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

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

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

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

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

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

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

McKenna and Josh had their first date at the Cincinnati Nature Center so of course it made sense that they have their engagement session there! We hiked well over a mile but the photos were worth it! Congratulations McKenna and Josh - you two are perfect together! #cincinnatiengagement #engagement #columbusengagement #daytonengagementphotography #engagementphotography #engagementsession #cincinnatiengagementphotographer #cincinnatiengagementphotography #daytonengagementphotog

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 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

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

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

This cute little family will become one next June and I couldn't be more excited for them. Allison had some great ideas for photos and I love how they turned out! Check them out! #cincinnatiengagement #engagement #columbusengagement #daytonengagementphotography #engagementphotography #engagementsession #cincinnatiengagementphotographer #cincinnatiengagementphotography #daytonengagementphotographer #daytonweddingphotography #daytonweddingphotographer #daytonohweddingphotograph

Angie + Nick's intimate wedding at Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN was nothing short of amazing. They were surrounded by close family and friends, on a picturesque day in Nashville. It didn't matter if there was rain though since they got married under the Garden Conservatory at the Crystal Gazebo. This blog speaks for itself in so many ways! Angie and Nick are some of the nicest people I have ever met and their family is just as wonderful. I’m very honored to have b

Bridget and Shawn are getting married in May in Punta Cana and I was lucky enough to be able to take their engagement photos. Shawn kept Bridget laughing the whole session and they had some pretty great ideas for photo locations. First we met near their home at Piatt Park and then headed to Eden Park, both in Cincinnati, OH. Here are some of my favorites from their engagement session. #cincinnatiengagement #engagement #columbusengagement #daytonengagementphotography #engageme
