There is something about cuddling with the one you love that makes my heart pang for winter. Ashley + Tyler’s wedding created that same feeling. PLUS they found a venue to encapsulate it all. The Tudor Arms in Cleveland held their entire day from getting ready to bridal portraits to even the reception! Yup, if […]

What do you get when you put together a beautifully confident clan of bridesmaids, a group of sports enthusiast groomsmen, a Cleveland dive bar, and rubber ducky cake toppers? You get Ellen and Mark and their wedding day. That’s what you get. First things first – I love Cleveland and everything it has to offer […]

Infatuation. Remember when you first learned that word? It was probably in some British or English Lit class in 8th grade or even high school. If not, then let me refresh your memory: Infatuation: an intense passion or admiration for someone or something. Welllp, this word continuously popped into my head while capturing this wedding. […]

Welp, since we already had our first example with Wedding Florists, I figured I may as well share a little of how this day is INCREDIBLY difficult without these beautiful creatives. First and foremost, a florist enhances the beauty that your day will naturally bring. They can transform a barren table scape into a beautiful […]

It took me faaar too long to realize how important it is to work together with other vendors during the wedding process. I used to go into a wedding sticking to my own schedule, with the get in and get what I need mentality. Looking back, I am shocked at how little there was on […]

It truly says something about a couple when they can plan a spectacular wedding while living in another state. Major major major props to Lauren + Ryan! Everything from the decor (yes most made by Ryan’s dad!), to the beautifully traditional church for the ceremony, to the bridal party being troopers with our EXTREME summer […]

I am PRETTY certain Leah and I are twins. Haha yes, that is how I’m starting this blog post. We are twins, orr at least sisters from the same weird form of life because WE BASICALLY enjoy all the same things. From yoga, to the same love of TV shows annnnd HP books to EVEN […]

When I posted the first teaser from this wedding I typed the word Fairy Tale into the caption. There was no question or concern over if that was the correct word because everything associated with fairytale and magic and bliss surrounded this entire wedding. Every wedding I’ve captured holds a little bit of magic but […]

I think the photographer – couple relationship is truly key for wedding images to be a success. Aside from all the creativity and technical nitty gritties, the relationship between the person behind the camera and the people in front of it, is important. Many of my couples I know through references, or at least feel […]

These two had the soul to fill a black-and-white photograph. If you don’t know what I mean, don’t worry, I am going to explain. I can’t speak for every photographer, but when I make black and white’s I do it for the purpose of feeling something. Because of this, any image that is a black […]
