Jessica & Walter at Cox Arboretum

Jessica and Walter lucked out and had the perfect outdoor September wedding...beautiful sunny sky and the  perfect fall temperature.  Jessica and Walter are a sweet, fun-loving couple and you can just feel the love they have for each other when you see them interact together.  I just love the top image, which is from their 'First Glimpse.'  You can just see them savoring the moment!

We had fun photographing Jessica, Walter and their wedding party in all of our favorite spots at the park.  Jessica had prepared for some 'nature walking' by wearing practical shoes for the photographs before switching over to something prettier for the ceremony and reception.  Many brides forget this and then struggle with their heels sinking in the grass all day so if you're a future bride planning your day be sure to make a mental note!

Their outdoor ceremony was so pretty with the setting sun wrapping everyone in golden light.  The rose covered arbor made for a gorgeous backdrop.  Guests showered the new Mr. and Mrs. with rose petals as they recessed up the isle making for a fun photo opp!  Congrats to the newlyweds!

Rachel 2013

We were like 'kids in a candy shop' photographing Rachel's senior session.  We divided her session into two parts 'urban' and 'vintage/natural' to capture the many sides of Rachel's bubbly fun personality.  Being able to use the warehouse space from a friend of the family was a fun bonus for us too!  Rachel is certainly a mover and a shaker and is sure to make her mark on the world.  Thank you for sharing this momentous time in your life with us!

Krista and Jonathan's Wedding

Krista and Jonathan had their hearts set on an outdoor wedding and didn't let the leftovers of Hurricane Isaac alter their plans.  Making the best of a bad weather forecast they went with a 'When life gives you lemons you make lemonade' mentality. 

We picked covered photography locations so that we could duck out of the rain when it came and added umbrella photo props for both fun and coverage.  And when the rain wouldn't let up at their scheduled ceremony time, a little patience and fifteen minutes of waiting let the show go on. 

Eventually the sky's parted and their guests were able to dine and dance with a spectacular sunset as their backdrop.  Krista and Jonathan's optimism and ability to 'go with the flow' allowed them to have their dream wedding despite an uncooperative forecast...something that every bridal couple should take to heart.

Congrats to such a lovely couple and thank you for sharing such a special day with us!  Feel free to check out the studio's Facebook page to view and tag more images from Krista and Jonathan's event.

Kriston & Casey at Normandy Church

Wow!  What can we say about Kriston and Casey's quaint, beautiful wedding at the historic Normandy Church!?  It was perfectly intimate with many of their closest friends and family surrounding them in the castle-like setting of Normandy.

Some of you probably recognize Kriston since you may have bought your own wedding gown from Kriston at Lillian's Bridal.  Just about everyone in our own family has purchased their wedding gown at Lillian's, and how she could ever make up her mind with that many beautiful gowns to choose from I'll never know!

Kriston and Casey could not be happier or cuter as a couple.  Their ceremony was tearful, joyful and heartfelt.  Their guests enjoyed a desert reception under the stars, dining by candlelight and listening to the mellow sounds of a jazz trio...such a lovely evening!  We couldn't be happier for you both and wish you much love and joy in the years to come!

Sarah & Trent's Wedding

Sarah and Trent had made many plans for their wedding day, but none of them had included a Plan B for dealing with the remnants of Hurricane Isaac. However, luck was shining down upon them and we were able to get all of their photographs done before the rain eventually came.

 

We had a great time photographing them along with their fun wedding party all around downtown Cincinnati before heading to the ceremony.  The ceremony was held at the chuch where Trent's mother works so they were surrounded by many people who care for them deeply. 

 

Aside from all the busy wedding plans, Sarah and Trent will be closing on a house the week after the wedding so a honeymoon will have to wait...at least for a little bit.  Congrats to the happy newlyweds as well as Welcome Home!
