Affordable Indianapolis Wedding Photographer?

What's up, party people! It's 2018 and we are ALL a little more careful spending our money. I believe that there is a wedding photographer for everyone. Are you looking for a photographer that will capture your day in a laid back way but still be professional? Do big productions and teams of vendors telling you want to do all day make you feel like...

Well no worries, friend! I've been photographing weddings for the last ten years and having an absolute blast getting to be a part of my clients' day. Being a volume photographer (shooting a wedding every weekend) and shooting alone allows me to set my full day coverage prices at $1600.

I specialize in moments over posing photography, blending into the background as if I'm a long lost cousin (one you actually like...and who knows what they are doing ;)

But....how....?

I get asked this a lot. (Even by other photographers).

1) I photograph 35 weddings a year.

2) I photograph families and other sessions during the week.

3) I have a 8-10 week turn around time

4) You won't find any fancy packaging or fluff when working with me. Custom wooden USBs with my logo on them...I don't think so. All that stuff costs money. Money that I'd have to pass on to you...and I ain't about that.

Everyone should be able to have memories of one of the most important days of their lives. I have a package for just about everyone and am very flexible with payment plans. No one should have to worry about a friend not showing up or a student who might get overwhelmed when something goes haywire.

Post Wedding Bridal Sessions

"I want to know you moved and breathed in the same world as me." -- F Scott Fitsgerald

Wedding days move fast. You will want to enjoy every moment of it with the family and friends that you invited to be a part of your special day. I do my best to keep posed photos to a minimum on wedding days so that you can can actually be a part of the party.......however......getting creative and having posed photos is still totally fun!

 

Is Documentary Family Photography for Me?

"I'm not great at advice, can I interest you in a sarcastic commet?"

Do you hate standing around with a fake smile on your face while you wrestle with your toddler who is screaming instead of standing still for photos? Do you have older kids that insist on rolling their eyes every time you break out your camera and tell them to stand still? Does your spouse hide whenever you mention getting updated photos taken?

What if I told you a family session didn't have to be stressful? What if you guys could go about your lives (I promise, lazy Sundays are NOT boring if you have children or pets....more so if you have both). What if I said you didn't have to pose or even look at the camera? What if you could have a family photo with everyone in the frame, interacting with each other and capturing real memories instead of fake ones?

I specialize in seeing past the choaos of ordinary life and capturing connection, personalities and the truth of parenthood. Having a family is not easy, but I'd love to show you how rewarding it can be.
