So many different factors have the opportunity to define a wedding day. Maybe it’s the weather – a freak snowstorm threatening to keep everyone off the roads. It could be a late cake delivery, or the wrong color flowers. But most often it’s the sweeter things – like a dad healthy enough to walk his…
The morning I walked into Savana + Nate’s adorable home to begin photographing their wedding day, I felt like I belonged there. Savana has this wonderful way of making everyone feel welcome. As I’m sure you’ve heard me mention, I always think of a wedding day in terms of how it makes me feel. Throughout…
You know that feeling when a song can take you right back to your first slow dance? Or you get a whiff of that distantly familiar perfume your grandma always wore? I’m such a believer in the relation of seemingly minute details to the nostalgia it can later bring. When I photograph your wedding, I want…
Every wedding feels different. I don’t mean that it looks different – dresses, colors, venues. I’m talking about how it feels. How it makes your guests feel, your bridal party feel, and specifically how it feels to me. Some weddings feel like a scavenger hunt – going from place to place and checking locations, shots, and…
2017 was a completely formative year for both me and my business. I began the year excited to meet new people, and create work that inspires me, but I was admittedly exhausted. I was still trying to catch up from a busy autumn season both with weddings and with my day job. I had such…
When I begin asking most of my couples about the wedding they’re planning, I hear a lot about the colors they’ll use throughout their decor, or the cake they’re so excited to eat. I love wedding details, and I’m always so excited to see their vision come to life. But I often wonder if these…
“I’ve seen it come back, back, back and forth. You hit the nail right on top of the head. I know you’ve seen it all before. But when it looks you in the eyes, it ain’t nothin’ you could say but that’s love.” Bride’s Dress // La Blanca Bridal Boutique Makeup // Moliscious Hair Stylist…
“Like a river flows so surely to the sea, Oh my darling so it goes, some things are meant to be. So won’t you please just take my hand, and take my whole life too. ‘Cause I can’t help falling in love, in love with you.”
Shortly after a couple books me for their wedding, I send out a little questionnaire asking some questions about who they are, how they met, and all the steps that brought them to their engagement. Because Eva & Eric aren’t local to Ohio, their answers were the first things I learned about them. When I…
“& the way you move, I won’t close my eyes. Cause it takes a man to live, but it takes a woman to make him compromise. Be in my eyes Be in my heart Be in my eyes Be in my heart” A big thanks to my second shooter, Marina. Some of these images are hers….
I remember as a child when I would visit a friend’s house for the first time, I would always take a second to close my eyes and experience what their house “felt like.” I’d take in all the smells and absorb whatever vibes the room was giving off and from then on, when I’d think…
I consider each wedding I photograph to be such a privilege, but when one of those weddings involves two people I already love, the feelings run so much deeper. I met both Josh and Taylor my freshman year of college. Taylor and I had been assigned to the same dorm and I met Josh while participating in those new…
An absolutely lovely ceremony, reception, and couple❤️The pics are beautiful Aunt Mic
