This family braved the cold. We were only outside for a few quick minutes before rushing into the studio for more portraits of the kids, but what we were able to accomplish so quickly makes it all worth it. This is why we love having our studio on this amazing property–we’ve got plenty of open landscape and even access to the river!

The VanSickles came to our studio before the new year. They wanted to get some family photos as well as more formal portraits of their kids. Our studio in Winamac is a perfect place for this. It is located on private property near the Tippecanoe River right outside of town. Our studio may be small but the land is large and everything is right where we need it.

Our loft studio was actually an apartment back in the day above my grandparents detached garage. It’s surrounded by acres of amazing land: apple trees, a pond, the river, pine needles, the works! Because it’s the upper portion of the garage, there are some stairs to climb but it opens up to an amazing upper deck great for spring time coffee or fall outdoor chats.

We are so grateful that families like the VanSickles have a place in our studio to take amazing family photos even when it’s cold. Indiana weather can be harsh, but memories captured in all seasons of life are well worth it.
