Cincinnati Wedding Photographer: Brooke + Phil

Brooke & Phil chose the Cincinnati Observatory as their ceremony location for it's unique architecture and because it's a hidden gem that would give the ceremony a lasting memory. After an emotional " first glance" we went to various local spots such as the suspension bridge, Great American ballpark,Carew tower, and Ault Park. They wanted to capture the flavor of Cincinnati. The ceremony itself was very intimate with only their close family. They first read from the childrens" book, "I Like You" , which was perfect for them & explained how they really felt towards each other. During their handwritten vows, it showed that the Observatory was the perfect setting. It is someplace that revealed the universe to be limitless , amazing and full of possibilities... much like a young couples' new love. Everyone headed to the PrimaVista restaurant for the evening with some great toasts by their fathers and enjoyed the breathtaking view. Congratulations Brooke & Phil!

CINCINNATI FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER: LIZZIE + SARAH






























For anyone who has kids, the times flies by in the blink of an eye. They are small, and totally dependent on you .Then all of a sudden they are these little people with their own ideas and opinions. It's SO important to capture these stages because you can't go back to get them again. Lizzie & Sarah are 9 year old twins with distinct personalities but still share that sisterly bond. They are hitting that stage where they enjoy trying on different outfits. We had a blast with their session cranking up their favorite Taylor Swift songs and let their true personalties shine!

I AM PHOTOGRAPHY!

This is something that was passed to me years ago when I first started out in photography 1993.
It made a lot of sense to me and most people might not realize the importance of photography.

"I AM PHOTOGRAPHY"
I turn back the pages of the Book of Memory. I bring you Thoughts of Past Years & Old-time friends. I keep forever Green the Happy Hours of Childhood. I dull the Pangs of Bereavement & blunt the Edge of the Grim Reaper's Scythe. I carry the News of the World, and bring you Visions of far Distant Lands. Our modern Civilization is largely dependent on my efforts.Though Men may Pass and Empires crumble to Dust, my Magic will Preserve their Likeness for future Generations. Not Purse proud, I am within the Reach of All. I solve mysteries impenetrable to Mortal Eyes, I ferret out the Criminal when other means have failed. I illumine the Pages of History, and make Learning possible for the Multitude. Born instantaneously in a Ray of Light, I become everlasting. As necessary in War as in Peace, I am Man's Servant, and yet his Master. I am an Art & yet a Business. I am Photography

CINCINNATI FASHION PHOTOGRAPHER: LOREN





I'm trying to use this time in the winter to expand my creativity and really learn more about working within the modeling world. It's exciting for me because in the 18 years that I've been a photographer, I have never even attempted to do sessions like that. I'm hoping to get to a point where I can offer my services to models looking to expand their portfolios and anything else that branches off from it. I also hope that working with models who let me really use my imagination on new posing concepts, it will carry over into my wedding portion of my business and really step up my game. At this point last year I was just taking a break from shooting weddings and enjoying the downtime. This year, I'm too anxious to just sit around and I really feel like if I'm not shooting , that I'm just wasting my time.
