The best of weddings, engagements, and portraits from the best year for this little business yet. I love my couples and clients with my whole soul and it’s only because of them that I get to do what I do. I couldn’t be more thankful for each and every person who has allowed me to document their best moments this year.

My heart is so thankful + so full. So wonderfully full.

My goodness – I love these two. You can tell that they’re not only the sweetest couple, but the best of friends. Danielle and Aaron are the most genuine – in their love for each other and in their love for the Lord. Their relationship is a beautiful celebration of the faithfulness of Christ in their lives and you can tell that sacrifice and faithfulness are the foundation of their love.

My session with Brooke and Seth was just so much fun. We met up in the German Village district and spent the evening laughing as we walked the streets of downtown Columbus. They showed me their victory handshake they do when Ohio State scores a touchdown, Seth made Brooke twirl him in the middle of the sidewalk, and I definitely fangirled over them enough that Seth was rolling his eyes at me pretty consistently by the end of their session.

Taryn found me through instagram after I shot Mackenzie and Josiah’s stunning Cleveland Peacock Ridge Wedding this summer. She and her fiancé, Dan, were planning their Cleveland wedding for the fall of 2019, and after we chatted on FaceTime, I knew we were going to be fast friends. Even though we hit it off well on the phone, nothing prepared me for just how much fun we would have at their engagement session.

From our time at the willow trees lining the road by Taryn’s aunt’s house to the end of our session on the shore of Lake Erie, Taryn, Dan, and I laughed the entire time. Their chemistry was natural and effortless. They ran, played, kissed, and danced while the sun set over the water. The night was perfect and beautiful, as were these two. I can’t even wait for next fall and their October wedding day.

Hanna + Jonny are one of the most gentle, genuine couples I have ever met. They danced together in the wildflowers as the sun set in John Bryan State Park, a local nature reserve in Yellow Springs, Ohio, outside of Dayton. They recently got engaged after dating for years, and their outdoor engagements are warm, playful, and sweet – just like the two of them. I loved spending the evening capturing their precious love for each other. Congratulations Hanna and Jonny!

Truly, there’s not much I can say about these pictures – the photos themselves say it all. 

Dennis and Deb have been married for forty-six years. Forty. Six. Years. Truly, they are #goals. As you can see from their precious photos, they are still just as in love with life and with each other as they were the day they said “I do.” Forty six years of laughter and love are evident all through these images, from the laugh lines as a result of years of joy to the hands still wearing the rings promising a commitment to always. Their long legacy of love speaks for itself. 

The next stop on this summer’s jam-packed travel itinerary is my home, Dallas, but we absolutely had to stop and explore a few new places along the way. As we passed through Georgia, my best-friend-turned-second-shooter, Ari, and I made a pit stop at Condesa Coffee in downtown Atlanta.

Goodness gracious, I’m convinced these two are secretly models. Mackenzie was my freshman year roommate, and I couldn’t be more excited for her to marry the man of her dreams in August. Josiah treasures her so very deeply, and you can tell in the way he speaks of her, looks at her, and sacrificially cares for her.
