Mandy & Brian - October 8, 2011

2011-10-10T15:39:00.001-07:00

Congrats to you both, Mandy and Brian! A beautiful day, a beautiful church, a beautiful bride, and a firefighter. What can I say? (Just kidding Brian, you looked good too.) This day was one for the books, a beautiful ceremony, some fun with Chardon's Ladder Truck, a stop to take some pictures with Brian's dad and grandmother, a traffic jam at Squire's Castle, and some fun candids at Corks Wine Bar. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness, you two are a match made in heaven.

So, as an emergency replacement photographer I was put in a situation to shoot an amazing couple on October 1, 2011. Congrats to you both, Susie and Mike, your wedding was amazing. The weather put a slight damper on the day, but the sky looked amazing. An amazing venue, Crystal Brook Farm, super cold weather, and broken fences added to an already fun day. Susie and Mike, congratulations again, your wedding was beautiful, and I hope it is a prelude to your lives together.

Chris and Jen ~ Aug 6, 2011

What an amazing day. Jen and Chris tied the knot at The Lodge at Geneva on the Lake in Geneva Ohio. The ceremony was outside in this little gazebo overlooking Lake Erie. The rain held off and the overcast sky softened the light perfectly. Jim and I were so happy to be a part of this special day. Wishing you two the best; here are some teasers!

So, Cincinnati is a maze of one way streets and more traffic than the roads can handle; however, on Saturday Jim and I were given the opportunity to spend the day with two amazing people and their families. We started the day at La Bella Salon and Spa, got yelled at by a southern belle, and generally had a blast. The church was beautiful and the groomsmen were a picture of class. Right Dale? Jamie and Ken were the movie couple, looking perfect; Jim and I were so excited to capture the day for them. Here are some teasers, Wishing you two a lifetime of happiness.

Tori Cole, Senior Shots

2010-12-22T11:25:00.000-08:00

So Tori and I attacked Chardon and the surrounding areas to find the absolute best places for some senior pictures. We walked around the square, got some great shots in front of the storefronts, used some doorways and stairways, and the mural by the movie theater. Captured some small town charm and the shots turned out awesome.

Photo-walk Legacy Village Sept. 17, 2010

2010-09-20T10:03:00.000-07:00

So Benny and I went for a photo-walk in Legacy Village on Friday, shooting around, working on perfecting our craft. Weddings tend to start to seem like a job, so we decided to get out and just be photographers. We discovered a beautiful set of twins sporting some very tiny chucks and grabbed some great shots. Thanks to Melinda, (mom) for letting us photograph your beautiful babies, here are some of those shots.

Jason and Tiffany - August 28, 2010

What a day! We started at the salon, hung out there for a couple of hours, then moved to the church, St. Anselm in Chesterland. I love shooting in this church, the natural light is amazing. After the ceremony we followed the limo to the Shoreby Club in Cleveland. The places to shoot were endless, they even let us all out on a pier that was in less than perfect shape...

The reception at St. Noel Party Center was beautiful, ran into alot of people from "back in the day".
Congratulations Jason and Tiffany, and thanks for the opportunity to be a part of your day!

Nicole and Tim - August 7, 2010

2010-08-11T08:43:00.000-07:00

So I ended up in Pittsburgh for my cousin Tim's wedding on August 7th. I wasn't the photog, but I brought my camera anyway. Trying not to step on the photog's toes I managed to get some great shots from a distance. The ceremony was beautiful, the church was brand new and spectacular inside, just a little dark. Shooting low light is never fun, but I made it work.

The reception was at The Doubletree Hotel in Moon Township, beautiful venue with a terrace in the back. It was kinda nice to be at a wedding and not working. Congrats to Tim and Nicole. Here are some shots from cocktail hour.

Melissa and Bob - July 10, 2010

2010-07-26T10:43:00.000-07:00

Melissa and Bob's wedding in Medina was a lot of fun. The venue, Williams on the Lake was one of the nicest wedding settings I've seen. The ceremony was in a gazebo tucked in some trees, the aisle was a grape trellis, and the lake in the background made for some great shots. Melissa and Bob did a sand pour instead of unity candle, brilliant display of "two become one" .

Brian and Brittany - June 26, 2010

2010-07-26T08:29:00.000-07:00

We shot Brian and Brittany's wedding at Fowler's Mill Golf Course on Saturday, June 26. The ceremony was on this peninsula into a lake with nothing but trees and horizon in the background. The pictures were breathtaking.

Weddings are so much more fun when the bride and groom love each other. We gave Brian and Brittany a moment to themselves and the pictures show the passion in their relationship.
