Falling behind!
It's fall and I've officially fallen behind. After my busiest summer yet, I've been playing major catch up!
I've shot a few more amazing, gorgeous late summer and autumn weddings and will post a few pictures below. Brides and grooms who are still waiting for proofs, have patience and faith, my fingers are working fast!
Family portrait sessions for the holidays have been keeping me busy as well. Call for a November weekend to get your images in time for the holiday season!

Julie & Thad, A Love Story
Julie & Thad were married on Saturday at Brookshire in Delaware, Ohio. We met way back in December and it was love at first sight. Well, they were already in love, obviously, but I knew right away that I wanted to shoot their wedding. They felt the same way (I think!) because they called me up later that night to book me! Awesome.The matron of honor, Julie's sister, wrote a storybook to tell us all about Juliet and Thad-eo's love story - truly a fairy tale.
Yesterday was perfect, the dresses from Alan Ray Bridal, the flowers from Reno's, Mike from Team DJ, Brookshire, and the family style dinner provided by Two Caterers.
Don't forget the rivalry between the Bride & Groom - who wore Duke blue shoes and Tar Heels blue socks. Watch the whole slide show and you'll really see true love.

The party was awesome, topped off by some really fantastic dancing to early 90's tunes later in the reception. I was so pleased that Julie & Thad asked me to be their phootgrapher because it was so easy to see how happy they are and will be.
Many thanks and congratulations!
Enjoy the slideshow.

Theresa & Andy...married!
Last weekend, I was there to see Theresa and Andy get married. The wedding took place at St. Patrick's church, downtown...arguably the most beautiful church in which I've had the pleasure of shooting a wedding!The flowers...amazing, Bloomtastic again. The wedding gown, perfect from Saks and the bridesmaids dresses, outrageous! Theresa's mom made them and I loved every inch!
Andy kept me laughing before the ceremony being just a little camera shy, but once the festivities got started, we had a ball.
Germania, in the Brewery District, for the reception where we enjoyed music and great food. Everybody took their turn on the dance floor and several heartfelt toasts came the way of the happy couple.
Every time I spied Theresa and Andy they were gazing...clearly made for each other. Best of luck for the marriage and thanks for having me there! (Thanks to Kelly too for the referral!!)

Jenifer & Jerry got married!
August is flying by so fast, I can hardly keep up. Apologies to the couples who have yet to see thier blog post and slide show.Jenifer & Jerry called me while I was in Phoenix over the New Year and we played lots of phone tag to get settled on their wedding date of August 8. Once I met them, I know it was going to be a special wedding.
Jen's dad had a special gift for her before the ceremony and I had time to get to know their families and friends as we prepared. Her dress was perfect and the surprise necklace from Dad and earrings from Jerry looked like they were made for the day.
Their ceremony took place at the Columbus Baptist Temple and they had a wonderful pastor sign the ceremony. Flowers from Bloomtastic were spectacular! From there we went on to Ohio Stadium and had SO much fun pretending to be the Buckeyes!!
On to the Haimerl Center for the reception. It was stunning with all of the work that the families put into decorating it. We danced the night away and had a really great time.
Jen & Jerry are two very special people who clearly will spend many days ahead happy and caring for each other. It was an honor and a pleasure to photograph their wedding. Here's the slideshow!

Pam and Jim get married.
On Saturday, Aug 1, I was fortunate enough to celebrate Pam & Jim's wedding with them. Yes, they were as cute as their namesakes on The Office!We started at Magic Cuts in Hilliard with Pam and her bridesmaids. Had a run in with a not-so-cheerful McDonald's manager and then on to St. Margaret of Cortona for preparations and the ceremony. Pam's dress, from Wendy's Bridal, was perfect for the occasion. St. Margaret's is one beautiful church...when the light shone in during the ceremony it was like God himself was offering a blessing on Pam and Jim's marriage!!
Afterward we travelled up to Westerville to visit Pam's dad, who was unable to make it to the ceremony, then with a stroke of incredible luck we got to the Horseshoe and another wedding had cancelled their plans to go on the field, so we got to take their spot! It was awesome. There is nothing like being on the ground floor of Ohio Stadium with some true Buckeyes!! Many thanks to the limo company for getting us all over town.
On to the University Plaza hotel for a fun filled reception. The flowers, from Hilliard Floral Design, were gorgeous and held up perfectly through the whole day! The cake, from Our Cupcakery, was perfect as was the groom's cake from the night before. The DJ, Byron from Buckeye Entertainment, kept the dance floor moving all night! In fact, we even stayed later than planned because we were having so much fun!
All in all, a perfect day for these two great people. Thanks again for having me be a part of your day!!

