2024 Trend Alert: Parking Garage Family Photo Sessions – Carmel Midtown Plaza

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful family for several years now, and they’ve become one of my most loyal clients. We’ve explored all my go-to shooting locations, so this year, we decided it was time to venture into uncharted territory. We had an extra challenge to consider – their oldest son needed a location that he could reach quickly after work.

Cozy Autumn Maternity Photography in Indianapolis

Indiana’s fall is a stunning spectacle. This location – Central Park in Carmel, IN is one of my favorites for the season. The trees paint the landscape with red, orange, and yellow hues, creating a picturesque scene. Despite the crisp chill in the air these two embraced the cold without much fuss. The day may have been cool, but their warmth of connection and anticipation transformed the chilly atmosphere into a cozy celebration, beautifully complemented by the enchanting fall surroundings.

I am so glad that I was able to spend time with this beautiful family of four! There are so many great places to take photos but, shooting at that weeping williow at Coxhall Gardens NEVER gets old. It’s my favorite light all over town. These two kiddos were great! Big sis had lots of […]
