Kristen & Joe Wedding: NorthStar Golf Club, Sunbury, Ohio

Kristen and Joe tied the knot in June at the NorthStar Golf Club in Sunbury, Ohio. Rain showers were predicted for most of the day, but luckily the raindrops held off until shortly after their outdoor ceremony. Once the rain subsided, we were excited that the couple was willing to venture outside again for some beautiful portraits of the two of them on the golf course. The ceremony was officiated by one of their childhood pastors and one of their cousins sang at the beginning of the ceremony. The reception was a ton of fun and it was neat capturing the couple and their guests show off their dance moves during the reception.

A special congrats to Kristen and Joe on what was truly a picture perfect day! It was an honor to work with you both and your families.

Suzanne & Ron Anniversary Portrait Session: Creekside Park & Plaza, Gahanna, Ohio

I love capturing a good love story - whether it be a couple's, family's, or pet's love - and it's always an honor to be asked by someone you know to do so. I've had the pleasure of getting to know Suzanne and Ron through the local business they co-own, The Diamond Studio! Located in Gahanna, The Diamond Studio is a family retail jewelry store that offers an assortment of fine jewelry, custom design work, jewelry and watch repair, appraisals, and precious metals and stones. You can learn more on their website: http://thediamondstudiogahanna.com/

Suzanne wanted to do something special for their 20th Wedding Anniversary - so to celebrate, they had an anniversary portrait session, complete with their Boxer dog, Carson! 

Suzanne enjoyed starting her session our full service hair and make-up options at our studio by Gahanna make-up artist, Make You, (www.makeyou614.com), before venturing to Creekside Park and Plaza - a favorite spot in Gahanna for portraits!

Suzanne and Ron are easily two of the most fun and positive people you'll meet. They were joking throughout the entire session and we had a wonderful time capturing them and their dog. When asked if they had any tips for marriage, they said that in addition to communicating, one of the keys was to always have some fun in your relationship. :-)

Enjoy some of my favorites from their session!

Olivia Newborn Portrait Session: Studio, Gahanna/Columbus, Ohio

It was an honor to work with Hannah and Joel on their wedding day, but an even bigger honor to capture their growing family! Little Miss Olivia said "Hello World" in August and looked so incredibly cute at her newborn session at the studio. This sweet little girl was blessed with 2 of the sweetest parents to match. :-)

It's hard to believe she'll be coming back for her 6 month portraits in just a few days! She's grown a lot, so I wanted to share a few of my favorites from this little one's newborn session, before she makes her second debut in the studio - enjoy!

Kelly & Scott's Fall Engagement Portrait Session: Schiller Park, German Village - Columbus, Ohio

It's hard to believe that Kelly and Scott's wedding day is just a couple of months away! The couple has an appreciation for unique urban spaces in the Columbus area. With their downtown Columbus wedding, the pair decided to add some urban flair to their engagement session at the beautiful Schiller Park nestled in the heart of German Village. Not only does Schiller Park boast the quaint atmosphere that German Village is known for, but it's gardens are impeccably kept and the pond, bridge, and stage are breathtaking and make you feel like you're somewhere else. It's one of my favorite places for photographs, so I was thrilled to hear that they wanted to go there!

We had the perfect fall day for their session and enjoyed venturing through the park. I can't wait for their wedding in just a couple of months. Enjoy some of my favorites from their session!

Alex & Chad Wedding: The Club at Corazón, Dublin, Ohio

High School sweethearts, Alex and Chad, tied the knot in a gorgeous wedding ceremony and reception at The Club at Corazón in Dublin, Ohio. 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.

Growing up together, they have a very special bond that's easy to see. The couple works incredibly hard at each endeavor, but they also make time to find the fun in life and their positive attitudes, smiles, and laughter are contagious. :-)

They got engaged their junior year of college, and after 3 years of planning their dream wedding became a reality! Everything about their wedding day was picture perfect. They had fallen in love with the rustic Italy feel of indoor and outdoor spaces at Club at Corazón. The morning was drizzly, but the weather gave way to beautiful blue skies and puffy clouds for their ceremony. 

Every detail had so much thought. From their purple and green color scheme, to their large photo collage, to the surprise custom first dance, their wedding details made their day very memorable. Since they have so many memories from their college days, they very creatively included OU in their wedding decor and table numbers. All of their guests had a a wonderful time, keeping the dance floor packed until it was time for their sparkler send-off! 

A special congrats to Alex and Chad and their quickly approaching anniversary. It was so much fun working with them both and their families. I cannot wait to see what other adventures the future holds for them!

Everett Newborn Session: Home, Columbus, Ohio

One of the best parts of what I do is the connections and relationships that I build with my clients. There is no greater honor than being able to stay in touch and document their lives as their families grow and lives change. 

It was wonderful working with past wedding clients, Merisa and Curt, to capture their little one, Everett in their home! He is already so loved and blessed to have them as his parents. Everett was born just before the holidays in December, so we were able to have some fun holiday themed photos during his session. 

Enjoy some of my favorites from his session!
