Becca is a girl I know from work and this spring she and her fiance eloped!  When she first told me about it, it was so apparent to me that her wedding day was about her and Spencer committing their lives to each other; not about the superficial details and the “it’s all about me” attitude [...]

This morning I encountered a little Woollybear Caterpillar.  I don’t really like bugs, but these little guys are so cute. 

I vaguely remember my parents taking Jon and I to a Woollybear Caterpillar Festival when we were younger.  I googled it and found out it takes place in Vermilion ((near Cleveland)) every October.  I can understand [...]

I just added a new item to my etsy shop:  A custom, frameable keepsake of your wedding vows in a 5×7 or 8×10. 

On Saturday, I helped my friend Ali (of Contrast Images) photograph David and Betsy’s wedding.  It’s always fun to work with Ali and I learn so much from her!  The weather was a little gray and windy, but those dark, ominous skies make for really dramatic photos!

And here is one of Peab and Amy, my [...]

Dan and Debbie are Funnel’s parents and they will be married 27 years this summer.

I’ll post wedding pictures of our grandparents sometime as well.  I’m thankful we have so many wonderful, lasting marriages in our family. 

I love wedding photos.  I am hoping that someday when we get a house, we can have all of our relatives’ wedding photos on a wall somewhere.  Both Funnel’s and my parents have been married 25+ years.
Here are a couple of my parents’ wedding photos from their December wedding in St. Timothy’s church in Massillon.:

I think it was on PostSecret awhile ago that someone said whenever they are having a bad day, they come home and put on their wedding dress.  I don’t do that (because my wedding dress is at my parents’ house and also, it’s kind of a pain to get into because it’s so heavy and [...]

Over the weekend, Funnel and I went to FamilyLife’s “Weekend to Remember” marriage conference, downtown at The Columbus. His parents had gone a couple of times and really enjoyed it and they recommended it to us.
I was looking forward to it, but when I looked at the schedule for the weekend, it looked exhausting and [...]

My friend Brandon and I have decided to partner together to offer wedding services!  I will be offering photography for free and he will do videography for a low price until we can get some more experience and build up a portfolio.
I am also happy to do any engagement sessions, couple portraits, pet portraits, family portraits, senior portraits, event photography, bridal [...]

So, cold weather has finally come to Ohio….I had to scrape ice off of my car windows this morning. Saturday was our Fall Festival at work and I was out in the cold for 8+ hours working in the food booth with two of the sweetest ladies… (one of them was from Germany and had [...]
