THE TRIPLETT FAMILY.

You’ll know this family if you’ve been with us for a while. We’ve been lucky enough to document the big moments in their lives and adding baby #2 is DEFINITELY one of those moments!

Full disclosure, these were photographed last fall and since baby Logan has made his way into the world and is just about one of the happiest babies on the planet! We in fact just photographed his 6 month session (more on that session soon!)

2020 has been a real doozy of a year, hasn’t it?

We’ve got a lot of sessions to post from the end of 2019 and the beginning of this year along with some socially distanced sessions that we’re really getting the hang of.

Starting off THIS party with this party of three, soon to be four.

Enjoy!

🙂

KAITLIN.

howdy you guys. 🙂

we’re a tad bit behind on blogging and such, COVID-19 is (as i’m sure it is with many of you, really messing with time…how it is even SEPTEMBER already?!) anyways, the show must go on. we met up with this lovely lady last summer. i’ve shared a few images of kaitlin already over on the openField photography. instagram page, which, while i’m thinking about it, you guys REALLY SHOULD GIVE US A FOLLOW over there! we post regularly and there’s lots of fun images, insta stories, updates and such, so we’d LOVE it if you all followed along!

we met kaitlin and on a sunny and warm day and were instantly smitten with her personality and had a loveliest time capturing it. and yes, her eyes are really that blue.

THE WALLIS FAMILY.

We thought that everyone could use a bit of cheering up and some happy distractions (US included!) while we’re all a bit on edge dealing with the current & crazy global situation. Luckily for you guys we have a PLETHORA of happy families and sessions to post for just such occasion. 🙂

Those of you who’ve been with us for a while will surely know these wonderful souls. We met up with them at their traditional fall family portrait spot and spent some time giggling & laughing. The three smallest members of this family are animated and each have their own distinct personalities, which add even more to the whole family dynamic…we LOVE this group!

Mirabelle and Bennett react especially well to Robbie (who’s honestly a BIG KID anyways) and he really captured some hilariously silly images of them. 🙂

So, sit back, turn off CNN or NPR, and allow yourself a small reprieve from the day. Enjoy the happy faces of the Wallis Family.

GABBY; A VALENTINES INSPIRED BRIDAL SESSION.

Happy Valentine’s Day, lovers!

We’re delighted to share with you guys a little “RED HOT” inspired bridal session that took place at BASH in Carmel, Indiana.

Our playful and sunny model, Gabby couldn’t have been more delightful, and HOW AMAZING is her hair and that RED LIP done by HMUA extraordinaire Chie Sharp?! (#dreamteam if we say so ourselves!)

The simplicity and timelessness of a blazer dress (can we all say together on the count of 3,2,1…SO STYLISH!) and those quirky pops of red, I can 100% see a bride wearing this and I for one am all for it. The aery & industrial space at BASH was the perfect spot for this shoot, the high ceilings, the banks of natural light, all mixed in with modern touches like the Edison bulb string of lights, it all worked so well together.

So, without further ado, we present to you our unconventional take on bridal portraits; we hope you enjoy…and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

🙂

COLLEEN.

Meet Colleen.

She reached out to us after returning stateside from a visit to Sri Lanka & Asia. She was inspired by her time there and wanted to collaborate on some new images for her blog. Colleen’s main mode of transportation is a pretty rocking motorcycle and she wanted some images with that too…we were happy to oblige!

She’s got a good soul this one, super kind and easygoing and Robbie and I loved getting to know her and we’re looking forward to working with her again. I love the whole feel of this session, we were able to mix our styles together for wardrobe and I love how we were able to create a bunch of different looks and find some pretty cool locations.

Here are a few of our favorites, take a peek and then head over to Colleen’s travel & lifestyle blog and make sure to follow her journeys!

Thanks so much Colleen, you rock.

P.S. She’s so damn cool that she rode HER MOTORCYCLE to this session…HER OWN MOTORCYCLE. #GRLPOWER
