Holliday Park

Spring Mini Sessions | Holliday Park | Indianapolis Family Photographer

I was very excited to offer spring mini sessions this year.  My first batch was held at Holliday Park in Indianapolis.  My family visits this park often - the hit being the rockwalls that my boys love to climb (they call it the "rockwall park").  Holliday Park is a gem in the middle of the Meridian Hills neighborhood and it's also going through a renovation to preserve the ruins that are on-site (see this interesting read about them). They also have a Nature Center that is a great educational trip for the kids, as well as trails for hiking. 

I had two families participate in my Holliday Park mini's - mainly getting most shots around the Nature Center and it's beautiful surroundings.  The Levine Family featured sweet 20 month old Charlotte.  She was busy but so sweet.  Her dad, John, is a fellow sponsor for the magazine Trader's Point Living.  We had a great little session following miss Charlotte around and letting her explore. 

My second session of the day was super fun.  It featured the beautiful Covely sisters, Kate and Carson.  Their mom Julie is one of the awesome child watch workers at the Pike YMCA and she takes wonderful care of my boys while I work out (and de-stress).  Hope she is up for watching baby #3 in a few months!  (:  Anyway, this sisters session was so fun and I won't tell you what they were whispering in each other's ears to get each other to laugh. What happens at a photo session, stays at a photo session (well, unless it's photographed).  (: 

A HUGE thank you to the Levine's and the Covely's for participating in my spring mini's!

Molly's Senior Session | Holliday Park | Indianapolis Senior Photographer

I was so excited when Molly's mom contacted me about taking her daughter's senior pictures.  We had a short turn around but the weather forecast was perfect and senior sessions are always a nice break from family sessions with toddlers running around in every direction (what?  my subject is going to sit still and listen to me???). 

I was even more excited when I found out Molly was a runner and an Irish dancer.  I am an avid runner and always love meeting people with that same love.  No Irish dancing here but I always admire people with such talents.  She starting Irish dancing when she was four years old and her grandma signed her up for lessons.  Unfortunately she had a stress fracture at the time of our shoot so no fun dance moves for the pictures, but we did get a few with her showing off her flexibility and kicking her leg up in the air. 

Molly is a senior at Brebeuf Jesuit and although she hasn't chosen a college yet, she plans on majoring in physical therapy.  I enjoyed getting to know her and her family (her mom came for support and then her dad "just happened" to show up to walk the family dog, Cooper.  (: 

The evening light was amazing against Molly's skin and hair - we couldn't have asked for a better night for photos!  She was a wonderful model and I wish her the best of luck during her senior year and beyond.  Thanks to the Dennie family for allowing me the opportunity to hang out for a night and provide photography services for you!
