Gianna's High School Senior Session
A Journalistic Approach

Berea-Midpark High School Senior Portraits I often hear from clients how much they prefer candids, but the fact remains that most people are simply not overly comfortable behind a camera, making candids quite challenging. It is my job as a photographer to direct, while my subject looks natural and not robotic, to lighten the mood and encourage fun. In many ways photography can be a psychological approach. However, I did not need this approach...

Katie's High School Senior Portraits
Going Legend in North Ridgeville

North Ridgeville High School Senior Portrait Session I have had the pleasure of befriending Scott and Kristin Barnhart, and photographing their daughter and son in a variety of sports activities for about 12-plus years now, while recently photographing Katie’s high school senior portraits in Berea, Ohio.

Berea, Ohio Engagement Photoshoot I get asked many times about the best photography locations in Northeast Ohio, and without thinking, Berea would be on my top-3 list. For engagement sessions, I love starting at the Berea Falls Overlook. With its old stone train bridge, giant boulders, waterfalls and rapids, it resembles a mountain ravine. Follow that up with Coe Lake, a very clean and accessible park with pathways, bridges, and a spectacular...

New Blossoms and a Baby Boy
Event Date 05/05/2019
Location Coe Lake, Berea, Ohio

Coe Lake Maternity Photoshoot When I think back to Jessica and Tyler’s wedding, I remember a warmhearted and fun-loving couple with a wonderful family, and will never forget their energetic and hysterical reception dance floor. What a celebration it was on November 3, 2018. So I was excited to keep the magic going when Jessica and Tyler called me in early spring of 2019 to capture a maternity session in anticipation of their baby boy, Levi....
