They embraced the magic of a snowy ground, twinkle lights and early dusk. I loved be a part of this day!

Who knew Ohio could be so cool? (haha, I kid!) but seriously loved being a part of Jessica and Matthew’s day. Always such an honor for someone from high school to hire me and trust me to capture their love, and this day was no exception. makeup: katie painter venue: The Venues Toledo wedding planner: […]

It’s always so hard to put into words how my job makes me feel. Looking through each of these galleries brought a giant smile to my face. To capture maternity sessions and then months later a newborn session is such a joy to witness. 2021 was a year unlike any other – it tested me. It was hard but rewarding. Extra busy because of 2020 reschedules and I shot 15 weddings just in October and November alone. Also had to learn how to run my business while caring for my toddler, so there was many teaching moments this year. But as always, I am so greatful for my clients who show up and make me this busy. I’ll never take capturing these milestones for granted and hope this post even does an ounce of justice to who I had in front of my camera this year. THANK YOU for making 2021 a great one!

This was one of those romantic, rainy, wedding days. The kind where it drizzles all day and leaves you just enough time for some dreamy portraits before the sun sets.

Meagan + Billy hired me way back in 2018 for their 2020 wedding. Of course we all know how last year played out, but honestly it was wonderful getting to photograph them more than once these past few years.

2020. What a year. I could go on and on about how hard this year has been for myself, fellow business owners and just everyone in general BUT I will chose to show the silver lining.

I overheard Tyler say to Melayna while they were dancing “you look so beautiful, I want to show you off” and my heart just melted.
