New York Wedding: Greg and Claire

This wedding was so amazing for me as a photographer. One reason being that Claire kept awesome contact with me so I knew so much about her, she and Greg's relationship and their families. Another reason is that Clair and Greg scheduled so much time for pictures. I felt like I was at an all you can take picture buffet lol! Needless to say I took the most pictures that I have ever taken at a wedding =)! It was just perfect. It also didn't hurt anything that I got to travel to New York for this wedding!! I had a wonderful time and met some of the nicest people.
This wedding had so many cool features: a red corvette, bride who loves the piano and sang to her groom at the reception (awwwwwww, sniff, sniff), a waterfall, an ice cream shop, a bride and groom who were pretty much up for anything oh and did I mention that the wedding colors were the same as my new business colors!
Thank you so much Greg and Claire for allowing me to be part of your day, it was nothing sort of a fairy tale!!!

I think it's safe to say the bride and groom had one thing on their mind that day


I found so many ways to incorporate Claire's love for the piano into her pics




Love this ring shot!


You guys know about my love of shoes =)


We got a little gansta with this shot lol


Claire couldn't be more beautiful


Yes, this is the groom checking the oil in his tux! A true mechanic .


I spy with my little eye...





I've been working on painting with light and I really like how this one turned out!


The great get-a-way!!!


Much much more to come!!

I love this! music

Have you guys heard of She and Him
I'm loving the retro style


New idea!

My friend just opened her new Etsy shop! Check it out here
P.S. Would one of my beautiful brides be interested in wearing one of these lovely head pieces this year???

The sun did not shine it was too wet to play, so we sat in the house all that cold, cold, wet day.

Dayton Ohio Senior: Leslie

Leslie was just a doll! One of those girls who are so beautiful and doesn't even know it. I had fun girls!

Leslie loves green so here's my take on incorporating that into her pics


Is she cute or what?

About Me

My photo
Wife, mother, photographer based out of Dayton Ohio. Will travel =) I believe in love. I cry when I see it’s presence in photographs of people I don’t even know. I believe love can be touched with the eyes as they move across the well told story of a photograph. That’s what I want to do… I want to tell love stories with my photographs.
I know Jesus in my heart and through him I know how to change lives. All the beauty I see is because of the stability and inspiration of my home life. Family is so very important to me. They are what makes me complete, my foundation and my encouragement. It is because of them that I know a great love story while looking through a lens.
