Aliyah's Indianapolis Senior Photoshoot with stephanie nicole photography

The beautiful Aliyah..... what a fantastic young woman!  I had such a great time working with her on her senior photos last week.....Aliyah will be a senior at Pike High School in the fall and has her eyes on potentially attending Purdue....a gal after my own heart!  Gotta love a Boilermaker!  :)  Not only does Aliyah have a smile that will light up a room, but she is an incredibly talented soccer player as well....so you know we had to get at least a few images of her on the field....with a bit of creativity. 

I am excited to see what her future holds for her....whatever it is...I have no doubt that it will be awesome!

The Haven Ladies with stephanie nicole photography

The Haven Salon ladies....what can I say....these three delightful women are the absolute best...not only in their professions (hair stylists, colorists, nail specialist and more), but as fabulous gals with great hearts as well.  I had a blast working with them on their photo shoot last week for their new website and marketing material....   and I loved their "out-takes"...the candid photos in between the posed photos....they are always my favorite...just so real.... 

So - if you want to be pampered and have some fun at the same time - go visit these three ladies at their salon in Carmel....they are wonderful!!

Whitney, Mike and Leighton's first family photo shoot with stephanie nicole photography

Can I just tell you....I met the most adorable 20 day old little angel last Sunday afternoon....little miss Leighton had her first "official" photo shoot with me and she was amazing!   Her parents, Whitney and Mike were equally great...there is nothing better than seeing the love of 2 new parents for their daughter...and for each other.  Their family connection was undeniable and I loved every minute I got to spend with them.  I look forward to many more shoots with the beautiful family.....and Leighton....well....she is off to an incredible start with her modeling career.....what an absolute doll!

Congratulations Mike and Whitney....I know that Leighton has already blessed you beyond measure...

The Lawson and Ralich Families at Potter's Bridge with stephanie nicole photography

I had such a fabulous time working with 2 great families this week.....Ali and her boys and Stephanie and her girls....  Ali and Steph wanted to do a fun shoot of their kiddos as a surprise gift to their husband's on Father's Day.....I thought I was going to have to hold off on posting the images until after next Sunday...but much to my surprise (and happiness!)....Ali and Steph couldn't hold back and they both told their hubby's about the shoot.

Little man Jack (first image) really didn't want to have anything to do with getting his photo taken....but I sure do love this one of him walking away from me!    And for a bit of fun and reality....the very last image is an "out-take" from the shoot....every kid doing their own thing and their mom's smiling right at me....love it and love that this image shows what really happens during a family shoot  :)
