Every now and then I get to take on a unique assignment.  I spent part of a day capturing the beautiful work that Eric Jensen does.  I photographed at just one home, but one that had a variety of his masterpieces in it.  All of his designs are completely custom, one of a kind.  Each little piece of tile is hand cut.  Truly incredible craftsmanship.  Enjoy seeing what I little Jensen creativity can bring to a kitchen, bathroom, or an outdoor living space.

Many thanks to Eric for creating tile work in my bathroom that while, “boring” to his standards, exceeded all of my hopes.

He’s here.  The much awaited arrive of my friends Jess and Matt’s little one!  You might remember their expecting session just a few weeks ago.  Jess spent the last 2 months of her pregnancy on best rest just waiting for Easton to make his appearance.  He totally melted my heart,  his little dimple on one side and hilarious posing.  As most newborns do, he had a bit of a breakdown mid-session but pulled it together to get some shots with mom and dad while he was mellowed out.  I think being pregnant myself makes me have a harder time narrowing down what to put on the blog, so enjoy all this newborn goodness!

Stephanie and Victor tied the knot in the place they have spent the majority of their relationship together, West Lafayette.  It all began before school even “officially” started at Purdue their freshman years.  Some are lucky enough to run into “that one person” between moving into a dorm and going to their first class.  Victor is one of the most polite gentleman types I’ve met, but yet loves his motorcycle.  I love that about this couple, they are dynamic personalities, genuine people and crazy in love.

They shared their vows during a full mass at the beautiful St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in Lafayette.  After the ceremony, we had time to stop by campus for a few relaxed photos before heading to their reception at University Plaza Hotel.  Stephanie’s fun color choices filled the room with cheer.   To get …

While I don’t typically do many extended family sessions each year, earlier in the summer I had the chance to photograph the Bonewitz and Walker family.  They each had special reasons for the shoots.  For the Walker’s their grandma was making her visit from Germany to meet her new great-grandson.  The Bonewitz clan was getting together from all parts from Chicago to Seattle.  The cousins were getting a chance to play with each other and get spoiled by grandma!

I realize these posts are super late in making it to the blog, but the morning sickness and exhaustion of my first trimester took away from my blog time.  Enjoy these families and the love they share!

Tim and I are very blessed and excited to share that we are expecting our first baby!

We will be welcoming our little bundle of love in early February.  It’s a complete miracle what’s going on inside me right now and an answer to prayer.  We couldn’t help but laugh with joy as we saw our little one moving their tiny hands and feet at us during the ultrasound.  We’ve pasted the first trimester milestone!  It wasn’t the easiest for me, feeling yucky and exhausted kept me from being as intense as normal in the office. (Good thing there’s a couch at the Gallery!) Tim’s been awesome so far, helping with some late nights at the office and cooking for my finicky stomach.

Before I started showing, here are a few pictures of Tim and I to capture a little bit of …
