Last month, Donny & I had the pleasure of capturing the love & commitment between two of our favorite couples, Kevin + Michelle. We had been waiting almost a year for their big day—since we photographed their engagement photos in downtown Cleveland last fall. A year passed by quickly, and we finally had the chance to capture their gorgeous wedding on August 9!

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!

Alex and Becca are the kind of people you want to be friends with – that’s the best way I can describe them! We met up on a frigid, snowy day at Poland Municipal Forest for a fun, nature-filled engagement session. They brought along their beautiful white husky, Hafis, their parents, and fresh coffee and creamer to share (which totally went a long way because we couldn’t feel our fingers)! Poland woods quickly turned into one of my absolute favorite photography locations in the Youngstown area. It just has so many unique elements and lovely scenery!

Meet Koda, Shadow, Neko, Balto and Jenna — five newborn husky babies ready to take on the world! When my fiancé, Donny, and I found out his parents dog, Kloie, was preggers, we knew we’d have to set up a little photo session to capture all of the cuteness. This turned into a time consuming project, but one that we were excited to undertake.
