Stephanie and Bryan's Wedding
A Romance Written in the Sand

St. Bartholomew’s Wedding Ceremony | Aloft Cleveland Wedding Reception I love hearing the backstories on how my couples met. I have heard several stories that coincidence just can not explain. Stephanie and Bryan both attended Strongsville High School, but did not know one another or cross paths. After graduation, they went to two different colleges. It wasn’t until a trip to Windsor, Canada with a group of mutual friends, during their junior...

Marissa and Nick illustrate this perfectly. In honor of their upcoming wedding, I wanted to post some highlights from their engagement session last August. Nick and Marissa have a real...

Torey and Ben's Engagement
A Romance That Started with a Tweet

Downtown Cleveland Engagement Photoshoot Originally from Brecksville, Torey had moved to Columbus, graduated from Ohio State and started her professional career. She started following Ben on Twitter to keep up with Ohio State news, but also thought he was cute and wanted to get his attention. So one December night she tweeted that she wanted to go on a date, and then went to bed. The next morning she was elated to see that Ben accepted. Three...

Richelle and Karl's Engagement
Up, Up and Away!

Downtown Cleveland Engagement Photoshoot I absolutely love my couples. Richelle and Karl are so much fun, and the kind of couple that instantly make you feel good and smile when you are around them.

Richelle contacted me before the session, and wanted to...
