Today on the blog I'm featuring Jayden + Jamie's stunning wedding at Stambaugh Auditorium in downtown Youngstown! Jayden and Jamie are some of the happiest, most go with the flow type of people I've ever met. I knew this about Jamie when I first met her years ago while studying art and working at Youngstown State University. She would seriously just make me laugh every time we were together because she has such an infectiously joyful personality. When I met Jayden a year ago for their engagement photos I knew they were a good fit for each other. These are truly my favorite kind of couples. The ones you just look at and go, "good job at finding one another!" They're just so cute and perfect together!
Read MoreLast month, my fiancé, Donny, and I went to visit some family members in Clearwater, Florida - our soon to be permanent home. In planning our trip, we set up photo sessions with couples and family living in the Tampa area. We were lucky enough to have Hoby + Kathryn in town during the same week! Capturing their love was an incredible experience, despite some unavoidable and uncontrollable obstacles that were thrown our way.
Read MoreToday I'm sharing some highlights from Joey and Kelly's Christmas tree farm engagement session before all of our snowy days in Ohio are officially over and spring sets in! :) I met up with these two lovebirds at their family's gorgeous tree farm in New Castle, Pennsylvania the morning of a fresh snowfall. The whole setting was so magical and snow even fell the entire time we took photos! I don't think we could have asked for a better day.
Read MoreI first met Jordan and Eva when we went to Fellows Riverside Gardens for their engagement session about five months before their wedding and I just knew I would love them. They're so sweet, fun, full of life and completely in love with each other. Their connection is so undeniable and pure. You couldn't tear these two apart if you tried. It's couples like this who make me feel extra honored and excited to do what I do. I couldn't wait to document one of the best days of their lives!
Read MoreWhen the lovely Elyse asked me if I'd drive out to Geneva to shoot her senior photos, I was thrilled! I hold this girl very dear to my heart and consider her family. In a few months, she'll be moving to Florida for bigger and sunnier things (right behind you, chica. Just kidding...maybe). Given the bright circumstances of her future, she thought it would be perfect to shoot on the beach at Lake Erie. Though it was a little chilly, we caught the prettiest golden hour sunset. Congratulations, Elyse! Warren G. Harding High School 2016 grad!
