Lindsay + Chris | Engagement

When I left my house to head to Lindsay’s parents for their engagement session, a dark sky followed me the whole way. It was hot, humid, and about to rain. Fantastic. We luckily made it all the way through without having too much of a problem. We dodged a couple of rain drops & it may have been worth it. We had some amazing skies above us that photographed so well.

Might be my favorite ring shot ever…

They had a glass fire pit, it made for great photos. I can not wait for their fall wedding!

Allie + Wes | Ohio Wedding Photography

It was one of those warm summer Saturdays that memories always seem to start with. On that warm Saturday it was the day that Allie would marry Wes. I meet up with Wes’s groomsmen first. I know most of these guys so they seemed to handle the pictures really well.

After sending Wes away we awaited the arrival of Allie. She looked so pretty on her wedding day & how awesome are the bridesmaid dresses? I love that they all have their own style.

They had one pretty little flower girl with three ornery little boys. Two of which are Allie + Wes’s and one is Allie’s nephew. All are complete hams.

When those two went bouncing down the aisle the little flower girl kept saying “LOOK AT ALL THESE WHIPPERSNAPPERS” Absolutely the best thing I’ve ever heard a little one say on a wedding day. Ha!

^^^ I told you the kids were hams.

That is exactly how I pictured life with two little boys. Always trying to keep one still.

Lots of fun dancing to wrap the night up!

Rowan + Logan | Portrait Photography

Two adorable sisters, Rowan + Logan. They are some of the most adorable and friendly kids that I know. Rowan always has a new story to tell you, this day it happened to be all about her 4th birthday party that evening. While little Logan is a happy happy baby. She is always content and loves being held by her mama…

Lindsey, Tony, & Baby | Maternity Photography

Mama to be, the gorgeous Lindsey. She has the pregnancy glow that most people only dream of, such a pure sense of beauty. Lindsay’s husband also beamed with the excitement that only a soon to be father is able to have. They will be welcoming their itty biddy in August.

Lindsey you are so dang gorgeous right now…

Amelia | One Year | Ohio Portrait Photography

A sweet baby girl celebrated her first birthday not too long ago. Little Amelia was welcomed into this world with the love of two big twin sisters and two loving parents. We started off with a couple of the family, the girls were quickly distracted by the balloons. I love these photos they captured who these little girls were the day we all ran around on that hill.

Two of the biggest hams I know…

I could honestly say I don’t think Amelia has ever smiled for me. Not even once, until Mom picks her up. Then she could light up a room with her little smile and sparkly eyes.

What’s a first birthday without your big sisters bopping you on the head with your balloons and trying to get to the icing off the cake?

The Heyne Family | Ohio Portrait Photography

The Heyne’s are clients that I keep photographing year after year. I love watching them grow as a family & I can not believe how big little Weston has became. I’m going to give it another 10 years and Issac & Erin will have their hands full with these boys.

Kate + Doug | Ohio Wedding Photography

There has been a certain buzz surrounding Kate + Doug’s wedding ever since I instagramed a couple of their photos on my drive home from their wedding. People always ask about that one Cincinnati wedding, how gorgeous it was & how I lucked into having them as my couple. I am extremely excited to finally show off Kate + Doug’s wedding.

Kate reading her letter from Doug. I love those moments.

Kate + Doug had an evening ceremony & chose to do a first look. I love when couples do this. It gives them time alone to appreciate who it is they are really about to marry & it allowed us to soak up all the gorgeous afternoon light for photos.

Their ceremony was at the St. Xavier Church. It is a stunning church on a very large grand scale. So big in fact that I almost had a panic attack trying to climb down the staircase from the choir loft.

After all the pictures Kate + Doug arranged for a horse and carriage to pick up their wedding party and deliver them to the door of their reception.

I also love that they allowed me to take them away from their reception & steal a couple more photos under the city lights. They are my favorite ones of the day. Also check out Kate’s shoes. She wore those all day long. Any woman who can walk that gracefully in a pair of heels like that is someone I am instantly jealous of!

SUMMER STYLIZED SESSIONS | JULY 13TH

An adorable little boy with big blue eyes & an even bigger smile…

Megan + Ryan | Ohio Engagement Photography

I had a spare moment of time today in between waiting for my recent wedding to finish processing, I plugged in my old hard drive & realized I have a quite of few sessions that were never blogged. I could not think of a better couple to start off the blogging.

Megan + Ryan

I am fully in love with the summer/spring sessions I’ve been doing lately, but seeing these fall colors made me wish it was fall again. The colors of the fallen leaves, the early evening sunsets, & the cuddling in close during sessions. Few things make me happier.

I can not wait for their fall wedding :)
