Cincinnati Photographer Published!!!

Check out Cincinnati Wedding Magazine's newest issue! Page 84!!!

Beth and Steve Wedding Cincinnati Wedding!!


I loved her chocolate and green apple theme!!


Bridget is awesome, she cuts my hair too at J McQueens on the west side!


Totally jealous that she got Cass to do her make up!!


I love the moment here!


One of my favs!


Cool idea! Instead of flower petals the flower girls threw apple leaves!


Love this smile!


A beautiful bride!!


A handsome groom!





Beth loved this tree! I have to say it is one of my favorite places to shoot!





Another fav!





Love the shoes!









Beth and Steve are very good friends of mine. Beth has also been my second photographer for the last 4 years! I was honored when she asked me to photograph her wedding. She was a beautiful bride and Steve wasn't so bad himself! :)
They gave me total control over the day and wanted tons of shots of just the two of them. It was too much fun!! We went from downtown Covington to Devou park to the neighborhood near their venue. The Madison South in Covington is where the girls got ready and held the ceremony and reception as well. Video was by Scott Reith with First Image Video, always a good time working with him too!
Beth and Steve did such a great job with everything! Beautiful Venues, colors and music to set the mood of their day. My favorite part was the fact that their close friend was ordained just to marry them! It made their ceremony that more special. (Ok, my other favorite part is that her shoes were green!, I think I have about 20 shots of her shoes! ) Best of luck to the newly weds, I love you guys!!!

Finally!!!! My beautiful second shooter Bethany Vail, now Bethany Tozer






Ok, so as many people have heard me talk about Beth's wedding, I shot LAST September! :) She was kind enough to let me put her wedding last on my editing list. Here are just two of my favs!! Beth looked absolutely perfect! I'll have more next week!!

Emily and Nick Epix


Meet Palmer
























They have the cutest little Palmer!!! As you may guess Emily and Nick are Bengal fans and not to mention the biggest UC fans ever! They selected downtown Covington with a great view of Cincinnati! I'm so looking forward to working with them again next year!! Their wedding will be beautiful, but unfortunately Palmer has to stay home :(

Betsy and Dave Wedding


Betsy got dressed at their home. I thught this was great, because it's their first place together.








They saw each other for the first time that day at their home also.


It was a beautiful Autumn day! I love this shot taken by Bethany Vail, my second shooter.








I totally did not set this one up! Well I did for a portrait, the bride had an itch on her nose! Love it!


One of my favs!








I loved this location. This is where Betsy and her family spent a lot of time when she was a kid. Her and Dave now go there together! I say it all the time, pick locations that are meaningful to you. You'll love the results that much more!






Betsy and Dave were so easy going on their day. I love that they surrounded themselves with people and places closest to them. Starting from meeting in their front yard to the park she remembered as a kid. The church is the one she grew up in also. Great planning for such a great couple! All of her family and friends made us feel so welcome as well! I wish them a life time of happiness together!

Kosina Family


The Kosina Family thought they might never get a photo of the whole family together. It's not the easiest with two small children. I speak from experience!

Sometimes the best photos are when no one is looking.


She had the coolest room!


Little brother likes it too!


Christmas is here!!





Has to be my favorite!


Awww! the love a big sis will give this time of year, especially when brownies are they involved!!


What it with kids and their tongues? And how can they still be so cute when sticking it out?
