Rachael & Michael’s Cleveland wedding
I finally finished editing all 569 of Rachael and Michael’s wedding photos. To this date, their wedding contains the most photos I have ever delivered.

Preview – Rachael and Michael’s Cleveland wedding
We had a long drive home that night. Michael, my second photographer, and I were exhausted. Slowly we began to recover and started discussing the night’s events. We knew we had captured a really special wedding. It was not until later that we both realized how special it really was….

Will your wedding album outlast changing fashion?
For couples, there is a lot to consider when designing a wedding photo album. The easy stuff is whether the album quality made and printed on acid-free, archival paper. Just about any wedding photographer can provide a high-quality album. But what about a great design that outlasts changing fashion?

Photos stylized with too many actions or page layouts that are more about fashion than thoughtful design can “age” quickly. This is a problem that I see a lot.

Kate & Brian – Rocky River Engagement
There are certain things that make me happy to be a Cleveland wedding photographer. The most notable is the scenery. Cleveland has a huge abundance of shooting locations. The Rocky River Reservation, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, downtown Cleveland, and any number of suburb locations are all great places to shoot.

Kate & Dick – Lakewood Engagement
The lighting could not have been more perfect. Just about everywhere we went, the light was not too strong and really creamy. This really allowed for some great, natural portraits. I even got a chance to bring out the big studio lights and push them against the sun.
Brooke was kind enough to assist, but I think I had to bribe her with dinner out. Of course, Kate and Dick were a pleasure to work with. But what you would expect from fans of vinyl.
