ashley + matthew | wedding | wedding photographer in ann arbor, michigan

I met with Ashley and Matthew for their engagement session and a few weeks before the wedding at a Starbucks and they were so go with the flow and relaxed and the perfect pair. Their wedding was my first time shooting after having a baby and while I was dreading leaving my little guy, I was so excited to be a part of their day and wouldn't have missed it for the world. It was a beautiful, sunny fall day in September. The weather seriously couldn't have been any better (note t

shannon + silas | wedding | wedding photographer in franklin, indiana

I had so much fun capturing Shannon & Silas’s Barn at Hamner Ridge wedding. These two are both so sweet and oh so perfect for one another. They started their day getting ready at their venue, Barn at Hamner Ridge where they had a first look and took some photos of the bridal party. We then made our way to downtown Franklin, Indiana for some more bridal party photos and then headed to St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church for a beautiful ceremony. After the ceremony, we stayed and

hana + nicholas | wedding | intimate wedding photographer in dayton, oh

Small weddings are my favorite. They are relaxed, intimate and focused on celebrating with those closest to you. Hana and Nick's union in Ohio was all of these things and so enjoyable to document. These two are incredibly kind and their friends and family were so welcoming throughout the day. The ceremony and then the dinner that followed was genuine, natural and centered around Hana & Nick. I want to thank them for allowing me to photograph such a special day for them – it w

baby announcement | family | family photographer in ann arbor, mi

You've probably seen them before on the blog since they are my best customers (they had 3 sessions alone in 2018 and that was my first year - and I wasn't very good :) ) I know them from the small town we grew up in and was so excited to find out that these high school sweethearts were having their third baby! It was a little chilly and windy so we moved quick but I am in love with the results. Congratulations on your upcoming arrival! #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #cincinnat

Taschia & Kyle first met as kids, reconnected as teenagers and now they are getting married and I'm so excited to be apart of their love story. We met at Ault Park in Cincinnati on a hot day in May (or at least it felt hot to me at 30 weeks pregnant!) when we were quickly losing light. I was a little worried it was going to be too dark for their photos but they turned out beautiful! I can't wait to see these two again in October 2020 for their wedding at Fritz Farm in Mt. Ora

Erin contacted me prior to the birth of their first child and booked a Fresh 48. Shortly after she also asked me if I photographed weddings and if I traveled.. um YES! I'm glad they loved their Fresh 48 photos because 6 months later I had the privilege of witnessing another major milestone in their life, their marriage, in the beautiful state of Tennessee. (If you are wanting an intimate wedding, I definitely recommend their venue, Chapel in the Hollow!) Here are a few snippe

Maggie and Ben. Two people that you could so easily see were made for each other. They got married on a chilly day in March in Kentucky so there wasn't much color in the landscape. When I was getting together all the images I would be posting for this blog, I realized that most of them were in black and white. Then it hit me — why not an entire blogpost in black and white? Black and white photos are usually my favorite. I appreciate the simplicity of the photo and how with th

Tasha found me in a fellow fire wives Facebook group and I'm so happy she did! We headed out to Big Tree Plantation in Morrow, OH on quite possibly one of their busiest days of the year! We waited an hour to park (and almost got my car stuck in the mud) but it was worht it. How cute is their little man, Maverick?! #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #cincinnatifamily #columbusohfamilyphotographer #columbusfamilyphotographer #families #cincinnatifamilyphotography #family #daytonohio

I'm always so excited when people ask if they can bring their dog(s) to the session. YES! ALWAYS! I met Joe, Monica, and their two pups (plus Monica's dad to help wrangle them haha) at Hills & Dales Metropark in Kettering, OH on a chilly fall day in November. I had never been to this park but it was beautiful and there was no shortage of fall colors and scenery. Joe & Monica spent the whole time laughing and seemed so happy together. They've got a lot of love to give and thei

tree mini sessions | holiday | family photographer in dayton, ohio

One of my favorite memories growing up was going to the Christmas Tree Farm to pick out a tree. It was always so fun and something I looked forward to every year. So when it came time to plan for holiday mini sessions, the tree farm was a no brainer. I not only was able to have sessions in the Dayton, OH area but I also went to the Ann Arbor, MI area where I grew up and was able to see some old friends. If you are looking for a photographer for your holiday cards, I would lov

I first met Aryn and Eric in July for their engagement session and after that meeting I couldn't wait to shoot their special day. I've never seen a couple so genuinely in love. The day was beautiful. They were surrounded by a small group of their friends and family under a covered bridge in Lynchburg, Ohio, the town where Eric grew up. After the reception, we went to a little tucked away reserve where they had their first date and it couldn't have been more perfect.. Thank y

I joined the Bevington on a beautiful (but chilly) fall day for their Hobart Urban Nature Preserve family session. They live only minutes away from this park so it was quick and easy to get to with a baby in tow! I loved seeing Kole and Keegan together and know these photos will be cherished by them in the future. Thank you so much for letting me capture this time in your life, I really enjoyed it! #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #cincinnatifamily #columbusohfamilyphotographer

I really enjoyed documenting the Bizzarro family during their fall session at Cox Arboretum. The boys were so much fun to watch as they observed everything at the park, especially the turtles and fish! We met on a beautiful fall day and these four had a great time cuddling and hanging out. Thanks so much for asking me to capture this moment in time for you guys Lauren, it was fun! #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #cincinnatifamily #columbusohfamilyphotographer #columbusfamilyph

I first met Kalyn and Brad in the spring when I did a model call for an engaged couple and I'm so happy I met them! They loved the engagement session from May and decided to book with me and wanted a fall engagement session as well. At our spring session, it was cloudy and rainy but the photos turned out beautiful. Fast forward 5 months and the weather was the same but the results were equally beautiful. We got permission to shoot at their wedding venue, Canopy Creek Farm in

Documenting Cassey & Anthony's Magnolia Estate Wedding in Miamisburg, OH was so much fun. These two definitely know how to have a good time and throw good party! I didn't meet Cassey or Anthony until that day but I was immediately comfortable with them and am so thankful I was able to be a part of their day and witness their union. Not only was the weather beautiful (although a little hot for October!) but Cassey thought of every single detail for the day. Their wedding day w

fall mini sessions | at the orchard | family photographer in dayton, ohio

One of my favorite early fall activities is going to the orchard for apple picking, cider, and donuts.. and then in late fall I love pumpkin picking and hayrides so it made sense that the only option for these mini sessions would be at a local fruit farm! Monnin's Fruit Farm happened to be right down the road for me and allowed me to set up shop for a couple afternoons. Even though it was 80 degrees and the apples were almost all gone, the photos still turned out beautiful an

Savannah and Zack were the first couple I had the opportunity to photograph back in March and I'm so happy they took a chance on me. I love being able to follow a couple along on their journey through their engagement, marriage, and life together. After their engagement session, I already knew how in love they were but it was even more apparent on their big day. Savannah described the day as her dream backyard country wedding and I couldn't agree more. Their ceremony space wa

I set my alarm and made the 2 hour drive to The Inn at Honey Run in Millersburg, OH and OH.EM.GEE it was beautiful!
