OMG, you guys….you have no idea how much *fun* this family was to shoot. By the end of the session they had me ROLLING. They made me walk away from the session wishing I had 3 teenagers and a 5 year old at home – NOT an easy task to do! I know you guys have been dying to see these. I LOVE them!! Thanks for an amazing session!

{Coming Soon: Brooklyn} | Indiana Maternity Photographer

Life is happening so quickly around here these days, I know the blog has been quite neglected. Many posts will be coming soon, as I have a LOT to update!! Last weekend, I got to hang out with the most awesome parents-to-be. I can’t wait for their little bundle of joy to arrive. They are such an artsy, edgy couple, and there home was SO freaking cool. The newborn session is going to be ah-mazing!!! Meanwhile, these two love birds are awaiting Brooklyn’s arrival in serious style. These two may be one of the sweetest, most in love couples I’ve ever photographed. They were so natural in front of the camera, just loving one another – the images I captured are some of the sweetest to date. I can tell these are two are soon going to become an amazing, loving, wonderful family of three! I’m so excited to be documenting their journey into parenthood! :)

I am literally *bursting* with joy over these photos. My dear friend Kristi recently gave birth to her first child, and I was lucky enough to get to visit them for a morning on Karli’s 17th day of life. Mom and Dad are completely in love with her – how could they not be?? It was so good to get to see my friend again and to capture this precious time in their life. Kristi, Chad – I am SO, SO happy for you three!! Karli is a perfect angel, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to come over and take these photos. I can’t wait to watch her grow up. You two are already phenomenal parents. I love you guys!

You may recognize the little man in these first two shots from the top of my blog. He’s the little flirt with the blonde curls that is shown in the revolving photos. To my surprise, he was so grown up, lookin’ like a little man when I arrived for their photo shoot last weekend! I’ve been photographing these brothers for over a year now ( take a journey with them here, here, and, here ) and I just love them to pieces!!! One thing I’ve always noticed is the connection between these two guys. Big Bro Joe started making silly faces, and Beau just LOST it. This kid was laughing so hard I thought he was going to start crying. I have another photo of him with one of those crazy, hysterical laugh faces on – just precious!! It was after that Joey promptly told me he was “done” with photos, and I had to agree. We had a great morning, and he supplied the perfect ending to the shoot. Much love to the K Family – you guys rock!

So CUTE!!!!!

All boy. I was so excited to meet the newest addition to the K Family – pretty little Bella. You all know how I love my boxers, so this was a pure treat!

Hanging out in “Big Daddy’s” awesome car. Love the sun streaming in on this one.

I love how Joey is looking up at Mom & Dad with such a sweet little smile.

Next clue………
