Jordan & Heather

Earlier this year, Jordan contacted me mentioning how he was going to be asking his girlfriend, Heather, to marry him some point soon – so we started brainstorming about how fun it would be to get photos of the actual engagement happening!  We’ve actually been wanting to do this for awhile.

After several months and several failed attempts at getting a date to work, we finally had a day that we could make it happen!  It was somewhat of a last minute decision to go through with the portrait shoot portion of the engagement, so we didn’t have a lot of time to plan.   We were first thinking that a rooftop location overlooking the city would be awesome, but at the last minute decided on a more intimate, natural setting and ended up at Maumee Bay State Park.  The whole time, Heather had no idea what was about to happen.  Jordan had set it up to make it seem like he wouldn’t be asking her until the Spring, and had told her that his friend was in town and needed some photos for his blog – which is technically true ;)

Once Amber and I started shooting, we played it off like we were “just warming up” before the real shooting began.

What a cool way to propose. I think it’s awesome the way you handled it and the images of her reaction are gonna be a memory that they can relive forever through your photos. Great job, Amber & Jordan.

Thanks Gregg. Really appreciate the compliment my friend.

Eryn & Zak

Last week while we were vacationing, I met up with the recently engaged Eryn & Zak for a portrait session at Wildwood Park.  I first met Eryn at Samantha & Mike’s wedding, in which she was a bridesmaid, back in October.  Needless to say, these two are fun – and naturally photogenic.  Most photographers will say that one of the most important things to taking great wedding portraits is to get some practice in and get everyone comfortable with each other and in front of the camera.  Looking forward to their wedding next June!

Chris & Lindsey: June 6th, 2010

Chris and Lindsey were married at the historic St. Patricks in Downtown Toledo.  They traveled all the way from the Boston area to celebrate with their friends and family.  Chris and Lindsey both have very disarming personalities, and were extremely easy to work with.  They were pretty much up for anything, and even braved the rain for a short period of time!  Amber and I had a great time at their wedding.

We wish you two the best and we look forward to seeing you in the summer at Betsy & Tommy’s wedding! :)

What beautiful photographs taken of a beautiful couple on their wedding day!!! And to think I was there as well! Do you travel to New Jersey or even Massachusetts for Weddings or do my children need to get married in Ohio???

Perfect.
