New blog coming!!!!!

Hey all just wanted to let you know that I won't be updating this site anymore because I am getting a NEW BLOG!!!!!!!! (I just screamed this so you should read it like that.) :)
So excited! It will be a professional blog and show off my pictures in a much better way.
I am thankful that my little hobby is now a business because of so many encouraging people.
Oh and... it will no longer be "bellies to babies". I have officially dropped that name and will just be "a.tonagel photography"
Which means... yes, I will be booking weddings now! Can't wait to share two more weddings with you once I have the new blog up and running.
Once it is all set up I will post a link on here. For now, toodles!

Wedding- Tim and Liz

Liz and Tim had such a fun filled day for their wedding day. So much thought went into special touches by them and their families. I was blown away by all the details. 

I'm not sure what I loved more about the day. The awesome paper bouquets, fingerprint engraved rings, beautiful artwork that was made into a "guestbook", fun masks for all the guests, an ice cream truck at the reception, homemade pinatas or Tim serenading his bride. Wow! All of it was just amazing!
Congratulations to the adorable couple. I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Thank you!

Just wanted to say thank you to a few people...
I received all these in one day. An adorable thank you card from my recent bride-Liz with a Starbucks gift card. oohhh... thank you! Can't wait to ditch my adorable children and go use this!
And... I recieved my "capture life" necklace from the contest I won. It is so cute! I have worn it almost every day since. Love it!
Then... yesterday I got a sweet note from a client thanking me for the pictures. I had to laugh b/c on her check in the note part it said, "for kick*** pictures!" That just made me laugh and smile!
This photography journey has been just that. I journey for me. I am learning more every day and trying to improve my images. Thank you to all who have supported this journey!

peace out, a

Darcy- Beautiful Belly

Darcy is one of my best friends. She and I met about a year and a half ago and we joke about how we don't know how we lived our first 29 years of life without each other! We have soo.... many things in common. One thing we don't have in common... I have 3 boys. She is going to have 3 girls. :) We are all happy about it though because that means there is a better chance of a "Holsopple-Tonagel" wedding someday. :) 

A few weekends ago Darc assisted/second shot for me at a wedding in LP so we decided to stay the night and make a little weekend out of it. I insisted on a few preggo pics of her. Poor girl had to pose herself b/c my brain was fried after a wedding and a family shoot but we got some adorable pictures of her. She is so pretty! 

Did I mention that Darcy is a photographer? She has helped me so much with my skills and I really appreciate it! Check out her work here. 

This picture is for her family. She noticed in my parents' antique shop there was a "Replogle" Globe. So of course we had to put it in a belly shot!

Darc you are such a wonderful friend. Thanks for all you do for me!

Wainscott Family

Thank you to the Wainscott Family for coming to LaPorte for a family session with me. Erin and I went all through school together and believe it or not she and her main squeeze have been together longer than my hubby and me! Didn't think that was possible but it is! :) These high school sweethearts are still going strong! And look at these cute kiddos of theirs!!

Thanks guys for a fun time!

In addition to a photoshoot they also got to enjoy the "Sensow Funny Farm" for a bit. :) Bubba was my assistant and helped entertain the girls.

Keeping it real... here is what Ashlynn thought of me and my big fat camera. :)

Addison though was all smiles!

Dylan is so handsome! Got his mama's beautiful eyes!

 Thanks guys!
