j & d: engaged.

It was probably love at first sight. On my part. I sat down to meet with these two and I was immediately drawn in by two sets of baby blues. Two incredibly warm smiles, attached to two incredibly good looking men. The fact that they were more tan than my poor white self had even seen the sun, may have crossed my mind as I sat listening to their story and laughing at their jokes! That's when I noticed the dimples. Oh the dimples. And I was hooked. It was love at first sight and I couldn't wait to begin our photography process and get to know these two even more!

We were lucky enough to have two entirely different days and locations for two of the most fantastic engagement sessions I've ever had. I probably nearly laughed myself into a near coma as I tried to catch my breath to even keep up with these two! It doesn't take much to get me laughing anyways as many of you know, but these two kept me in stitches! I'm thrilled with so many of our pictures and you both made my job so easy with your insane good looks!

And so while editing and picking through these many photos, it's incredibly clear to me that I likely wasn't the only one who fell for that old adage of love at first sight. You two are just adorable together. You made my heart melt for crying out loud! It's probably the dimples. Might even be the blue eyes. But I've got a feeling that the two of you may have fallen in love at first sight too. Really now. It's just my over the top personality that drew you in right?! HA! Kidding only kidding! But truly, I'm thankful to have met you both and I'm excited to photograph the wedding! Keep falling in love, at first sight even, every day. Thanks for two great sessions! Enjoy your photos!

I recently had the pleasure of photographing this new Hilton Garden Inn in Plainfield, Indiana. They have a beautiful ballroom perfect for weddings and receptions, along with a fantastic outdoor patio space for cocktail hour. The lobby is spacious with a comfy fireplace and several seating areas to keep your guests happy and entertained. The two room suites are generously sized with king or queen beds, a wet bar and a whirlpool tub. Even the standard guest rooms are comfy and complete with all your modern amenities. This would absolutely be the perfect place to house your wedding and reception, all while keeping your out of town guests happy with the small town charm of this luxury hotel.

And if you happen to be entertaining the idea of having your wedding or reception at the hotel, please be sure and contact Heather with the events coordinating, and tell her we sent you! She is one of the sweetest people you will ever have working to ensure the details of your perfect day far exceed your expectations!

For our photo shoot, we were lucky enough to bring on some of the top vendors in the Indianapolis area. With many thousand special thank yous to one of my best friends Krista, with Kathy's Kloset for doing amazing and gorgeous flowers and center pieces. Truly eye candy for my camera and your work is always stunning! I can't ever say enough wonderful things about Kathy's Kloset! Also, the perfectly piped cake was provided by a local cakery, close to my home, Sugar Mamas . Although I didn't get a taste of this particular cake, I have first hand experience with Sugar Mamas cakes, and I can tell you, they taste every bit as good as they look and smell! Another local vendor in the transportation business, A Class Act Limo, provided the white and green hummers for our photo shoot.

Last but not least, thanks to Josh and Tara for pulling out the wedding dress, getting all dolled up for a few photos with the Hilton. It was great meeting you both! You looked so pretty Tara and Josh was handsome in his suite. Thanks for playing along with us! Heather, thanks for pulling me in on your adventure! I love these photos and I hope you'll be able to properly show off some of your decor and hotel now! Enjoy your photos!
