KRISTIN and ERIC-Wedding

























Kristin and Eric's wedding day was a day filled with lots of beautiful touches. From the red accents on everything from Kristin's dress & the flowers to the reception with red decor and the accents on the cake. It was also a day filled with joy and it was shared with all of their family and friends. Eric and Kristin have been together since high school and this day was anticipated by so many--and Kristin and Eric didn't let them down. The ceremony was very beautiful and personal and gave all of the guests a bit of insight into Kristin and Eric's long relationship(for those who haven't known them throughout the relationship).

After the ceremony, we took some photos on the beautiful grounds of their church and then it was off for dinner and the party at one of the most unique venues in Columbus, The Valley Dale Ballroom. The Valley Dale is a beautiful, old, historic ballroom(in case you're not familiar) and has been updated, yet keeps it's original beauty and charm. After dinner, the party started and didn't miss a beat. What a beautiful day--I hope all of Kristin and Eric's days will be filled with as much love and beauty as their wedding day!

AVA and MADDIE










For those of you who know me, you know that I have twin boys who keep me on the go! They are so much fun and I wouldn't trade them for anything...but....I love getting to work with little girls. They are such a contrast to what I'm used to. Maddie and Ava were no exception! We did have to reschedule part of the session because someone was tired and wasn't feeling cooperative the first day. On the second round, they were so much fun. I went to their home this time(which usually makes for more comfortable little ones) and took some fun props. We played on the ladder with the apples and climbed the apple tree, played on their swingset, picked some flowers and other fun things--and it all resulted in some awesome, fun photos!

BEVERLY and WILLIAM-Wedding



























Beverly and William were an absolute joy to work with. Their mutual love of music brought them together and they are a perfect match! Beverly is originally from Lancaster, but has lived in the Cleveland area for a number of years, and is where she and William met. They decided to get married in Lancaster and I'm happy that they did! Their wedding was at St. Paul's which is Beverly's home church. After a beautiful ceremony at the perfect time of day with sunlight streaming though the stained glass windows, they were off to Henry Manor for their reception. It was a wonderful, intimate reception with them having the chance to mingle with friends and family. If you've never experienced an event at Henry Manor, you're definitely missing out! It is one of the most beautiful locations in Lancaster, and their food is some of the best in town!

After the Lancaster event, they were hosting another reception back home in Cleveland. I definitely wish them the best. It was a pleasure!
