As a midwest wedding photographer, I have been privileged to witness countless love stories unfold in front of my lens. Each couple brings their own unique energy and style to their special day, and Amelie and Michael were no exception. Their Indiana State House elopement was a celebration of love, elegance, and the beauty of simplicity.

The decision to elope at the Indiana State House was a reflection of their desire for a small, meaningful ceremony. Because of this, their day was beautifully intimate. Surrounded by the grandeur of the historic building, Amelie and Michael exchanged vows in a timeless ceremony. Their only guests were their parents, myself and their wonderful officiant, Victoria with Marry Me Indy.

One of the highlights of the day was exploring the stunning architecture of the State House for their portraits. The grand columns, intricate details, and sweeping staircases provided the perfect backdrop for their love story to unfold. Against this majestic backdrop, Amelie and Michael’s love shone brightly, illuminating every corner of the historic building.

But beyond the grandeur of the setting, it was the little moments that truly made Amelie and Michael’s elopement special. The way they held hands as they walked through the empty halls was a favorite memory for me. And the laughter they shared with their families in the elevator was something I’ll never forget.

In the end, this Indiana State House elopement was a testament to the beauty of simplicity. I feel so honored to have been apart of it.

Capturing love stories like theirs is not just about taking photos. It’s about preserving memories, capturing emotions, and telling stories that will last a lifetime.

Amelie and Michael, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day. May your love continue to grow and flourish. Zach and I are so happy for you both. Congratulations!
