brittany + bret | farm wedding | wedding photographer in ann arbor, michigan

Brittany and Bret got married on a beautiful October day at Gorman Heritage Farm in Cincinnati, OH where Brittany works. These two have a farm of their own so this was the perfect setting for their perfect day. After the ceremony, I followed them around the farm snapping photos with the animals and then we hopped in the back of a Gator and took a (very bumpy) ride up to an overlook of the city. Thank you so much Brittany and Bret (and daughter Charlie) for allowing me to be a

jake | senior session | senior photographer in toledo, ohio

Jake is a senior at Rossford High School in Rossford, OH and he made my job so easy! Not just because he is my nephew, but because he was a natural! And ladies, isn't he handsome? :-p I had never done a senior session with a guy before so to be honest, I was a little nervous but this was quick and painless for both of us. I was also a little worried because it was SO sunny and there wasn't a cloud in sight. And shade was nowhere to be found. (Photographers love shade!) Check

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

baby p | maternity session | maternity photographer in cincinnati, ohio

When first starting my business, I was given the advice that I needed to specialize in one type of photography and shoot only that. Only families, only weddings, only newborns, etc. As I started to gain experience, I quickly realized I loved so many types of sessions and I didn't want to just choose one. I don't want to meet you one time, be apart of a huge moment in your life and then never see you again.. I want to be your "forever photographer." Engaged? I'm your girl. Ge

christmas tree farm session | holiday | family photographer in cincinnati, ohio

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

family | in-home lifestyle session | family photographer in dayton, ohio

You may recognize the Judy family from the spring when Whitney won a Mommy and Me session. (How could you forget the mother/son wine and baking session?!) I was excited to see them again and take more photos at their beautiful home in Kettering, OH. Here are a few from their Christmas mini session! I love how their dog looks like he is smiling too! #cincinnatifamily #mommyandmesession #columbusohfamilyphotographer #lifestylephotographer #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #lifestyl

family session | holiday | family photographer in dayton, ohio

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 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

Annnnd the third Madison graduating in 2019! How crazy is that, that all my seniors are named Madison?! This girl was no different from the last two. She was a natural and took direction with such ease. Check out her session that we did at Something Old Dayton. Best wishes to Madison and the class of 2019! #dayton #daytonohio #daytonohphotography #daytonohphotographer #daytonoh #daytonseniorphotographer #daytonseniorphotography #daytonohsenior #daytonohiograduation #daytonpho

Another Madison graduating in 2019! Madison was another model call and she also made it easy on me. What was I so worried about?! Madison plans on going to a school in California for college and I couldn't be more excited for her. She loves to read and dance and was so much fun to photograph. I can't wait to hear about Madison's future and I know she will make a huge difference in the world. Congratulations Madison! *Cox Arboretum in Miamisburg, OH* #dayton #daytonohio #dayto

I had never done a senior session before but was interested in trying it out so I had a model call and Madison applied. I'm so glad she was my first attempt at this, she made it easy for me! Madison is pursuing photography herself so she already knew how to pose and good spots for photos. I was very nervous for this session but Madison was so friendly and chatty, the nerves completely went away. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this girl and I hope to work with h

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
