A Hemlock Weekend
“Only people of a certain disposition are frightened of being alone for the rest of their lives at the age of 26, and we were of that disposition.”
-Rob Gordon, High Fidelity
Newborn Family Session: Nolan Avery
I need you to prepare yourself: there is an adorable newborn baby boy AND a smiling puppers. What a job I’ve got. <3 My first session of 2020 was overwhelmingly cute, and I got to catch up with an old friend! Maci is already a great big sister. Congratulations Julie and Kevin!!
Washington’s Landing Fall Mini Sessions Pt 2
WOW. Talk about wrapping up fall minis on a high note! 4 lovely families and another beautiful autumn (but more like summer, lol) day. So many beautiful kiddos, a super cute puppers, and TWO expecting mamas! You may recognize one, she is my BEEEF after all! Not to brag, she is due on my birthday. So, BFFs already. <3
A NOAH’S Event Venue Wedding: Laura and Ulf
As a photographer, you prepare for the moment when a perfect wedding has a hiccup. Okay… but that didn’t happen, even once for Laura and Ulf. Everything was beautiful! Laura put her dress on, and I audibly gasped. THAT incredible. These two know how to throw a heck of a wedding, and I am so happy they picked little ol me to photograph it. It was such a fun day, that I didn’t want to stop. Laura had to make me leave and go home to rest, haha! But look, the dance floor was SO fun. It’s not my fault! 😉 XO
Washington’s Landing Fall Mini Sessions Pt 1
Fall Minis 2019 (part 1) was AMAZING. The kiddos had a blast with their goofy photographer. They even taught me some new dance moves. I still don’t know what exactly Fortnite is, but I am old so *shrug*
Prepare yourself for an insane about of adorable families.
Another fun note: enjoy how the sun sets as you scroll through 🙂
An Ohio Township Nature Center Family Session
Look, October is mayhem for a portrait and wedding photographer. But this session is so beautiful, that I’ll skip a meal to find a time to post this. 😉 These good people are family first, and it shows. It was raining above us, but the beautiful trees kept us dry. I am so glad we braved the rain, because wow. <3
An Elias Fry Barn Wedding: Jessica and Michael
Where should I start? To say that I love this family would be an understatement. We have been together at special occasions, portrait sessions, announcements, etc since the year I opened my business. I have loved watching your family grow and your lives evolve for 7 years, and I can only hope for many more! This couple is love. That sincere, deep and true love. There’s a profound level of respect for one another, and it shows. Jessica and Michael are the real deal. But how could I go any further in my little intro without mentioning Amelia. The beautiful, bright-eyed flower girl, and daughter to the new Mr. and Mrs. Michael Seefeld. I hope you enjoy the photos of this gorgeous September wedding. Thank you to my lovely bestie, and assistant photographer, Courtney Santo. Her images are mixed in below.
A North Side Engagement: Lee Anne and Ryan
It is SO SPRING. Everything is in bloom, it’s beautiful, and it is engagement session season! Lee Anne and Ryan first met at a coffee shop, so we brought it back to the start. Oh and guess what? There’s a very happy puppy named Beans, who is thrilled his parents are getting married this November! <3
A Bartram’s Garden Wedding: Brooke and Stephen
Wow. Okay so a quick backstory: I photographed a wedding in 2014 and there was this totally cute couple there attending as guests. I found myself taking a lot of candids of them BECAUSE they were so sweet together. Fast forward a couple years later, I get an inquiry from that couple. They are getting married and loved the candids so much, they want to hire me for their wedding. CUE TEARS. My pride left immediately and I practically begged them to let me shoot the wedding so I could tell everyone I know this story and cry. (Feeeeelings!)
