She is gorgeous.  She is kind.  She is bright, graduating early from high school.  She was simply wonderful to work with for her Senior Shoot.  We wish Monica the very best her in academic endeavors this Fall.  Enjoy!

All I can say is I hope my husband and I take pictures like this after we have been married forty-plus years!  Here is to the Hole Family being whole again even for just a weekend.

What is the saying…the shoemakers children are often shoeless?

Well…a professional photographer rarely has a chance to work on personal images.  Nate and I took these images on our trip to Hawaii nearly a year ago.  He just got around to editing them!

We were on top of the highest peak (10,000 feet above sea level) on Haleakala in Maui trying to make it appear as if we were floating through the air.  Nate succeeded much better than I with his Aladdin-like pose.  I look like a cross between a Van Halen wannabe and an outdated cheerleader.

We are so excited for all of our weddings this year.  Samantha and David are getting married in just a few short weeks and we are pumped.  They are hosting both their ceremony and reception on an estate that has been in Samantha’s family for 150 years.  The home dates back to the Civil War complete with ornate woodwork, stained glass and a parlor!  We think so highly of this couple.  They are juggling a lot right now and keeping it all in stride.  Cannot wait to see them walk down the aisle!  Enjoy!

P.S. The met at the Casba Bar…hence the images in front!

It didn’t take long after our first encounter at the aquatics center at Ball State to figure out Becky was going to be a lifelong friend, and integral part of my life.  Nate, for obvious reasons, had quite a crush on this here college roommate of my mine.  No wonder he liked to come for visits.

Anyway, we captured these images while Becky was in Indy for a quick visit.  She is deep, humorous, and undeniably beautiful as an expecting mother.  We could not be more joyous as her first child enters into this world in just a few weeks.  I know she will embrace motherhood with wonderment and a heart full of open love.
