2012 Senior Model Arielle- Lawrence Central HS Senior Pictures

Marci — Tue, 31 May 2011 18:41:29 +0000

Meet Arielle- She is one of two Senior Models from Lawrence Central High School for this year. She is the current junior class president and is a sales associate at Delaney Shoppes a popular clothing boutique on Indys north side. She has a big personality and when I met her in person I was surprised to find she is the tiniest little peanut… I hear that is her dads nick name for her too. If you know Arielle be sure to help her out in her quest to earn loads of referrals by getting a rep card or online coupon with a terrific deal that you can only get through one of our Senior Models!

We did fun surveys with our models this year for the blog to get to know them better. Here are a few of Arielle’s. Enjoy!

Hallie came in as one of our last minute 2011 Seniors and we are so glad she did. What a beauty and a sweetheart. I told her, I think it must be an admission requirement at Roncalli High School that girls be beautiful, because all of our Roncalli clients and pretty much knock outs! We had a great day at our Studio backlot for Hallie’s session and it was just an all around great experience. We were able to shoot a bit in our brand new beach pavilion set. Sun and sand is always a favorite among our seniors!

Hallie, you look stunning and thanks again to you and your mom for choosing me to shoot your senior portraits.

50 comments here on the blog will earn Hallie and free Artists Favorite 5×7 with her order.

Marci — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 15:38:13 +0000

Alex was great to work with. Good looking, easy going and fun! Can’t ask for more than that! His mom brought some James Dean images for some inspiration and it’s always fun to see what a client really has in mind. When we can collaborate on that and come up with our version… it’s a plus.

We shot his session at our Studio Backlot and rain was coming but we proceeded but it did manage to rear it’s ugly head. It’s not always possible to go forward with sessions on rainy days but we do have allot of covered sets at the backlot and it worked out perfectly for Alex’s shoot. His mom and sister were great and helped shelter me and more importantly my camera from the elements. We actually stepped out into the open an shot his soccer shots IN the rain. As you can see it was well worth it! Thanks again for choosing me for your senior portraits! Enjoy your sneak peeks!

50 comments here on the blog will earn Alex a free Artist favorite 5×7 with his order.

Taylor Childers- Featured Senior Session- Indianapolis Photographer

Marci — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 13:33:08 +0000

Taylor was one of our 2011 Senior Models for Hamilton Southeastern High School. In fact, Taylor was our Top Model, winning the $150 gift card for bringing in the most referrals. She was a blast to work with and we did a couple of really cool and creative things at her full senior session. It was great working with Taylor and we wish her all the luck as she makes her final decisions for college and her future.

Classic beauty -Indiana maternity photographer

Marci — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 13:15:07 +0000

I just love working with our mommies to be Jill was no exception to that rule. We chatted a bit while Christy applied her makeup, enjoying the sun pouring in the windows at the studio. I’m always excited to hear when families have decided to wait till D day to find out what sex their little bundle will be! It adds so much to the excitement of delivery day. What will it be? a little prince or a princess!? So with even more anticipation than usual, we are all anxiously awaiting this little person to arrive and return for is or her first session.

They call her Charlotte- Indianapolis Photographer

Marci — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 12:47:45 +0000

My brother in law Mel, and my hubby are commonly referred to in our family as gear heads. They do love to work on some beautiful machinery and Mel has been real busy doing all kinds of customization to their newest family member Charlotte. I can keep up in most conversations around the house concerning cars and can identify my fair share of engine parts but I won’t even pretend to know all the lingo and details of the additions to Miss Charlotte. But that doesn’t keep me from being able to show of her first photo session since her reassembly. She sure does sparkle and shine! Here she is….

Safe in the arms of love -Indiana Wedding photographer

Marci — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 11:38:24 +0000

Recently one of my former bride and grooms celebrated his return from a year long tour of duty in Afghanistan. I have this image of Josh and Sarah in a gorgeous 30×40 gallery wrap hanging in my office so I think of them quite often. It is for certain one of my favorite wedding shots ever and they one of my favorite couples. We keep in touch via Facebook as we do with many of our clients

. It was a unique set of circumstance that allowed me to capture this image on their special day. With the sun at my back serving as a our light source and this intimidating storm front coming at us from the east I was able to get this once in a lifetime image of these clouds and the beautiful lightning. As this image hangs near my desk, it served as a constant and daily reminder of Josh and that I should say a little prayer for his safety while serving and his safe return home to his lovely Sarah! Thanks again for your service to our country and welcome home Josh! I know your little wifey poo is glad beyond measure to have you back home and safe in her arms!
