Happy Wedding Wednesday… erm… Thursday! Guys, my internet went down yesterday, so Wedding Wednesday has been moved to today! My last engagement session of the year (I feel like I’ve said this at least twice now…) and I am in love with this one!
Brandie & Travis are both nurses from Nelsonville and when Brandie reached out to let me know their wedding would be in SE Ohio… ahhh I was so happy! My kind of people.
I love getting to know the stories of my couples. This is why wedding and engagement photography is my passion. Your stories are my favorite! Brandie was telling me how much she and Travis have loved vacationing in Mexico while they were dating. On a recent trip, Travis was planning to propose and Brandie kept trying to change their plans, even ax the bag containing her future engagement ring (to make things easier, of course)! Travis managed to keep everything on track though and obviously succeeded with his master plan!

Finally Friday! Last weekend, Ohio University graduated the Class of 2018! I headed down to Athens to meet one of these graduates, Madison! Instead of worrying about getting photos exactly where she wanted to take them on the day of graduation with thousands of other graduates and their family and friends, Madison had me come down the week of graduation for a fun shoot with her fiancé, parents, and fellow graduating gal pals.
Once I navigated OU’s impossible parking situation hahaha – Guys, I suck at figuring out parking on college campuses. Makes me feel extra old - I was so excited to see Madison and her family and friends looks so fabulous and ready for photos!
I only do one college senior session a year, and I really feel like these should become more of a thing! I actually wish I had done them! I met my very best friend in college (we are inseparable!) and those four years were so much fun. Why not commemorate that time with a fun photo shoot on campus??

Happy Monday! Is it ever really a happy Monday? Where did the weekend go? Well I hope to brighten up your day with this amazing couple! Meet Kelly & Trent! They were a dream to photograph, at my favorite place on earth! I seriously cannot wait for their September wedding.
For their engagement session, Kelly trusted me to shoot in my hometown. It's my favorite! I know the light and I knew the beautiful scenery would be the perfect backdrop for this gorgeous couple. They drove all the way down from Sunbury! Sooo thankful when my clients trust me like this!
Kelly and Trent brought along their sweet as can be puppy Napoleon! Oh, they make the perfect little family! These two are high school sweethearts and I know their wedding is going to be amazing!

Back to blogging (at least for a minute)! I met Chelsey and Matt only a week or so before their wedding day and I loved hearing all the details they had planned! They were planning an outdoor ceremony with unique spins on the traditional wedding day.
These two had such an amazing day. I love September weddings. The colors Chelsey chose were so beautiful and her dress was to die for! When she was feeling a little anxious about the day, the only person to calm her was her soon-to-be husband, Matt. The world surrounded them on this day.
Chelsey and Matt were married by a shaman. I had never experienced a ceremony like this! There were so many traditional aspects to the day, but these two made it completely their own by incorporating their unique spirituality. The day even ended with a drum circle! It was so fun to see the Native American touches that were added. The dream catchers surrounding the reception were all so beautiful!
My favorite parts of this day (besides the drum circle!) were actually the speeches their friends gave about their love story. Chelsey and Matt seemed to have found each other at just the right time in their lives. And my absolute favorite moment was with Matt and Chelsey's daughter. These two had such a special connection. I loved seeing this family become complete.
Here are some of my favorites from my final wedding of 2016! Congratulations, Matt + Chelsey!
