Ashley and Sam’s Downtown Indianapolis Engagement Session

As we pulled up outside of Ashley and Sam’s home, I felt like I was walking in to the house of someone I’d known for years. But in truth, we had never met! We had regular conversations over the phone or text, but had just never met face to face. So needless to say, I was so excited for this Indianapolis engagement session!

Ashley and Sam are an incredibly driven couple who love to make others feel special. They even had an array of snacks waiting on us when we walked in the door. How cute is that? They are also dog lovers and were just as excited as I was to include their adorable dogs, Lexie and Morty, in their engagement session.

Indianapolis is special to Ashley and Sam so it seemed only natural to include some of the most iconic Indianapolis locations in our shoot. It was one of those perfect summer evenings that you never want to end. The light seemed to go on forever and we had the city almost entirely to ourselves. It was like something out of a movie. And speaking of movie – Ashley and Sam looked every bit the classic Hollywood couple as they danced beneath the Indianapolis skyline.

They looked like they popped right out of a movie poster for a classic romantic film! Classic romance meets modern couple? Yes please!
