Alex + Chad: Engagement Session at Bicentennial Park, Columbus, Ohio

High School sweethearts, Alex and Chad, are finally tying the knot! The two met in junior high and started dating in High School. Their relationship blossomed and they both went down to Athens to Ohio University for undergrad.

Their wedding planning has been well underway - they got engaged their junior year of college, and after 3 years of planning are excited to have it become a reality! Alex and Chad are an amazingly sweet couple with this wonderful positive energy that's contagious! I've loved working with them since we first met and am so excited to capture their wedding day this weekend! :-)

Since the couple is from Columbus, they wanted to visit a location that showed the beautiful Columbus skyline. We ventured to Bicentennial Park and the Main Street bridge to capture them both with some beautiful views. It's easy to see the special connection that they share and we could not be happier for them both as they start this next chapter of their lives together. Enjoy some of my favorite images from their engagement session!

Lindsay + Brian Engagement Session: Bicentennial Park, Columbus, OH

When Lindsay mentioned that she wanted to have their engagement session with "twinkly-holiday lights" this winter I was so excited! December is one of the best times of the year to get the special holiday light feel and I knew that Bicentennial Park and the Scioto Mile in downtown Columbus, Ohio would be the perfect place! For a relatively mild winter, we just so happened to pick one of the chilliest days in December! I'm so glad the Lindsay and Brian braved the chilly temperatures and joined me for an evening of making some amazing night portraits!

Enjoy some of my favorite images from their session! Can't wait for their big day in just a couple of weeks!

They exchanged vows at the beautiful Overbrook Presbyterian Church in Columbus and their reception followed at The Boat House at Confluence Park, also in Columbus. It was a sunny, but slightly brisk spring day, but that didn't stop us from making some fabulous images of them and their loved ones.
