Read MoreShelly and Wyatt had plans to get married this past May. Things happened… but rather than wait a full year to get married, they decided to elope at the Indiana Dunes National Park. They had a ceremony on top of a dune with their family present. It wasn’t what they planned but still beautiful and full of sweet love.
Daphne and Chris are high school sweethearts. They met through a mutual friend in home room… who would have thought that years later would wed?!
For their wedding, Daphne and Chris planned an intimate and laid-back celebration with their closest friends and family. Their ceremony was held at the gorgeous St. Benedict Church. After photos downtown, the celebrations continued at The Ivy Room. The amount of joy and laughter shared throughout this day was contagious. So incredibly thankful to have been apart of Daphne and Chris’s day. These two have such a deep and sweet love for one another, and it was such an honor to capture this highly anticipated day for them.
When I was in high school, Indiana Dunes National Park was one of those places we used to go in the summer time and I absolutely loved it. Such a beautiful and peaceful place to be. Now I have a husband who actually grew up in this area, and we’ve created many fun memories there too. Fun fact - Ari’s (our daughter) first beach day took place at the Indiana Dunes! Gosh, this place has a special piece of my heart.
When it came time to planning Shelly and Wyatt’s engagement session they knew they wanted something in nature and at golden hour. When we decided on the Indiana Dunes, I was thrilled! I learned even more so how magical and gorgeous the Indiana Dunes are at sunset.
Shelly and Wyatt are a fun, low-key couple that have been together nearly a decade. Their love for each other feels easy and natural, and I loved every minute of capturing it.
I've known Amanda + Josh since last November when I photographed their pregnancy reveal session. As I have watched their family grow, I am reminded of what a joy it is to be a lifestyle photographer. I've been able to experience and share in the excitement with my clients as they celebrate new life chapters. This sunset maternity session was nothing short of beautiful, and I am that much more excited to meet their newborn come June.
