Julie & John - Part 1 {cincinnati wedding photographer}

Spring time in Cincinnati can be very unpredictable...one second it is gorgeous outside and the next it's storming. The forecast for Julie & John's Friday wedding was not looking great, they were calling for rain all day off and on. Yet, the day of the wedding it was nothing more than a few clouds...so we ventured outside for the couple's much wanted outdoor wedding pictures. The weather looked as though it was going to hold out for us, even when it sprinkled rain lightly it was only for a couple of minutes...so we boldly went to our second outdoor location...The Purple People Bridge...we walked out and in less than 10 minutes got caught in one of the heaviest rains of the year! We were all drenched...The poor guys in a valiant effort to keep the girls dry got the worst of it...But luckily they kept the bride's hair and makeup dry! Did I mention that all of this was before the ceremony?

So this could have put a real damper on the day...but everyone dried out (thank goodness for short dresses and an organza wedding dress!) and looked as though nothing had ever happened...This couple was so happy and in love that literally nothing brought them down...not even a down pour :) All in all I hope it was worth it - they got their awesome outdoor shots and a good story to tell their kids!

I'm breaking this Wedding post into 2 Parts because I just could narrow down the ones I wanted to share! Here are some sneak peaks...



Bridal makeup was FABULOUS - applied by Chenese Bean Artistry.








This couple just radiates LOVE - They were so cute together when they first saw each other...They were just so focused on each other...I LOVE it!














Julie's Dad's reaction was priceless... So sweet!






Thank goodness for tall groomsmen...a little sprinkle wasn't going to slow us down :)
