Christina & Brian’s wedding reception at Hyde Park

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

Wow, how time flies.  I did Christina & Brian’s engagement pictures back in May, when October seemed so far away!  They had a beautiful wedding ceremony in Jamaica, just the two of them, and then held their reception here in Columbus at Hyde Park, in the Short North.  Christina did an amazing job of planning the reception, everyone had a great time, and it went very smoothly.  (My favorites are the cake cutting pictures, I think the whole room was laughing!)  Here are the pictures!

Brian & Stephanie’s Wedding

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

I had the pleasure of photographing Brian & Stephanie’s wedding on Friday, which was held at the Kelton House in downtown Columbus.  The dress, the location, everything was simply beautiful (except the mosquitoes!)  Check out the cake… pistachio and raspberry!  Stephanie’s dress was beautiful, with a vintage flair.  I got the wedding photos up on the web quickly (more or less unedited) so they could show them at their party the next day.

Here are the pictures!

Frank & Kellie’s engagement photo shoot sneak peek

Monday, July 28th, 2008

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of shooting this young couple’s engagement photos… they’re getting married at Walt Disney World!  I seem to be attracting people who are having their wedding somewhere other than Columbus, Ohio, but would like to have their engagement pictures done here.  Fine by me, I love doing engagement photography.  It’s so much fun and makes me remember back in the day when my husband and I were dating and giddy over our own engagement.

These guys are so in love, it’s really sweet.  I hope that their wedding is everything they dream it will be.

Nathan and Emilie’s Wedding

Friday, June 27th, 2008

I took a little trip down to Virginia Beach earlier this week to shoot my cousin Nathan’s wedding.  We almost didn’t make it because Northwest stranded us overnight in Detroit, and then our flight was delayed the next day, as well. We barely made it in time, but we made it!  I flew with my mom and my daughter Vivi (who had fun no matter where we were).

The wedding was a lot of fun, and the group was really into having some fun wedding pictures taken.  The ceremony was at a little park with a Japanese garden, and then the reception was in a hall on the naval base.

We’re getting ready to take a little vacation up to Put-in-Bay for a week, so I proofed the pictures as quickly as I could to get them online before we go.

So instead of a sneak peek, here are all the wedding photographs:

Matt & Melissa’s wedding - sneak peek

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

I had my first wedding as the official wedding photographer yesterday.  I really had a lot of fun!

Aside from having the darkest church on this planet, the wedding was simply beautiful. Their wedding colors were brown and sky blue, and they had 5 bridesmaids, 5 groomsmen, and 2 flower girls (Matt & Melissa’s daughters).  The blog doesn’t really do this picture justice, since the images show so small, but here is the formal shot of the whole wedding party:

After the ceremony, we had 20 minutes to shoot the formal pictures before the next wedding came in, so we had to skedaddle out of there real quick.  Then the reception was in the church’s multipurpose room, so it was a short little walk over there.  We took a few moments when the reception started to die down to get outside for a few bride & groom shots, like this one by their decorated car:

So I don’t overwhelm the blog with pictures, I’ll just post a couple more for the time being…

I thought it was cute that they were tying all the balloon bouquets together for this little girl to take home.  It reminded me of my cousin’s wedding where there were a lot of little heart soap favors left over, so my daughter collected a huge bag of the soaps.  In fact, we still have a big bag of little heart soaps, which we encourage the kids to use (or should I say ‘play with’) instead of dumping a brand new bottle of Bath & Body works hand soap down the drain in order to fill the bottle up with water…. yeah, my dear boy did that last week… but I digress…)

bride took her shoes off on the dance floor

Melissa decided her shoes weren’t for dancing in, but I thought they made for a nice photo op.

I’ve got tons more pictures, I’ll probably do a few more sneak peeks before it’s all said and done. :-)

Fun bridal portraits

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

I went to Inniswoods last night with a future bride (who is banning her fiance from looking at my web site, so I can post these :-) and we had some fun doing some bridal portraits.  She had her practice run of hair and makeup a little bit earlier in the day, and she brought along her friend to help smooth out the dress and assist.  We had some good fun!  Her wedding is June 7 at St Paul’s church in Westerville, and I’m doing the photography for it.  I’m excited, it should be fun!

We did the blushing bride theme…

We did some kind of artsy dramatic ones (too bad the sky was very gray with storm clouds, some bright blue would’ve been neat)

We did a few shots (of the camera variety) on the little stone bridge…

Christina and Brian - engagement photos

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

I had my first outdoor engagement photo session with this fun couple.  They are getting married in October, in Jamaica!  How romantic is that?  They are having a destination wedding of just the two of them, and then having a reception back here in Columbus.

We went to Inniswoods, because they said that they were outdoorsy people.  There are SO many good ones, that I might just have to post a couple more tomorrow.  I had some problems trying to decide which ones to post tonight for their sneak peek.
