The dog days of summer won't be back for awhile, but little Mila and her melty ice cream cone bring me right back to those long, warm nights at the beach. And let's be honest, the very best reward after a photo session is a hard-earned vanilla kid's cone, right? :)
These two laugh a lot. And I love it. As a photographer, I know it can be awkward to have your picture taken, but Colleen and Joe literally forgot the camera was there and were just absorbed with each other. These two are just really good people. They care about philanthropy and helping others and they are just happy human beings. Perfect clients, I say! :)
Colleen and Joe will tie the knot in December in downtown Cleveland. I'm super excited to work with them again (so soon!) and experience a winter Cleveland wedding. It's going to be a beautiful day!
Still some color left on those trees!
Gorgeous, lady. Again, I am obsessed with all my brides' hair! :)
I looooove that one above right. Colleen and Joe, the interaction, the soft light. Beautiful!
And then I asked them to lay on the ground ...
Love this one, too. You guys are awesome!

We were afraid it might rain, but guess what? We got the most beautiful evening for photos. Sunny and 75 right on the water at Edgewater Park. This lovely family was a referral from Ashley (I love referrals!), and they were fantastic. Little Jack was content playing with his ball and walking around (he just turned 1!), and mom and dad were so friendly and laid back. Jack, you have really cool parents. Let's do this again sometime, OK? OK!
I think he might be a football player when he grows up. :)
Or maybe a baseball player. He looks pretty good in that jersey.
And ... he's off!
My favorite!
