeous bouquet of flowers delivered to his bride while she was getting ready with her girls. It was so thoughtful.

Scotty walked the same “walk” to his wedding day with his groomsmen as he walked as a child every Sunday morning to mass. The couple held hands as they read sweet letters to each other before the ceremony.

I believe they broke the wedding record of amount of flower girls and ring bearers. The whole day was a true family affair! After the mass, their large (and in charge) bridal party hopped onto the party bus and everyone clinked White Claws and got down to 90s jams. This was only a taste into how the rest of the evening would go down…

The Millers entered their party complete with Millers Lites in hand and sunglasses on as they walked into the sea of waving napkins and hollering. After toasts and first dances, Rod Tuffcurls & The Benchpress band really got the party going and everyone up and dancing the rest of the evening.

It was a night to remember.

Haley and Scotty, thank you for choosing me to completely capture the most marvelous day! It’s been a pleasure to get to know you, your families, and friends over the course of the year. I adore you two and am excited to see where the next chapter of your lives, as husband and wife, takes you! Here’s to the Millers.

Ty & Shelby - Fort Wayne, IN

Shelby and Ty got married on a gorgeous fall day in Warsaw, Indiana. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, they exchanged rings, said vows, and sealed their new union with a kiss. I love how Christ-centered and faith focused Ty and Shelby’s entire relationship is. Every detail of their day, word spoken, and stories shared were all focused around God’s love, grace, and glory. Shelby and Ty’s dedication and devotion to each other is so beautiful, and the way they look at each other with such gratitude and respect melts my heart.
