This weekend! (Warsaw, IN Photographer)

Busy weekend for Double K! Right now, Sam and I are participating in an online wedding photography workshop, thanks to CreativeLive and Zach & Jody Gray! We've learned a lot and are planning on watching this workshop again and again to help us add some creative lighting to our photos.



We're also getting ready to rock the Warsaw Premier Bridal Expo on Sunday! If you are a bride in the Kosciusko County, this event is NOT TO BE MISSED! Even if you have all your vendors lined up- free food, a runway show, cupcakes, what's not to love?! Sam will be running around with his camera, so be sure to say hi if you see him. Also be sure to stop by our booth, as I'll be handing out a special gift to all brides!


We really hope to see you there! ~Naomi

Johannah & Anthony- Engaged! (Warsaw, IN Engagement Photographer)

Johannah and Anthony are seriously one of the cutest couples we've had in front of our cameras. Even their shoes are adorable! (You'll see!) We met in a neat little park, tucked away in Mentone, Indiana. We brought cupcakes- they brought the heat!

Love is...

Bigger than us.

What you are looking at is a collage of photos. Photos of my adoption journal, and a quilt my mother made. I haven't talked much on this blog about adoption. My husband and I keep a personal blog for that- which you are welcomed to read, if you wish.

Megan & Scott- 10-15-11 Wedding (Fort Wayne, IN Wedding Photographers)

You've probably already seen Megan & Scott on our blog- We did their Sneak Peek right after the wedding, of course, and they also had a First Look I blogged. Megan and Scott both come from wonderful families, and we know this because we spent the entire day with them. Even through some tough spots everyone pitched in and made the day amazing.

We were also joined for the day by my friend Mary Bodkin, of Mary Bodkin Photography. Mary helped with 2nd shooting duties, and also provided some helpful feedback.

Grab some popcorn because this post is a whopper! (But totally worth it!)

First of all, I have to send out a little plug for Koscer. It's quite simple to use, and if you are in search of something it really is a great way to find anything in Kosciusko County. If you or someone you know runs a local business, be sure to send them to the website. It's free to sign up & easy! If you work with a volunteer group Koscer also has event listings you can use for free.

Megan & Mark- 10-8-2011 Wedding! (Columbia City, IN Wedding Photographers)

Megan and Mark are one of those couples that are ridiculously meant for each other! No question- this match was made in heaven! We had a ton of fun doing their engagement photos in the rain, back in May. We were very excited to shoot their ceremony in Merriam, and their reception in Columbia City. You may remember their Sneak Peek, but if not, just click the link!

We started out the night before with a small disaster, as our car broke down on the way to their rehearsal. I ended up walking about a mile to get to the church, and we had to borrow a car to make the wedding, but I was determined to get there at any cost!

This was the first wedding that Samuel got to shoot entirely with me, and I have to share a funny story first before we get to photos. Skip ahead if you don't care, but you'll be missing out! Men who shoot weddings need to be more in touch with their feminine side, and I like to remind & tease Sam about that. This was the first time he had gotten to help me shoot the bride's details and as I came out with Megan's wedding dress he gasped, and said "It's so beautiful!!" and I, of course, said "Be a MAN!" Ha ha! I actually love that he could appreciate the uniqueness and delicacy of a wedding dress, and it is part of why he is so good at what he does.
