Marissa and Mike’s intimate Sapphire Creek Winery Wedding spoke directly to my summer heart! This winery holds one of the classiest, and hands down coolest, atmospheres for wedding venues in Chagrin. First, if you just look at the building structure, with its large, open windows and high ceilings. Then follow the grounds and see a […]

A Fairlawn Country Club Wedding makes my heart pound with excitement. I’m not sure if it’s because I grew up a few streets away, or if it’s because the outside architecture is a photographer’s dream! First, any venue that has it all right there is worth visiting when it comes to planning a wedding. They […]

Sarah and Mark’s backyard Tudor House Wedding on Portage Lakes, although the perfect “lake-side celebration”, was not what they originally planned. This couple initially had their nuptials planned for Columbus. After a little pandemic, change of venue, the addition of a family member (you better scroll to see their rockstar kid), and a few other […]

Kelly and Curt began planning their Akron wedding in 2019 after they were engaged at Firestone Country Club. When the pandemic hit, they postponed their day to 2021.

Here we go five actual office items I cannot live without! iMac 27″ with a trackpad. This was a game-changer. Editing on a laptop is one thing, but having a larger screen to see all those tiny details is another. The 27″ was a no-brainer once my business was ready for it. Also, since I […]

First let me paint this wedding for you. It’s a summer day. There is a little breeze blowing through the air. The ceremony is amongst greenery that is lush and vibrant with life. Everyone there is giddy with excitement. You can eat pies and s’mores with a glass of delicious wine. The reception is outdoors, […]

The moment Jaz and Charlie inquired, I fell in love. The words they used to not only describe my work, but also their relationship still hit me to this day. They proved to create a wedding that was “uniquely them”. It had open summer fields, colorful flowers, and a tent with twinkle lights galore! Heartland […]

Lauren and Mike’s wedding day in Solon was pure delight! Everything about their sunny day in June made for one magical memory. Surrounded by family and friends, they spent their day full of so much joy! When planning their photos Lauren asked for rolling green hills. As I drove home from our walkthrough I passed […]

I expected it, but not on the day it happened. To understand this, you must first understand Woody. When Woody gets excited about something, he immediately tells people about it. This means he told me the moment he asked my mom and Grams for permission (3 months prior to his proposal date). Originally I thought, […]
