October in Indiana brought the perfect setting for Rachel and Ari’s black-and-white elegant wedding at the timeless Ritz Charles in Carmel, just north of Indianapolis. As an Indianapolis wedding photographer, it’s always a dream to capture love stories in such a stunning venue, but Rachel and Ari’s day? Unforgettable.

From the moment we stepped into the Hotel Carmichael bridal suite, the air was buzzing with anticipation and joy. Rachel was an absolute vision in her gown, adorned with a breathtaking mantilla veil that added a timeless, heirloom touch to her bridal look. Their first look to their editorial inspired portraits in the soft October light are some of our favorite elegant wedding photos to date.
