Baby Elly | At-Home Shaker Heights Ohio Baby Photos

Nathan and I are so thankful to have friends going through this stage of life with us. David and Amy live down the street from us and go to our church, and they just recently welcomed their first baby into the world too!

Elly was long awaited and is so, so loved. Photographing this family of three was incredibly touching and made me ready to meet Nolan!

Enjoy my favorites from this sweet session. And check out the grip Elly has on her dad's finger! She grabbed on to his hand not long after her birth, so it was fun to document that little detail. :)

Cleveland Museum of Art Family Photos at Sunset

Photos at sunset are my favorite, and when Kalyn told me that's what she really wanted for her family session, I crossed my fingers and toes that we would get an awesome golden glow! Mother Nature sure did deliver. We had the most beautiful spring day to hang out at Wade Oval. 

This little family is so sweet, and there was no shortage of kisses, hand holding, hugs and maybe a few jelly beans. :) Kalyn is a super talented photographer herself, so it was such an honor to document these four! Enjoy the glowy goodness.

Janean & Brendan | Wade Oval Lagoon Engagement

I met Janean and Brendan at the Cleveland Art Museum the morning after a day of torrential rain (remember this wedding??). It was like a new place. The sun was out, the birds were singing. That was lucky for us because Janean and Brendan have been long distance for awhile now and coordinating schedules was a feat in and of itself. Brendan is finishing up med school and Janean has an awesome job in downtown Cleveland. And once they get married this June? The long distance will officially be over. Forever!

It was so fun hanging out with you guys!

Amber & Jeff | Glidden House Cleveland Wedding

Amber and Jeff's wedding was breathtakingly gorgeous from start to finish. No detail was left undone at their Garden Party-themed wedding, and every guest came donned in a bow tie, floppy hat or pearls.

These two made sure their day was intimate and cozy and personal. I felt it from the minute I met Amber and Jeff at the spa that morning. They worked hard to include me and make me feel like a special part of the day; I can only imagine that their guests felt well-loved from start to finish.

Amber and Jeff, I've adored getting to know you over the last year. You both have the biggest hearts! I'm looking forward to grabbing that brunch at Fire. ;)
