Holly & Brian – Mentor Lagoon engagement, deer and scallops
Photography needs to be more than digital imagery. The end product must have meaning to the viewer or the photographs will fall flat. That is why I took some time to photograph Charlie Fry (the dog) with Jackie and Scott for their engagement photos. I took similar but different steps for Holly and Brian. Step inside to see how we made their engagement photos more personal.
Preview – Katie & Jerry’s Columbus Engagement
It’s 9:00 and I am flying down the highway, leaving Cleveland for Columbus. I have an engagement shoot later that day and everything is perfect. Then WHAM! Life always throws you a twist when things are going too perfect. For me the twist was traffic. The kind of highway traffic where you park the car and play football in the median. I was going nowhere and the shoot I had planned for weeks was in jeopardy. Jump inside to find out what happened and to see a preview of Katie and Jerry’s engagement photos.
Bailee & Aaron – Cleveland Botanical Gardens wedding
Out of the blue I received a call from Bailee. She was searching for a wedding photographer and their wedding was just around the corner. By some luck of Oden, I was free for their big wedding day. The luck was not hers, but mine. You see, they were getting married at my favorite venue of all time. Hit the jump to see the great location and some of my favorite photos.
Molly & Justin – Columbus wedding
I don’t know what I was thinking. I shot this wedding at the beginning of last year and never really posted any of the images. I have used a couple of the wedding photos in my portfolio, but never offered any details on the wedding day. Well, I magically found an hour or two, so I thought I would create a new wedding post.
Troy & Sherita – portraits at the Lakewood studio
Troy and Sherita stopped by the studio earlier today to drop off their wedding photography contract. They are getting married in October just south of Cleveland. Little did they know I had little surprise planned. The photo studio was all setup to grab a couple quick portraits of each of them. I didn’t know how they would be dressed or what kind of mood they would be in after a day of wedding planning. Needless to say, the portraits could not have gone better. They were in a fantastic mood and I was ready to roll. Here are the results.
Summer Sizzlin’
As I shoot more weddings and portraits, I am carrying my camera with me more often. And my friends are getting used to me with a camera. They have learned to just accept it and largely ignore me when I have the camera in my hand.
Kate & Brian – Downtown Cleveland wedding
OMG, OMG, OMG…the wedding I have been waiting for all year finally happened. And it was awesome. Jeremy, my assistant, and I got a insane amount of wedding photos. I will be editing the photos for weeks, but it was totally worth it. With wedding clients like Kate and Brian, you can’t help but to get excited.
Step inside to see how this middle-November wedding featured amazing weather, locations and a gorgeous couple.
Maternity portraits – Jessica & Jevon
I met Jessica and Jevon through work completely separate from my wedding photography. At the time, they were not even dating. Before you knew it, they went from dating, to married to expecting.
At that point, they both wanted to capture some great photos of their little family before it grew one person larger. Since then, I am happy to report they have a healthy baby girl.
The Nick and The Nance – Miami University Wedding
“The” with a capital-T before your name means you are really great. The Nick and The Nance are define truly great. To this day, they are two of my favorite friends and clients. Their entire wedding party was filled with some amazing people and interesting humor. Oh, and the scenery for the wedding at Miami University of Ohio could not have been more perfect. Step inside to see more of this spring wedding and the fun party.
