Mike and Stephanie

Do you believe in fate? Well, I do now! Last summer I was shopping for sparklers for my sister's wedding at State Line Fireworks when I met Stephanie. I was talking about my sister's big day and that I was also the photographer and Stephanie told me she would be getting married in 2007. I gave her my card and we met later and she booked me as her photographer. The "fateful" day was when we did the Engagement Session at Audubon Park. Mike and Stephanie fell in love with the park and asked me if they did weddings there. I referred them to the office and they booked Audubon that day for their wedding. I was very excited since I have done many portraits there but never a wedding. Fast forward to 9/29/07...a beautiful, not too warm, sunny, September day with a couple who could not be more in love! It was a wonderful day and we even saw Elvis during a photo session at Burdette Park. Who could ask for more on their special day?

Same blog, new look!

I was playing around with the settings on my blog this morning and found that I can change the colors around. I really liked the blue, but it didn't match my website at all! Now, when you leave my website and go to my blog, it is almost like you never left. (and I hope that is a GOOD thing!)

Mike and Wendy

Mike and Wendy were married at Friendship Southern Baptist Church in Evansville, IN. The church was pretty small so we took a little excursion downtown and did all of the photographs before the wedding. It was a beautiful fall day (even though it is still summer) and we were able to capture some amazing images of this happy couple! After the wedding, we headed over to West Haven Chalet for the reception and some more photos of Mike and Wendy. They even stood in some tall grass for me, but Wendy warned me that if she saw a snake I would be in TROUBLE! We managed to get through all of the photos with no snake sightings and even got some photos of Mike and Wendy with their adorable daughter, Carley.

Josh and Anna

What a wonderful couple! Josh and Anna were married outdoors at The Discovery Lodge with the reception held indoors following the ceremony. We did things a bit differently than usual - after the ceremony the newlyweds, bridal party, myself and April, my assistant, all piled in the Hummer limo and went downtown for a fun photo session. As we were heading for the park, our driver took a detour to the riverfront to take some photos. I didn't realize we were going there and when I turned around to look out the front to see where we were all I could see was the water and we were headed down a steep hill. It kinda freaked me out for a second and then one of the bridal party gals said "I can see it now...bridal party drowns in river on wedding day!" So, on my first limo ride I would have made the front page headlines! Well, needless to say, our driver got us safely to the riverfront and it just "looked" like we were heading into the river. We got some awesome shots there and then went to my favorite park downtown to finish up. When we got back to the Lodge, we had a few formals of family to finish up and then it was time to PARTY! And boy, did this group let loose! We had a wonderful time photographing your wedding, Josh and Anna, and hope you enjoy viewing the pictures as much as we enjoyed taking them.
