Theresa & Frank's Engagement Session

When I met Theresa to discuss her wedding in June, I instantly felt comfortable with her; and we laughed out butts off throughout the entire meeting (I knew Frank would be an instant hit as well)!

Fast forward to their engagement session a couple months later, at the Hinckley Metroparks, and they totally agreed to play into my "Valentines Day" theme - lollipops, sparkles, and just ultimate lovey-dovey-cheesiness. What a great couple! I have some of the BEST clients :)

Nichole & Matt Engaged

Another beautiful November day with another beautiful couple! 7-0-d-e-g-r-e-e-s-what?!?

I met up with Nichole and Matt in Medina for their amazing engagement session. We started at the square, where the two were engaged, and then worked out way over to a local park (in between we stopped at some railroad tracks and an open field, where we kind of trespassed...kind of...but it was well worth it).

These two definitely know how to work the camera :) I mean, just look at them! Nichole brought along some great ideas/props - including a picnic basket complete with vintage books and wine; a girl after my own heart :)

Cheers you two!

Natalie & Dylan Engaged

Anytime I shoot an engagement session in November I assume it's going to be crappy weather-wise...it's Cleveland...it's a weekend...so it's kind of a guarantee it'll either be raining or snowing. I hardly admit this, but I was so very very wrong!

I met up with Natalie and Dylan on a 60-degree, early November day (after I did my happy dance, because it was 60 degrees and partly sunny - now we're talking!). We met in beautiful Brecksville, at the train depot, in the Metroparks. It's such a cute area; with the train tracks, the bridge and the open spaces - it's definitely becoming one of my favorite places to shoot.

These two were such a blast! Natalie is beautiful and has hair to-die-for, for reals (I told her I was going to steal it) and Dylan is a cop, so I, of course annoyed him right away about getting some "FOP" cards. I mean, come on, don't they just hand them out like candy on Halloween? Nope. They do not. But he promised to send me some - so I forgave him. PLUS they brought along their sweet woofie, Buckeye, and he put on his furriest face for a couple photos. Enjoy :)

Amanda & Mike Engagement Photos

I have known Mike Fuller since he was in elementary school; seriously...we used to ride bikes, trade stickers and even jump on the trampoline together (sorry Mike, but it's true). And now he is all grown-up and getting married and I couldn't be happier for him and his fiance, Amanda, who is one very cool chick. These two are getting married on June 10th at the Sheraton in Cuyahoga Falls, and we finally had nice enough weather to sneak in their engagement session in Chagrin Falls - right where Mike proposed to Amanda :)

Ali & Dan - Engagement Pics

I need to start off by saying I LOVE THESE TWO! What a fun couple and so adorably in love. We met on Sunday in Chagrin Falls and I couldn't have been happier - it's my hometown and one of my all-time favorite places to have a photo-shoot. Plus, Ali and her entire family hold a special place in my heart :)

Ali & Dan - hope you enjoy your sneak-peak, there are lots more images to come - these are just a little taste. I am so excited for your 'big day' in June!
