Angela and Nick - Engagement Session

I had a lot of fun with Angela and Nick today - we met at Grand Pacific Junction in Olmsted Falls - one of my favorite places to shoot! The weather was fantastic - we've had a streak of good weekend weather here in the Cleveland area - let's hope it continues! Angela and Nick are easy going and so friendly. I'm really looking forward to their wedding!

Kimberly and Bill - Part Deux

I finished editing Kim and Bill's 5/15 wedding pictures and came across a few more that I'd like to share -- these are all about Kim in her beautiful bridal glory :-)

This one is just plain fierce...


and more of the lovely Kim...





And one of Bill so he doesn't feel left out...

Clayton's Senior Portrait Session

I got to spend a little time earlier this week with the nicest family through a referral by one of my favorite brides -- Clayton Sr. called me to schedule a portrait session for his son who is graduating this year. We met up at Lakeview Park in Lorain on a beautiful sunny day earlier this week. I got to meet mom and dad, his adorable nephew, Chris and Chris' mom. I enjoyed every moment of the session - what a great way to spend a wonderful evening on the beach! Here are a few of my favorites:

Kimberly and Bill's Nautical Wedding, 5/15/09

Kim and Bill got married on a beaauuuutiful Friday morning on the Nautica Cruise ship. The weather couldn't have been more perfect and the cruise was such a pleasant experience! Kim and Bill, blended and extended family - are all such beautiful people. They also knew how to have fun - lots of laughter and good conversation and a even a little hijinx (yes I said hijinx). Kim looked like a princess in her dress, and there was enough of a breeze that made her long veil a dream to photograph. Listed below are some of the pictures that I noticed my first go around. I'm sure I'll be posting more, though, since there are so many that I like!

Nicole and Bob's Wedding

Nicole and Bob got married yesterday at Sun Valley Party Center in Aurora. What a beautiful setting for a wedding! We kept our fingers crossed that there would be no rain, since their ceremony was scheduled to be in the outdoor gazebo, and wishes were granted, as not only didn't it rain, but it was quite comfortable outside! Here are just a few that popped out at me at first glance as I went through the pictures. I really have to say that Nicole is beautiful, inside and out and Bob is a genuine, down to earth and friendly guy. It was truly a pleasure to photograph their wedding!

Web Gallery Samples

Recently, to make it easier for my clients to view/share photos with their family and friends, I began to create web gallery pages to be a "home" for all their pictures. This personal webpage will include the engagement session, the wedding gallery and the wedding album and any other link they may want to include.
