I want to give a great big shout out to Megan and Elwood, who are celebrating their one-year anniversary today. Megan and Elwood were such a fun couple and we had a blast shooting their wedding and reception last year, complete with the OSU Alumni Band as a surprise for Elwood.
Here are a few images to commemorate their day:
Happy Anniversary, Megan and Elwood!!
I knew from Amanda and Ernesto’s engagement session that the wedding would be hot hot hot. Of course, we had plenty of hot weather, thanks to the heat wave returning to Ohio just in time for their wedding, but the hot hot hot I’m referring to especially means all the sparks flying between Amanda and Ernesto. Wow. We began the day in Amanda’s hotel room at the Hyatt on Capitol Square, ran across the street for some quicky portraits, then on to Holy Cross Catholic Church for their beautiful ceremony full of love and traditions of Ernesto’s Mexican heritage. Then it was on to the Large Theatre at The Athenaeum for the reception, where the dancing was at fever pitch and oh so beautiful. At times, it was all I could do to shoot it – I was so mesmerized by Amanda and Ernesto’s sultry – and perfect! – dancing that I found myself just wanting to watch, it was so beautiful! You could definitely tell that they’d shut out the entire world when they were dancing with each other.
But, enough rambling – you want to see pictures!!
Congratulations, Amanda and Ernesto, and thank you for having us share your day!!
How lucky I am to have such wonderful clients who love what I’ve done for them enough to send me their friends! This is how I met Sarah, Rick and their delightful new family member, Chase. Sarah came to me through Stephanie and Greg, and we hit it off immediately, so I knew we were going to have a great time together.
I like to shoot portraits the same way I shoot weddings and engagement sessions: totally natural, with only a minimum of direction, with the focus on relationships and interactions. As you’ll see from these images, I like to get just as close with portraits as I do on a wedding day! Close, close, close – it’s how you get the good stuff!!
So, on to the show!
I love how babies can be soooo serious.
Chase’s first foray into the grass.
This, I understand from Sarah, is “The Look”.
Daddy’s home!
Time for lots of smooches and cuddling.
Easily the world’s cutest baby hair.
Thank you so much, Sarah, Rick and Chase, for allowing me to photograph your beautiful new family!
And if those of you out there are ready for your close-up, give me a call to set up your session!
I am digging this, great job! Miss you girl.
