I was very honored that Tiffany chose me to be her wedding photographer because Tiffany photographs weddings as well. When I had to choose my wedding photographer I was very picky and took some time to find someone that has a style like mine. Tiffany and Kurt were so wonderful to work with. When I displayed to photos at the reception Tiffany was so delighted and pleased to see some of the best photos from that day. I love shooting weddings and viewing other people’s reaction when they see their wedding photos is priceless to me. We started the day in Ashland Ohio salon Toppers. I got a few nice photos of Tiffany getting her hair done. After that I went to the Trinity Lutheran Church on Center Street to photograph the guys getting ready and headed down to the track field. Kurt is a state champion in shot put so I wanted to incorporate some dramatic images with the track equipment. I couldn't be more pleased on how the images turned out. When Kurt saw the images on my laptop at the reception he loved it. We traveled back to the Trinity Lutheran Church for the ceremony. My wife Jenna captured a wonderful photo of Tiffany's father kissing her head right before they walked down the aisle. This is one of the many reasons I love Jenna shooting beside me. After the ceremony we found some train tracks and I got some wonderful shots with the sunset in the background. The reception was at a barn and I loved all the little details outside and in. The lights were old fashioned large bulbs, cards for people to write their wishes for the couple and clothes pins to hang them on a string afterwards. It was a photographers dream. Below are just a few of my favorite images from that day.

Every photo looked like it was portfolio worthy. I think I might make a studio sample album out of this wedding. We started at the Hampton Inn on High street to photograph Emily getting her hair done and a few dress photos. I also love to do commercial work with gifts when ever I get a chance. I had the opportunity to do this with the perfume that Emily received as a gift. I really liked how it turned out. We then traveled to the St. Francis of Assisi Church. The church had such a wonderful glowing light to it from the stain-glass windows on the left hand side. It was perfect because I never use flash during the ceremony. After the ceremony we went to Goodale Park for a few portraits. I took one of my favorite photos of 2011 here. I might get a copy for my wall. When we were walking around the reception hall for a few last second portraits and I was so glad we did. I captured another great photo with the Short North sign in the background along with and beautiful sunset. We arrived at the Greek Orthodox Church Reception Hall and I set up right away for the first dance. I put a remote flash behind them and got some great photos out of that as well. You will be able to view some of my favorite photos from the wedding below.

The view was spectacular! The food was amazing and Kaylan and Kevin were a lot of fun to work with. We started to get ready at the Overbrook Presbyterian Church on 4131 N. High Street. The ceremony was beautiful and I got some great photos of the flower girl along with their exit from the church. We then traveled to Nationwide Blvd Arch Park. The photos that I got from here are some of my favorite from all year. I love it when the entire wedding party lines up and I tell them to start laughing at each other. It breaks the ice and everyone has fun doing it. When then do all the other fun shots along with some romantic photos of just Kaylan and Kevin together. We then went to River Club at Confluence Park for the wedding reception. As I said before the view was awesome and the reception was fantastic. I back lit their first dance and loved it. The staff at the River Club were great as well. I just wish I had more weddings there because there are so many portrait locations I would love to try. Below are just a few of my favorite photos from their wedding. Congratulations to Kaylan and Kevin on their new life together!

I really enjoyed photographing Jennifer and Michael’s wedding at the Four Seasons in Hilliard Ohio. I started in the getting ready room photographing the dress and the guys getting ready. We started the ceremony inside the Four Seasons because the rain. Thankfully the clouds parted so we could go outside for a few portraits. I love the lake in the background and all the nice features outside. We then headed inside for the first dance and reception. The Four Seasons is a great reception hall.

We started at the Hayatt Place Hotel in Worthington to get ready. I had Margaux meet Tyler for their first look in the lobby of the hotel. It could not have turned out any better. I left them alone to talk for a minute then we were off to the Whetstone Park of Roses. I love the Park of Roses. There are so many places for great portraiture all around the park. I love the walkways on the west side of the park and the rows of roses on the east side of the park. After taking the portraits we then traveled to Clintonville Women’s Club for the ceremony. The ceremony was held under a huge oak tree in front of the Women’s club. After the ceremony we took a few more portraits and went inside for the first dance and the reception. I loved every second of their wedding and the portraits came out so well. Below are just a few of my favorite portraits.
