The Joshi Family Photoshoot with stephanie nicole photography

It was a perfect Fall day to spend some time with the beautiful Joshi family in their backyard....I had such fun getting to know this awesome family and hanging out with the boys....their facial expressions were priceless.... the last image is a sequence of them and it just makes me laugh as the younger brother is trying so hard to make his big brother smile.... love when moments like this happen!   :)

Can I just say the Ralich family is awesome....it's that simple.  They are so full of life and I just love every time I get to photograph them.  Their sweet girls are gorgeous with such amazing personalities...they make my job so much fun!

Kristen and Max's Savannah Wedding with stephanie nicole photography

Kristen and Max live in Southern FL but chose Savannah, GA as their destination for their intimate and beautiful wedding....and may I just say - it was perfect!  They invited 25 of their closes friends and family and everyone celebrated over a relaxing weekend in late September at the historic Gastonian Inn.  

The image below is my favorite of the weekend... this was just moments after seeing one another for the first time.  Please click on the video below the photo to see the full wedding story of Kristen and Max....so emotional and heartfelt...truly...one of my favorite weddings to ever photograph...

It was my pleasure to be a part of this fabulous couple's wedding weekend....it was simply amazing and I know they will have a lifetime of happiness, love and laughter together!

Griffin's downtown Carmel Senior Session with stephanie nicole photography

What can I say about Griffin....this young man has a great head on his shoulders, a fantastic outlook on life and a heart for God.  It is my hope that my own son grows up to be even a little bit like this great Carmel high school senior!  

We had such fun hanging out in the arts district of downtown Carmel...and might I say, Griffin was such a great sport about doing this shoot....let's face it, most boys hate getting their photo taken, so after a few clicks they are ready to be done  :)   His smile was infectious and I truly enjoyed getting to know him the little bit that I did.  And as I always try to do....I was able to get some images of him with his fabulous mom as well....love it!!

Congratulations on entering your senior year of high school Griffin!  You are going to do amazing things in your life - I just know it!

Family Photoshoot with Little Miss Leighton - stephanie nicole photography

Oh Miss Leighton....now this is one serious little girl....or at least, while she is with me, anyway.  :)  I had so much fun working with Mike, Whitney and Leighton on her 3 month shoot  - I love seeing how big she has gotten...it truly is amazing what a few months can do!  Leighton was so serious throughout the entire shoot....I think it was the "black box" I had in front of my face...she was trying to figure it out.  ha ha!

Can't wait for Leighton's 6 month shoot at the end of November....she has such the little personality already....it will be so fun to see how she's grown!

Emily's Westfield Senior Session with stephanie nicole photography

The fabulous Emily....what can I say?  This young lady is stunning....her eyes tell you everything!  I had such a fun time working with her on her senior photo shoot!  We explored a few new areas around downtown Westfield and an old abandoned house, but honestly, I could photograph Emily anywhere and the background would just disappear - she has a true "presence" in every image and your eyes are drawn directly to hers.   

After spending the afternoon with this witty and fun young lady, I knew she was a girl filled with integrity, smarts and a fabulous sense of humor!   I was also able to witness her friendship with her best friend, Grace.  These girls clearly knew how to crack each other up with so much as a glimpse or a few words....this friendship runs deep and I have a feeling, it always will. 

Enjoy your senior year at Westfield High School, Emily!  I can't wait to see what the future holds for you....without a doubt - it will be amazing!

Trent's Zionsville Senior Session with stephanie nicole photography

It has been a summer full of fun senior sessions for me and my shoot with Trent was no exception!  Now don't get me wrong....I have found that the young men are not nearly as excited to get their photos taken as the young ladies have been....go figure!  :)  However, I do think Trent might have had a little bit of fun....especially when he was witness to a giant cow scaring me to death!  Yes - it really did happen....I didn't see sweet (mad) "Bessie" when I stepped into her field and she let me know I was invading her privacy....it's a good thing no one was there to get my photo because I am certain I had quite the startled look on my face  :)

We did Trent's session on his family farm in Zionsville....which I just love!  Now these photos mean even more to him and his family because he spent his childhood coming to the farm to visit his grandparents.   Not only did Trent have a great "all American" look about him, I learned that he is a young man who is polite, smart and has exceptional manners....truly - I was so impressed by him on so many levels!   I was also able to get a few photos of Trent and his brother Cole...and while we were doing the more "posed" photos...in ran the family dog and then the "magic" of real life happened....  We finished up the shoot with an impromptu family photo since everyone was there....what a wonderful family...I truly am so lucky to have such fabulous clients!

Enjoy your senior year at University High School Trent....I have no doubt in my mind that you will accomplish great things in your life!

You know I had to get a photo of the infamous cow!!!
