We just can’t get away from Proctor…

But that’s not necessarily a bad thing!  Proctor Hall, home of the College of Nursing, on UC’s campus is an absolutely awesome location for portrait sessions.  We had been trying to schedule Gina and Rick’s e-session around the rain last week… We moved it from Tuesday to Wednesday to avoid the showers.  Wouldn’t you know [...]

Runnin’ out of Daylight

Adrienne and Scott are getting married next month in Cleveland, but they didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to have a uniquely Cincinnati engagement session.  Both Adrienne and Scott had special requests for the session… Scott wanted images from Devou Park’s overlook with the beautiful city skyline… Adrienne wanted to go to Newport [...]

Bermuda, Bahammas, come on pretty mama…

Oh wait, I really mean Alaska.  Brianna and Tim decided to play hookie and meet me at Krohn Conservatory for a hot… and cool, engagement session.  We enjoyed the rain forest, the desert and even a snowball fight.  All in a day’s work!  Aside from having to combat my lens fogging up inside, everything went [...]

A little love in the air…

Think warm thoughts… Bermuda, Hawaii, beaches, sun…  As Kristi, Brian and I shot their engagement session at Spring Grove, the “feels like” temp was definitely not equal to that of Hawaii, but we had a great time shooting none the less.  I had searched Spring Grove high and low to find the best fall foilage [...]

The car’s locked…

I really enjoyed the drive out to Higher Ground to meet Hilary and Joey for their engagement session.  Higher Ground held a significant place in their relationship… the place they got engaged, the place of their wedding day festivities, and special childhood memories of Hilary.  A beautiful stone house, a beautiful creek, and a beautiful [...]

Fitting me in!

Most to the time, schedules are so busy that I have to work to schedule all the sessions that I need to shoot.  This time the reverse happened.  Meet Beth and Rob.  Beth is a history student at Wright State, and Rob is in the military.  Only in town for a few weeks for training, [...]

Love and honour to Miami….

“Our college old and grand.
Proudly we shall ever hail thee
Over all the land!
Alma Mater now we praise thee,
Sing joyfully this lay.
Love and honour to Miami,
Forever and a day!”
 
Okay, I’ll admit, I’m more than a little excited to get to work with Lanita and Kyle.  The big MU definitely holds a special place in my heart!  [...]

I almost fell in the river!

With my camera to boot!  Can you believe it?  Fortunately I have superb balance, and was able to catch myself.  You should have seen the look on Heather and Andy’s faces when I wobbled!   Heather and Andy had a great session.  I’m so thankful they are patient, as I drug them all over Sawyer [...]

A walk in the park…

Hanging out with Laura and Gary at Ault Park was definitely an adventure.  I had a blast experimenting with them, trying new things.  Both Laura and Gary were willing participants in the session.  During a phone conversation with Laura before the session, she said that she thought Gary would feel very comfortable, and that she [...]

Tiffany & Andy sittin’ in a tree… K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

After numerous reschedules attributed to poison ivy and horrible exams, I was finally able to get together with Tiffany and Andy to shoot their engagement portraits.  The lovely accomodating photographer that I am… (I’m allowed to pat myself on the back), I was more than happy to shoot the session at Sawyer Point upon Tiffany’s [...]
