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!

They say that all you need is love. . . and these two have love in abundance. My heart kept melting during their session (and then all over again as I was editing) because the way they simply adore and cherish each other is so incredibly evident in their eyes. Nothing about the chemistry you see in these pictures was contrived; Michaela and Stephen simply loved just being together (and playing together – they did a lot of that too). Michaela and I met when we were randomly assigned to sit next to each other at a school banquet two years ago, and I couldn’t have been more excited when she reached out asking me to take their engagement photos. These sweet friends are currently dating long-distance as they plan their wedding for next summer: she lives in Florida and he lives in Ohio. When Michaela came into town for the weekend, we jumped on the opportunity to capture their love story in the place that brought them together.
