Katie & Jonah's pastoral engagement in Kirtland

Katie & Jonah – a family engagement in Kirtland

When I first met Katie, her mother was kind enough to come along to the meeting. It was so nice getting to know them together. Their excitement for Katie’s upcoming wedding was infectious. Later, Katie and I put together a great plan for her engagement session with Jonah. As a pleasant surprise, the entire family joined in. Step inside to see why this was a welcome surprise and some beautiful photos from Katie & Jonah’s autumn engagement session.

Makiko & Dylan – Engagement South of Cleveland

We first met through a failed Skype video call. After numerous attempts to get connected, we gave up and just stayed on the phone. Makiko and Dylan were in two different locations, as they are today. We talked about their planned wedding at Holden arboretum, how they met and how they got engaged. Like many of us, Makiko and Dylan met at college. What started at Standford is now headed towards a happy wedding. Step inside to see their cold winter engagement session on a sunny day just south of Cleveland.
