Delaware, OH Family Photographer: The "B" Twins - Double the Fun!

Time sure flew by this summer and fall! I cannot believe it was already time for my 6-month session with the "B" twins, Jordan and Cole!! They have grown up so big since I first met them in June for their newborn session.  These two are the most laid-back, easy-going kids I've EVER photographed!!  We were shooting away for almost two hours and I never once heard a complaint from either of them!  Not a peep!!  They are real professional models, I guess!  They looked so adorable in their hats and outfits.  And, if you think one baby in a basket is cute, try squeezing in two!  Double the cuteness!  Enjoy!!




Cole is a happy boy!

Jordan is just way too cute... it should be illegal! :)

Oh my goodness... I have no words for this... :)

So precious... Cole is getting some love from big sis Brooklynne.

The whole family, including mom and dad Steph and Tim.  What a great pic!! 

I thought this looked too cute - Dad has his hands full! :)

Brooklynne is too precious!

And, again... I melt...  Happy Holidays!! :)

Delaware, Ohio Senior Photographer: Jake's Senior Session - Class of 2015!

This weekend, I got to photograph Jake for his senior portraits. You may remember that I took his older brother Josh's senior photos, a few years back.  Jake had made an appearance in a few of those family photos, too!  So, now he is clearly a pro at the modeling thing!  He did a great job and was so agreeable to all of my suggestions!  I think his photos turned out GREAT!  We had fun just posing around their yard and neighborhood.


Right now Jake is enjoying playing high school lacrosse and hopes to go to Illinois Wesleyan for college.  He hopes to play lacrosse there and study pre-med.  Good luck and enjoy your senior year, Jake!!

Great look!!  Love the outfit, the pose, and the trees in the background!

One of my favorites! Looks like it should be on the cover of a CD!

Great pose! :)

Channeling his inner Robert Pattinson (from Twilight)!  :)

This was the response I got when I asked how his parents felt about having both kids out of the house!  Hahaha!  Great pic!  :)

Delaware, Ohio Wedding Photography: Barb & Doug Tie the Knot!

Last month, we were guests at my cousin Barb's wedding to Doug. My aunt and uncle, Rita and Bob, offered to shoot the wedding for them as their gift, and since it was only their second wedding as photographers, I offered to give them some assistance. And, as I was leaving to head out of town for the wedding, I decided to grab my camera gear, too. You know I just couldn't sit still through a wedding without taking a single photo!! I really had a great time giving directions (seems that comes naturally!) and not having the pressure of capturing every moment nor the massive amount of post-processing to do after the wedding. Rita and Bob did an excellent job. In fact, we make a great team! We should all do it again!


So, I had the chance to relax and capture some fun details at the amazing venue - Enchanted Village in Lebanon, Ohio. Enjoy a few of the details of the day.


Keegan and Sophie were literally the most adorable ring bearer and flower girl I've EVER seen!!  (You may recognize them from many, many photo shoots with me in the past!)

The flowers were gorgeous... especially the purple and green together.

Seriously... just too cute!!

Doug was sure grinning when he saw his bride! :)

I love this moment... <3 div="">

Congrats you two!  We are so happy for you! :)

The newlyweds!

I could have photographed the beautiful details all day...

The beautiful bride!

The cake was perfect and super delicious, too!

More details in the reception room... it was ALL green!

The real photographers of the day!  Good thing I was around... they seemed to be taking a lot of pictures of each other! :)  (Just kidding!)

Delaware, Ohio Senior Portrait Photographer: Congrats to Derek - Class of 2015!

It's always refreshing to have a senior session after taking so many infant and toddler photos... they actually smile and look at the camera right when you ask them to! :) This weekend's session with Derek was fun, laid-back, easy, but very COLD!!! We had originally planned to meet on a beautiful fall day in October, but Derek had a sports injury so we had to push back his session or he would have been on crutches in every picture. And, we got in his session just in the nick of time... as snowflakes started to fall. If you're in Central Ohio, you know what the weather has been like since Sunday - snow and sub-zero wind chills! Anyway, Derek was hoping for a "fall look" to his images, and I think we were still able to find the little bit of fall color that was left. We had fun at one of his favorite childhood hangouts - Blue Limestone Park in Delaware. I hope you enjoy! Go Pacers!!!

This is a great shot in both color and black and white!!

This is one of my favorites!

A little fun in the creek...

Got a very nice smile out of him here! :)
