Caitlin + Dan – Woodstock Country Club

A few months before the wedding I got a chance to talk with Caitlin’s mother on the phone. She came across another wedding I filmed at Woodstock Country Club on the internet and liked what she saw. After the phone call I was excited to meet the family and friends. The wedding was perfect. The ceremony was full of personalization and stories about Caitlin and Dan, which made it easier on my end to tell the story.

I’m glad you decided to go with a videographer, and I hope this is something you can cherish for years and years. Congrats Caitlin and Dan!

Nicole + Brett – Union Station Wedding

It was a lot of fun spending the day with Nicole and Brett. The ceremony was at Sacred Heart and the reception was at Union Station. With both of these beautiful old buildings it really couldn’t go wrong. And the band Zanna Doo was keeping the entertainment going all night. Best of luck to Nicole and Brett, I’m privileged you had me along for the ride.

Amanda + Miles – Indiana Historical Society

August 2nd was a beautiful day for a wedding in downtown Indianapolis. The wedding and reception took place at the Indiana Historical Society which made it easy to on the guests and vendors. Amanda and Miles were a blast to work with as well as their family. And it was also a pleasure working with photographer Joel Cookston. So many moments from this day stood out. I loved the words from the father of the bride as well as the blessing from the pastor. But the icing on the cake were the emotional hand written vows. Amanda and Miles, best of luck out west, may your journey be filled with joy and surprises.

Allie + Seth – Indiana Landmarks

One day I got a phone call from Allie’s mother about filming her daughters wedding. It was a pleasure talking with her and I’m glad they found me. It was a fun day with the bride and groom. Allie and Seth are an amazing couple who love the Lord. It was exciting seeing such a selfless couple on their wedding day. The ceremony and reception was at the beautiful Indiana Landmarks building. I can’t wait to see what God has in store for Allie and Seth and the people they encounter along their journey.

How did you get started in weddings?
I got started in weddings after I finished up photography school at University of Kentucky. I moved back home and started my wedding business right away.

Favorite night of the week, and why?
My favorite night of the week is Saturday night. If I have a wedding on a Saturday, that means I’m doing something that I love and really enjoy and I’m surrounded by a ton of happy people. If I don’t have a wedding on a Saturday, that means I’m spending the day with my husband and son, which is always my very favorite.

Where do you go for inspiration?
I go to two places. The first is my office that I share with Boldly Chic Events. Together Lori and I put together a space that’s creative and girly. It’s filled with smart women who are not only business owners themselves but also in the wedding industry. It’s a place I can go for a good laugh or a great idea for a styled shoot. It’s perfect. The second place I go is to my neighbors house. My neighbor Hayley writes at The Tiny Twig and she is a business woman power house. She’s stylish and creative and a complete go-to for anything I need in my personal, spiritual or professional life. I always leave her house feeling refreshed and inspired with a million new ideas and to-do adventures.

What’s your favorite part of a wedding?
My very favorite part of a wedding is when a Bride and Groom are able to enjoy themselves and spend time together.

How would you describe your style?
My style is a little trendy and a whole lot fun.

Where can we find you when you’re not working?
When I’m not working I’m with my family. Because I work most weekends I really soak up my family time and will do anything and everything that I can with any free moment that I have with them.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
Collectively, I think all of us in our office overuse the word “Chic”.

What’s always in your fridge?
Good cheese and salsa. The perfect go-to snacks.

What is your greatest extravagance?
My greatest extravagance is my son’s clothes. I can’t help myself he’s just so cute and chubby and looks perfect in really adorable clothes.

What advice would you give a couple the day before their wedding?
Have fun and relax. Seriously, don’t do anything but have the best night of your life.
