Ann is one of my “brides to be” for 2013. She terrible at keeping secrets. When I met with her and her fiance she booked a beautiful session as a surprise for him – even though he was sitting right there! She also let me know that she has already given out gifts for her wedding and that there was no way the images we took were going to stay hidden for another seven weeks!
This is just one of several looks we photographed during the session.

A few weeks back I received a very sweet email from Anna. She introduced herself as the best friend of one of my wedding clients and, while she wasn’t able to attend that wedding, she felt like she was a part of it just by viewing the photos I had taken. She continued to share that her own wedding anniversary was approaching and so was the anniversary of some big changes she had made in her own life. With all that in mind, she felt it was time to get some photos taken to celebrate all those events.

By parent law I have to admit that these are two most beautiful children that I will ever photograph. That’s because they are mine.
Now that Carter plays for a club soccer team, he no longer gets one of those awful team portraits. Paige’s dance class doesn’t do pictures either. We needed pictures! What a perfect excuse to to head down to the studio on a rainy Sunday afternoon?

The first time a girl really cares about a dress might be First Communion. The second time is Prom and then their wedding…
Congratulations to Sophia! She’ll be celebrating her First Communion in a few weeks and will, no doubt, be surround by loving family and friends!

Jessica and Marco were married just over a week ago and the Lake Ridge Church in Eastlake, Ohio and had a beautiful reception at Pine Ridge Country Club. For an early April wedding, I have to say we couldn’t have had a more beautiful day. The church was filled with family and friends.
Once the ceremony was complete and it was time for pictures with the wedding party, we were greeted with blue skies and a few white puffy clouds. Wade Lagoon was the first stop for pictures, then over to the campus of Case Western Reserve before a final stop inside Severance Hall. Three fantastic locations for pictures and we took advantage of all of them.
The evening ended at Pine Ridge and a few pictures out on the first hole of the golf course. I’m pretty sure the starter would have let us play 18 for free if we asked. He offered up a golf cart, a drive, a putter and jacket to help keep Jessica warm as the evening air was starting to cool!
