The Butkus Family | Indiana Lifestyle & Family Portrait Photography | Washington Park Beach
Had to keep this one secret for a while! All the grandkids got together and did photos for their grandparents’ anniversary! Though Grandma and Grandpa aren’t on Facebook, they were afraid it was too small a world and one of my “likers” would say, “Those photos look great!” and spoiler the surprise. Happy Anniversary, so...

Abby and I are old friends. We went to LaLumiere together, both from mega rural, tiny feeder schools. We bonded instantly. There’s nobody else in the world better to complain with during C-squad volleyball or skip required attendance events with to go to Olive Garden. We’ve kept up over the years through the internet, as...

The Matthews Family | Indiana Lifestyle & Family Portrait Photography | Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Lake View, Beverly Shores
As we hydroplaned home from Chicago Saturday night, still recovering from the flooding the night before, I was positive my Sunday morning session would be canceled. I couldn’t have been happier stepping outside to assess the weather. It was the biggest, bluest sky full of the most fluffy clouds, topped off with cool breeze, perfection!

I was almost able to photograph this session the other day, but sadly, the minute I walk onto the beach, lightning and thunder start up! What a rainy June we had! Luckily, we had the perfect weather for our session. Courtney and Terry are getting married on the beach next year with their destination wedding...
