Mansfiled Ohio Wedding with Ashley and Skyler

2012-05-16T18:16:19Z

I had a great time with Ashley and Skyler this past weekend. They are a great couple and I really liked photographing their engagement session last year. We started with the getting ready photos at the First Church of God in Shelby, Ohio. I love the photo of Ashley's shoe with a penny taped to the sole of the shoe. I took the groomsmen outside for a few fun portraits. I did the same with the girls inside the church and the photos came out fantastic. After the ceremony we covered all the family shots and hustled on over to the reception at the Ontario Event Center. This is the reception center of the Brown Derby Roadhouse in Ontario, Ohio. I liked that the bridal party girls all had sunglasses for their entrance. I also liked the favors along with the fox cake topper. Congratulations Ashley and Skyler Fox!

I really like the Scioto Mile in downtown Columbus and I finally got down there for a beautiful foggy morning. I started by the River Club where I cover a lot of weddings during the year. I then traveled to one of the train track bridges in Columbus. I had to move quickly because the sun was coming up and the fog was starting to lift. I hustled with my tripod and camera and found some great shots along the bike path. I surprised on how great the photos turned out.
