While telling me about their proposal story they said, “At one point we were wiping tears from each other’s faces.” Jonathan had asked his mother to take Sedef and her mother out for a girls day while he setup candles, flowers, and got dinner ready. When they got to his mother’s house he was waiting, ready for a surprise proposal. Sedef was frozen in shock, and Jonathan was paralyzed by nerves.

I’ve known Alex and his family since he was just a little kid. Over my summers I used to babysit him and his sister many many years ago. But now he’s all grown up and graduating high school, and I’ve honestly never felt older than I do right now. This May, Alex will proudly walk across the stage, marking the end of an incredible high school journey.

Taylor & Zachary had a chilly summer wedding on a Friday at Jasper County Fairground in Rensselaer, Indiana. Taylor started her morning by getting ready with her closest friends and family in the community building at the fairgrounds while Evan did the same in the building nearby. Similarly to most of our couples this year, they chose not to do a first look, and so the first time they saw each other was when Taylor finally walked down the aisle to meet Zachary at the end. After their ceremony, Taylor whisked away to do something surprising and cut her hair! Taylor & Zachary continued to celebrated their marriage at their reception by eating good food, cutting a cake, and having a loving first dance together.

Trevor and I are so excited to announce the birth of our second baby boy. Forrest Allen Lang was born on December 8, 2023. We were at the hospital for a routine non-stress test, which I had been doing for a few months because of my gestational diabetes. I knew we would most likely wind up staying in the hospital because I had been having consistent contractions for a few days leading up to this, so Trevor and I packed our bags just in case. As the contractions progressed, the doctor determined we couldn’t leave, and Mr. Forrest was born that evening via planned c-section.

Judith & Diego have known each other since a young age because they grew up from nearby towns in Mexico. When they were both in High School, Diego became good friends with Judith’s brother. When he was around, Diego would try to talk to Judith but she didn’t think it was anything serious. He was persistent though and started to ask her out on dates. Judith told us, “Finally I went out with him in my senior year of high school. And after like 2 years of him trying to convince me, we started dating.” And now, they’re getting married!!

Why do photographers love a good sunrise or sunset moment? There are many reasons including lighting, stylistic options, and evenness of tones. Shadows are often better during a sunrise or sunset and placement of subjects (aka you, the client) can create glowing interest with rays of sunbeams in the background. In this post we’ll break down the difference between a sunrise and sunset session and why you should care.

This year was honestly our most fun year ever. It’s crazy how much we all grow year after year, but this was the year we felt like it was less about growing and more about enjoying. We truly loved every single wedding, session, milestone, etc., that we got to be a part of. As our business continues to help families and couples capture life’s important milestones with photos and videos we are continually reminded of why we do what we do. We love that we can be a part of memorializing each of our clients’ special days, but also that we can do this together as a family too. This is our first full season with a little one (now a toddler) at our side, and while the learning curve was steap, we were constantly made aware of our reason behind doing all of this. This blog post is dedicated to all of you who helped support our little growing family in 2022 and continued to give us hope for achieving our dreams.

A morning spent getting ready with their favorite people, secretly hiding away not to ruin their special first look moment at Mill Creek Gardens in Winamac, followed by a rainy outdoor ceremony and umbrellas in the crowd, and finally finishing off the night with friends and family celebrating their first night together as husband and wife at The Knights of Columbus—this was Amber & Dalton’s special day.

celebrate one year of marriage! It’s crazy how quickly time flies—one year later and the Millers are now a party of three. Their anniversary session turned into a family session. It was so nice to actually take this session time to catch up, capture some fun photos of their new family, and laugh together as the sun set one warm evening.

We are so grateful to be able to see clients like the Dagenais Family year after year. This was our third session together, and we have literally been able to watch their children grow through these photos and video. Just like last year, we were able to get together for a warm summer session at Coffee Creek Watershed Preserve in Chesterton, Indiana.

How can two people be this gorgeous!? It’s always a pleasure taking pictures of Macie & Jordan. We got together again for their complimentary anniversary session to celebrate one year of marriage! Around this time last year, Macie was wrapping up all of the final details for their wedding and getting excited about marrying her high school sweetheart. We still remember their wedding with fond memories. It was so much fun doing this session again with them and chatting about their wedding one year later. As always, they make my job easy!