Jennifer & Nick are Married!
This weekend I was lucky enough to join Nick & Jennifer as they celebrated their marriage at St. John's Church in downtown Columbus. As luck would have it, a storm brought Jennifer to Ohio and a storm was what started the day. Luckily the storm passed and the wedding went on in perfect weather...just like the luck that brought them together.After the ceremony, thanks to some more of that luck, we made it over to Ohio Stadium and into the locker room for some awesome "team" pictures of the bridal party.
Finally on to the University Plaza hotel for dinner and dancing...and dance they did. Everyone was on the dance floor and even Jen's grandma made it on to really "cut a rug!" A fun and lucky wedding from start to finish and a huge thank you to the bride and groom for including me in this day!!

Finally...Katie & Brian
Finally was the word that suited Katie & Brian's wedding...having met 7 years ago in their sophomore year Spanish class, everyone was so happy that they were FINALLY getting married.So appropriate, I suppose, that I had some technical difficulties getting their slide show posted and therefore I FINALLY got it up. My apologies to Katie, Brian and their friends and and family who were anxious to see the images.
Katie, Brian & I met all the way back in December at a Starbucks where we talked about their summer wedding at St. Brenden's church in Hilliard. They told me about meeting in Spanish class and warmed my heart with the tale of marrying their high school sweetheart.
The wedding was perfect from Katie finding her dress after the saleswoman told her it was sold out to Brian's brother offering quite possibly the funniest best man's toast that I've ever heard to the SAME sweet woman cutting their cake who had cut Katie's parents' wedding cake years before! The staff at the Clintonville Women's Club was great and it was an excellent reception spot where Katie & Brian got to set up their Wii for friends and family to enjoy when they weren't dancing (which was not often!)
Many thanks to everyone and most especially Katie & Brian for having me be a part of their day!

At Last...Brenda & Nathan
Saturday started at the Laura Gregory Salon where Brenda and the girls had their hair done. On to the beautiful Our Lady of Victory in Grandview Heights for a wonderful Catholic ceremony, done by the Deacon who was presiding over his 2nd wedding! He had wonderful words of advice for Brenda and Nathan and truly understood the vows he helped them to make.The flowers were pink and cream roses, perfectly prepared by Connells Maple Lee Flowers, matched perfectly with the dresses from David's.
We braved the rain to head downtown where we got some beautiful images near the Santa Maria and then over to the Columbus Athanaeum for an awesome reception. Hands down, the best part BESIDES watching Brenda and Nathan "make eyes" at each other all night...easily The Hoodoo Soul Band!
Many thanks to Brenda and Nathan for having me there and to God for slowing the rain so we could get some beautiful pictures!

Going to the chapel and we're going to get married...
Sarah & Jason's big day was on Saturday! I met Sarah and her mom just a few months back and was so looking forward to this day. Sarah had planned a wedding that had a throwback feel to the 1940's and I just loved every minute of it.We started the day at Dominic & Co. where Christine and Tammy took care of Sarah's hair and nails. Christine and Sarah had been discussing her wedding 'do for the last 10 years at hair appointments...long before Jason was in the picture, so it was perfect! After Sarah's ring tone announced that she' was "going to the chapel", we stopped by her mom's house to pick up her beautiful dress from David's Bridal.
Then on to St. Timothy where we got to check out the flowers, done by DeSantis Floral. They got the peonies just right! Candy, from EyeCandy Cosmetics, made Sarah, her mom, Sue and Erin, the maid of honor look perfect!
On to the party with Fermata Music for the 40's inspried music, think Sinatra and jazz. The OSU golf club's courterous staff did a terrific job and VIP Photo Booths had a booth set up for Sarah & Jason's guests to leave a memento in lieu of a traditional guest book.
It was a great night, but most of all, it was so obvious that Sarah and Jason were meant to be. They barely looked away from each other all night. Thank you so much to you and all of your friends and family (especially my new BFF, Erin!). It was an honor to be a part of your day!
Enjoy the slide show.
