Beautiful Wedding in North Ridgeville

Here is a teaser from a wedding that I did a few weeks back. Ashley and Kyle. Two beautiful people, very much in love. I got the privilege to share in the celebration of their special day. We had a lot of fun together! I mean, how many bride and grooms do you know who are cool enough to go to Friendly's to share a milkshake together for their pictures? It was where they met so many years back. How sweet is that? After that, we went over to Willoway Nursery. (just so you know, it's a photographer's dream **thank you David Paul)
And could I ask for a more beautiful bride, or a more handsome groom! Making my job easy. I won't lie. :)
Here are some of my favorites to tease them while they wait for the rest to be done. Enjoy!

Sunny Seattle

So how often does the sun shine in Seattle? Just when I come to town. Mostly. Well it sure did the day I went out to shoot Amanda & Q's engagement photos. You want to talk about a fun shoot!! I was in heaven. I'm pretty sure the beautiful couple had some fun too.  I was in a new city, downtown at Pike Place Market, and there was so much going on! So much variety to work with. That part of the city is just alive with color & texture & sound ... & even smell. I couldn't stay by the fish market too long. 
Besides the fish market smell, I mean, we walked one square block and got all of these amazing pictures! I really had a blast photographing these too. I'm so happy with how the pictures came out. I just keep getting better & better. OK, ok. I'll stop. 
I'll just show some of my favorites:

Q just knocks you away with that gaze! And Amanda, beautiful Amanda. So Pretty. I can't wait. Hopefully I get to photograph them down in Jamaica for their special day.  I'm getting into this destination thing. Can't stop me now!

Dana & Rod

Wow. Time can fly. This wedding was almost a month ago now.
Here are some of my favorites from an absolutely wonderful couple I had the privilege to photograph last month. I was working for the incredible Jessica Vidmar on this one. It was a perfect day on Cinco de Mayo (hence the sombreros) at some gorgeous locations. This also was the first time I got to photograph at the Pine Ridge Country Club. That place is gorgeous! All that light pouring into that room. I was in heaven. 
The long and short of it is that it was a beautiful day, with beautiful people. I was happy to be a part of it all!

Brandon and Amber Engagement

So I know I haven’t blogged in a while. But I’m still here. And I just did one of my most favorite photo shoots of all time.

Two of the most beautiful people I know, in an absolutely gorgeous location. I mean, disclaimer here, these are two of my best friends. I love them. I have shared many, many special moments with these two wonderful people. And in just about a month, we will all fly across the country to witness their marriage in front of Mt. Reiner.

I couldn’t be happier sharing such a special day with these two amazing people.

I was doing my best to capture a piece of their intense love for one another with their engagement pictures at Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The day was perfect. I was on my game. And my camera was on fire. And these two lit up the forest. 

enjoy. feel free to check out the slideshow below.
