Heather & Steve | Maternity

Well I can hardly believe it. My best friend is having a baby! I’ve known Heather practically forever, growing up in church together. She and Steve have been married nearly a year now and they’re expecting a baby boy! Our shoot took place on another hot and humid day, but these two were amazing. We drove all around Cuyahoga Valley National Park, stopping at the covered bridge, Hale Farm and finally Brandywine Falls. (We didn’t actually end up taking any shots in front of the falls, we’re saving that for the next baby :D) As you can see in one of the shots below we had a little audience watching us! There were quite a few deer that kept stopping in the back and seemed quite curious! I’m so glad I finally got to photograph these two and look forward to taking pictures of their new baby soon!

Jessalyn & Sam | Wedding

A couple months ago I had the pleasure of photographing Jessalyn and Sam’s wedding! I met up with the girls getting ready at the hotel in downtown Massillon and snapped a few quick shots across the street. (How great is that building? There’s such great old architecture downtown!) We then hurried over to the Canton Garden Center for the ceremony. The setting was gorgeous, just in front of the small waterfall. We took photos in the park and then moved to the McKinley Monument which clearly is a popular spot for wedding photos! (There were at least three other couples there at the same time!) The reception was so lovely, Jessalyn made all of the gorgeous centerpieces and isn’t that butterfly cake stunning? Jessalyn and I were in choir together in high school and she always had the most beautiful voice, so it was such a treat when she sang Ingrid Michaelson’s “The Way I Am” to Sam! It was just such a fun time and Jessalyn and Sam are such an adorable couple, I’m so happy I was able to be apart of their day!
