Trash the Dress – Prom Edition

Indiana Trash the Dress lake outdoor prom photographer

While throwing around ideas with Tabatha for her outdoorsy Senior Sessions it was quickly apparent she was up for something a bit different. I've been working with more and more cool clients that have been completely game to try something a bit different than my previous shoots, and I like it. From the responses to seeing their photos I'd say →

Act natural

This is what I got, two days / two shoots in a row when I mentioned "acting natural" during portraits. On second thought... I wasn't going to post the first outtake shot until I saw the same thing on the very next shoot. The very first frame of the next shoot. You guys crack me up. This is what keeps photo "work" →

Fall Shoot Scheduling

It's fall at last! Colorful leaves, football, pots of chili bubbling, crisp apples and cool nights, and... PHOTO SHOOTS! Hard to beat the sweet afternoon and evening fall light outside. Fall is an awesome time for your Senior Portrait Session, Engagement, Trash the Dress, Family Portraits or Just Because Shoot! To help streamline planning we've set up a calendar to announce dates and →


Behind the camera, behind the scenes

Whoa. A shoot like Sunday's 1940s themed Engagement Session with Caroline and Josh was the perfect way to wrap up a busy weekend. I'm digging through the 1500+ photos we shot of prep and all around the bluffs and beach at Silver Beach in Saint Joseph, Michigan. Yep, 1500 photos, and in less than 2 hours of daylight. It's easy to →


Personal: Night Light at Underground Cafe

More times that not I don't bring a camera to the Underground cafe. Usually I'm busy mixing or lighting a band set, tired out, or eating while someone else mixes or lights a set. Tonight was more than well covered as Matt & Doug from One Way Audio brought in a new audio mixer to try out this week. This →


No rain no rainbows

Also no tornado, lighting strikes or hail damage. Between stormfronts I raced up to Lake Michigan with Lauren and Andrew for a great engagement shoot on the almost deserted Weko Beach in Bridgman, Michigan. "I was hoping for some lightning in the background... but you two are pretty electric!"(yes... I seriously said that. I was rather proud of how fast I thought →


Beth and Jeff’s Engagement Session

Memorial Day seriously messed with my internal calendar. From March till November my calendar weeks start on Saturday. This week, Monday became Saturday with a morning wedding and two evening portrait shoots. For all the caffeine I drank that morning and afternoon, I never felt tired out being on the go for 14 hours straight because of one of the →


Trash the Dress

First off, serious props to Sara for all her hard work, logistics and brainstorming to put this day together. Couldn't have done it or had this much fun without you, babe. On our way up to Lake Michigan I wondered if in fact we wouldn't also be getting a bit messier than usual at a location shoot. Thunderstorms were in the →


Celebrating with Amanda and Justin

While we're out celebrating with Amanda and Justin, enjoy some of our favorites from their Engagement Session earlier this month! Form the Engagement Session there is a link to the wedding day gallery. Enjoy! Quiet moments On our way down the beach Justin saw this sand bar and he and Amanda were awesome sports and walked out into knee deep Lake Michigan →


Sunny Sunday Engagement Session

Sunday afternoon we rounded out a near perfect weekend of friends, fun and photography with Amanda and Justin at their engagement session at Weko Beach along Lake Michigan. I want to pass along a huge thanks to these two for being such great sports walking up dunes and into the not-quite-warm Lake for the photo session. I'm convinced that we'll make →


Jourdan’s Senior Session

Wednesday Jourdan and her boyfriend Mark met up with me for the first shoot of the springtime! It was nearly summer weather here in Indiana and the Shiojiri Niwa Japanese Gardens in Mishawaka, Indiana were in bloom for a perfect late afternoon Senior Session. We took a walk along the Saint Joseph River and Central Park for some great sunset photos. →
