STEPHANIE and ROB--Engagement Photos

In my attempt to play catch up on the blog--here is a sneak peek from Stephanie and Rob's engagement session in Youngstown last weekend. It's very strange--I had never actually been to Youngstown until a few weeks ago when we did our first engagement session up there. Now in just a few weeks time, we traveled back up there for another engagement session. Both couples are referrals from couples whose weddings we have done in Columbus(different couples).

Rob is the brother of one of our couples from this year. He gave what was the best toast/speech at his brother Brian's wedding that I have ever heard. I love getting to work again with a group of family and friends who we had such a wonderful experience with the first time around.

For Stephanie and Rob's engagement session, we again went to the Butler Museum of Modern Art. I've already become a huge fan of this place! After the Butler, we headed to Mill Creek Park to Stephanie's favorite Silver Bridge. I had a great time working with Stephanie and Rob and look forward to their wedding in April!

VIVIANNE-Senior photos

Here is a sneak peek from Vivianne's senior photo session. It was a beautiful late autumn day--gotta love the warm November days! Vivianne wanted to do most of her photos outdoors and I was more than happy to oblige. She really amused me though, she has a major fear of insects--and there were a lot out on our beautiful day. I flipped out with her on the huge one that we encountered--but even the little ones got her going--and so did the trees. I probably spent as much of our session laughing as I did shooting--sorry--but I did have a great time--and think we got some wonderful photos!

EMILY-Teays Valley Senior photography

Here is a sneak peek from Emily's senior session. Emily's sister was one of my seniors a few years back--so it was great to continue the family tradition! I had a great time working with Emily and her parents! We started out at my place and made our way into Downtown Lancaster. We hit both the Georgian and the Decorative Arts Center of Ohio--two of my favorite downtown spots. We also made sure to include her dog into lots of photos. It was a fantastic day--and we were loving the late autumn weather!

KENLEY and KELTON-Kids Photo Session

Here are a few photos from Kenley and Kelton's photo session. Their session was a first for me. I have never had a session that included chickens. They raise and show chickens and goats at the fair--so it was a regular fun-filled farm. We managed to include animals and the last of the fall foliage as we made our way around their property--it was a very cool session! We did photos with both some of the chickens and some goats--and of course some of just the kids too.

CAITLIN-Bloom Carroll Senior

Here are the first of many photos from Caitlin's senior session. We met up at the Fairfield County Fairgrounds to get some photos with her horse. From there we headed to downtown Lancaster, Alley Park and ended up back at my place for a few studio photos and a last few outdoor photos with some sweet light. I had a great time with Caitlin and her parents and think we definitely covered some territory--but it was so worth it!
