We had such a fun evening capturing senior photos for Madyson Anderson, a soon-to-be graduate of the Class of 2026! Her session was full of personality and charm, starting at her family’s property where we did our best to include her beloved show pigs and pup. Madyson’s love for animals and her rural roots were the perfect backdrop for these sentimental shots. Afterward, we headed to Altherr Nature Park in Monticello just in time for golden hour. The soft evening light gave everything a warm, dreamy glow—especially in the fields and wildflowers.

The blended Marxmiller crew met us at Tippecanoe River State Park last week for a special extended family session while everyone was in town. With kids growing up, family members spread across different states, and life pulling us in so many directions, it’s such a gift when a family can all be together in one place. We love capturing these moments—laughs, hugs, and the kind of joy that only happens when you’re surrounded by your people.

Amber & Bradley got married at Gathering Place at The Old Mill in Twelve Mile, Indiana. Their simple wedding accented with sage green and khaki made this warm spring wedding feel laid back and well suited for this country venue. They both shared in special surprises like Amber’s first look with her dad, and Bradley’s tear-jerking gift from his mom as a tribute to his late father. Then Amber finally got to walk through the barn doors and down the aisle to her awaiting soon-to-be husband. Their ceremony took place at the same location as their reception so guests looked on as they sat at tables surrounding the bridal party where Amber & Bradley exchanged rings, and said “I do” before sealing the entire event with a kiss. We wrapped the night up with a fun-filled reception, sunset photos at their personal property with an old tractor and truck as props, and tons of dancing surrounded by their friends and family.

Everything about this evening with Shelby & Tucker just felt so authentically them!

With a day as beautiful as this particular Saturday, we were blessed to have had a handful of sessions back to back! I’m so glad we were able to get together with Holly and Daron at Altherr Nature Park in Monticello for these adorable pictures of their little family. I really haven’t seen Holly since when we were kids attending the same church growing up, so it was nice to reconnect and chat while obviously snapping a few amazing photos along the way.

We met the Buczkowski family at France Park in Logansport for an extended family session. The spring weather made for the perfect day and the flowering trees in the background look just beautiful. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to meet this young growing family, and we can’t wait to see how they continue to add to their group as the years go on.
