Rachel & Mark {cincinnati wedding photographer}

Rachel & Mark's ceremony took place at Oxford Community Arts Center in Oxford, Ohio. It was a beautiful venue, being the original Oxford College for Women, with a large open room with gorgeous light and art deco style Windows and features.

We started out at with the girls getting ready at the Miami Inn where the talented Karina was working her makeup magic and then headed to Upham's Arch at Miami University for the couple's first meeting. The couple was trusting enough to take a ride with me to do some pictures at another location before returning to do bridal party pictures at Upham's. Then we finished up at the Formal Gardens.

In 2 short hours we got so many beautiful images to document their day! Then after the short ceremony, and a quick room change, the lovely reception was under way!

Thank you Rachel & Mark for letting me be a part of your special day...Here are some sneak peaks for you!










The first time they saw each other...

Happy 4th of July! {cincinnati baby photographer}

Hope you all have a Happy 4th of July! Can't believe my baby will be 6 months this week! I wanted to do some outdoor pictures of Chase for his 6 months session since he is sitting up pretty well on his own now. While driving around scouting out new locations, I stopped here, on the side of the road for an impromptu session with the babe... I added Red,White, & Blue, to make it festive...I will try to fit in his regular 6 months session next week...but for now here are a few of Baby Boy!

Be safe & have fun & enjoy the 4th!:)

Jackson {baby photographer in cincinnati}

I can't believe Jackson Perry is ONE years old! I met baby Jackson when he was still in mommy's tummy and have enjoyed watching him grow into a sweet baby boy. Mom was able to use her work connections to get us into the Red's Great American Ballpark for Jackson's One Year Pictures. We has fun shooting in the Red's Dugout, on the Field (don't worry Red's Groundskeeper - we did NOT touch the grass!) and in the stadium seats...Here are some of my favorite's of Jackson's One Year Pictures!

Starting in the team dugout...




How cute is his little outfit????



He is so little in that BIG stadium!





So cute in the seats...he was'nt heavy enough to hold it down, so it kept "swallowing" him:)

Alivia {cincinnati baby photographer}

Alivia and Big Sister Addison came in for Alivia's 4 months session last week. We got some cute ones of the girls together and each separately. And I learned something as well...Don't put on the frilly skirts until the end of the session! Poor Mom and Dad had some outfits in mind but Addison wasn't getting out of the hot pink skirts, so we just went with it:) That's ok, we had fun! Here are some sneak peaks of Alivia and Addison.
