Here is Ryan & Melissa’s first engagement session. We met in downtown Dayton in this secret place I have to take photos! Then we drove to Cox Arboretum right at sunset. It was beautiful!

I didn’t have much time to get to know Molly and Chris before their wedding day! They both currently live in my FAVORITE PLACE, the Windy City. It was clear from the first few minutes I saw them together that they are very much in LOVE!
Chris is in law school and Molly works for a Non-Profit called The Joyce Foundation an agency doing very good things for the Great Lakes!
They were married on October 31, 2009. I just realized that I have never posted their images on my blog!!!

Melissa & Ryan are one of the cutest couples ever! Ryan is the ideal groom, he has been just as involved with the wedding process as Melissa. It’s so great to see couples working together so well.
I photographed them at one of the best places in Dayton, Therapy Cafe. They were so kind to open their doors early for our special photo shoot.
This is the second session I have done with Melissa & Ryan, they were kind enough to indulge me while I was playing with some new equipment for this photo shoot.
Thank you to Therapy Cafe and Melissa & Ryan for helping with this beautiful session.

When I met Krystal, the first thing she said to me was “I don’t want my photographs to look like ANYONE else’s”!  Such a tall order!  She was full of energy and up for any idea I had.  Her one-of-a-kind engagement session was at the Ohio Theater earlier this year, and was one of the funnest sessions I have ever had!

I was so excited to be a part of her wedding day! The wedding was at Memorial United Presbyterian and reception at Country Club of the North in Beavercreek, Ohio.

Her bridesmaids were all my long lost best friends!  They got ready while drinking champagane and listening to my some of my favorite songs.

When the guys arrived for photos we realized that their tux’s were a whole fiasco. One of the grooms men felt a little snug! I loved that they didn’t let that stop them from having fun!

Krystal had beautiful rose center pieces from Charley’s Flowers in Chillicothe, Ohio. Her photobooth by Say Cheese was a big hit and made a beautiful guest book for people to sign.

We also had an additional special guest at the wedding when a frog decided to make an appearance!

Thanks Krystal & Rich for letting me be a part of your amazing day!
