Although we’ve only just started our wedding planning process, I feel like I’ve learned a TON. It’s one thing to be on the vendor side of the equation, but being a bride gives me a whole new perspective on my photography business. I’ve been hunting for the perfect photographer since that’s my number one priority […]

What I Learned About Being a Wedding Photographer by Being a Bride-to-be

I don’t know about you, but I’m a simple girl at heart and (at least for my own future wedding) my ideal venue would be a little rustic location surrounded by a sense of calm and fall leaves. Maybe that’s just the romantic in me talking, but I can’t help but love these barn venues. […]

The Best Barn Wedding Venues in Ohio

I actually met Crystal via Instagram of all places. She reached out to me looking to get head shots and images for her new website launch in March (you go, girl!). Of course, I jumped at the opportunity to work with such a sweet soul! We set up shop at Studio 821 in Newport, KY […]

I have a lot of brides that are on the fence about a first look because they’re really wanting that magical moment of their groom seeing them for the first time walking down the aisle, but also want an opportunity to take the majority of their pictures before the ceremony and be able to go […]

To First Look or Not to First Look?

This post is a short and sweet one. Just soak up all the pretty!  I don’t know what it is about monochromatic hues, but I’m head-over-heels for these combos. Whether it’s a chic Southern wedding or a black-tie ceremony, I’ve always been a fan of the “having each bridesmaid wear a different dress” concept because it […]

Custom Wedding Timelines

Okay, Friends, Let’s be real. I don’t know about you, but I’m always at a total loss when it comes to styling myself. It’s not exactly my forte and I always default to my go-to resources like Pinterest for some inspiration.  If you’re like me, then thinking about not only dressing yourself but also your […]

What to Wear to Your Engagement Session

  As many of us prepared for the holidays and time with family, we also knew that the flood of engagement posts on our Facebook feed would soon be flowing in once the clock struck on Christmas night. To say I was a little excited maybe an itsy bitsy understatement.  I LOVE RINGS!  The first […]

New Bling? Let’s do this thang!

Every single wedding is different and unique, but they’re also very similar. The bride may be stressed, someone may spill something on their dress, the boys are running late (which ALWAYS happens 🙂 ), or no one can find the officiant. Seriously. This is all normal. So, since this is likely your first wedding you’re […]
