YOU GUYS!! Not only is Jenna one of my favorite people and best friends, but she is also one of the funnest people to get in front of my camera. She is so lively and energetic, the camera loves her! I’ve photographed Jenna and Ben a few times and each is better than the last. […]

Becca and Skylar drove from Dayton, OH to spend their evening with me for their engagement photos and we had a blast! Of course, they brought their cute pup, Sevvy, with them!! Not only did we have the dreamiest of light, but perfect cool fall weather.

I crashed Jamie and her I do Crew’s evening to catch a mini shoot on their way to dinner at Ruth Chris. The group was out celebrating Jamie’s last fling before the bling as she’s getting married this October. We had such a great shoot in such little time. The sun even worked in our […]

After months of rescheduling, thanks Covid! We finally got to get together for Maureen and Alex’s engagement session. These two chose Butler Campus, where Alex attended college, for their location. Lucky for us, we mostly had the campus and park to ourselves. We took full advantage of the empty campus and park chasing the beautiful, […]

Going to go ahead and start this by saying these two are troopers! Heather and Steven totally rocked their session despite being poured on multiple times. Together we checked the weather multiple times-yet, we still got rained on. Thanks lake effect! Regardless, this session was so beautiful and I am so happy we were able […]

Wow! Talk about beautiful light! Sarah and Jacob met me around sunset at Holliday Park to photograph their engagement photos. These two often visit this park with their pup, Winston, and thought it would be the perfect spot for their session. Holliday Park is usually SO busy this time of day with photographers, but we […]

After months of chatting back and forth (thanks, corona!), I finally got to meet Justin and Caitlyn this week for their engagement photos. We decided on Coxhall Gardens as these two had originally planned to wed on the grounds under Caitlyn’s favorite tree, a weeping willow. Although plans may have changed, we couldn’t be anymore […]

Nikki and John were visiting Paris from New York / California. They split their residency bicoastal and still find time to travel. Absolutely amazing. We were so lucky to catch them on their trip to France and photograph their engagement. We bonded over the French food and dogs, of course. These two were a delight […]

I met with Catherine and Nick one chilly and rainy morning outside Musèe du Louvre in Paris. The two braved the cold, wind, and rain to get cuddly in front of my camera and I’m so thankful. Catherine was visiting from Boston and Nick had met her from studying abroad in Germany. I was lucky […]

Let me start by saying, I think that this is one of my favorite travel stories to date. After hiking uphill for a few miles, then up several flights of stairs to reach the basilica, I noticed Angela and Mike. The two were trying to selfie with the gorgeous view in the background on their […]
