For engagement, branding, and family sessions I’m often asked where the best spots around Indianapolis are for pictures so I wanted to share a few of my recommendations with you!

Since we specialize in weddings, weekends are reserved solely for weddings! I shoot sessions Monday-Thursday at sunrise or sunset so we can get the best possible lighting. You can have as many outfits as you’d like but I typically recommend two total: one causal and one fancy. Check out recommendations for your session attire here!

I’ll be sure to keep this up to date as I discover more locations around Indianapolis & surrounding areas!

Location Recommendations:

–Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA Newsfields) There is a $50 fee but it is 100% worth it!! This is hands down my favorite location for sessions! Check out this example

–Holcomb Gardens (tucked away on Butler University’s campus)- Some examples: Marisa & David, Steph & Jesse

–Holliday Park (here’s some examples!)

–Daubenspeck Community Nature Park

–Liberty Park in Westfield

–Jill Perelman Pavilion (this is where we had our first maternity session)

–Monument Circle downtown

–The Canal area downtown

–Eagle Creek Park– Here’s some examples

–Indiana University Arch (in Bloomington, IN)

–100 Acre Woods (near IMA)- Examples: Ashley & Corey, Carrie & Andrew

–Lockerbie Square (near Mass Ave downtown)

–Broad Ripple– tons of cute places around BR

–Art Center in Broad Ripple

–Coxhall Gardens (Carmel)- Example: Gabe & Katie
