Alexis & Brandon | Quail Hollow Wedding

September 27, 2013

9.14.13 was a good day. Alexis wins the prize for the most expressive bride I've ever photographed, and this wedding day is in the running for having the most beautiful weather at a wedding this year (that's a stacked category though). Oh, and Alexis and Brandon are some of the sweetest people I've ever worked with! Seriously, how do I get so lucky??

I knew I would like these two the minute Brandon told me he was a Phi Tau. Remember that fraternity I've mentioned working for in the past? Well, that would be Phi Tau. Those guys are a good bunch and Brandon is no exception.

Alexis and Brandon are incredibly hard working (Can you believe Alexis is currently in med school? Like, WHILE planning her wedding!), kind and passionate people, and I know they have an incredible journey ahead. I say this all the time, but what a blessing it is to meet people like these two on a regular basis.

Alexis and Brandon, thank you for being awesome. Period. :)

See? Expressive!

Look at that perfect blue sky!

And this is why it's awesome to have a second photographer. While I was getting the front view of that top right photo, my assistant Markie was capturing this more candid photo of the bridesmaids. Thanks, Markie! :)

How gorgeous is Alexis? She's equally as sweet!

Favorite!

Katelyn & Ryan | North Canton Engagement

May 22, 2013

I met Katelyn and Ryan at their BRAND-new house on a beautifully sunny spring morning. These two have so much ahead of them, including fixing up their darling house and tying the knot in January! I absolutely love hearing about this time in a couple's life because, having recently gone through it myself, I know about all the excitement that is on the horizon.

Katelyn and Ryan, the best to you both as you prepare for your life together. I'm so grateful I got to capture a little piece of it. :)

The light!

Seriously. Seriously?! My absolute favorite!

Gorgeous, Katelyn. I love your hair! :)

Jessica & Dennis | Engagement

November 2, 2012

They frequented the same places, knew the same people ... it's kind of amazing they didn't meet until one of their mutual friends mentioned that they might be good together. Although "good together" is an understatement. These two are flippin' fantastic together and so cute. :) One look at them and you know they love each other so much.

I spent some time with these two right as the leaves were changing. We walked around Quail Hollow and talked about life and their upcoming wedding. Then we stopped by The Barrel Room in North Canton, which is where these two met and months later celebrated their engagement with family and friends. I'm so honored to be photographing Jessica and Dennis' wedding next October. Can't wait! :)
