Dance

As some of you may know, I LOVE to dance. If I am not taking pictures, you may just find me dancing somewhere. Not professionally, of course, but just my goofy, love-to-groove, "in the living room" dancing.

I got an email this morning about this upcoming workshop by Xclaim Dance. Last year we shot this photo for the company and it is so cool seeing it in print for advertising. The dance company has so much talent.......I am sure this workshop will be fun for all that attend!!

Family-The 4 C's

Summertime brings the opportunity to take pictures of someone different everyday. In the last 4 days, I have taken a 2011 senior, an engagement session, a wedding, and a 3 month old's pictures. The variety is endless and I love it!

The picture below is a dear family that does a little traveling to get their photos taken :) The 4 C's.......( all their initials :) I love seeing the kids grow!

Wedding-Eddie & Wezlynn-Part 1

A little bit of Bond (James Bond) and a whole lot of glam. That's what comes to mind with Eddie and Wezlynn's wedding day. Venue-The Athletic Club in Columbus. There were lots of happy tears and lively dancing. Portraits and Reception pictures coming in next weeks blog, so for now, check out the gorgeous details of the wedding.










The girls were so excited to see the guys walking down the street from the hotel room.



And the guys were having fun at the barber shop in the Club.


I don't know if I have ever taken a picture of hairspray that looked this glamorous..........thank you, Wezlynn, for the glam!




Ceremony room........


See, I told you...........happy tears !






Can't wait to share more pics with ya'll next week...........

Wedding-Glorious Wezlynn

Sometimes a shot just calls my name and makes me want to dance!! If you looked in the studio window right now, you may see me doing just that! I want to feel something when I see a picture. This makes me feel.

I am in the the mid-stages of editing Eddie and Wezlynn's wedding. (say that 10 times fast :) Eddie had his own fabulousness going on, but we will save that for a future post. Until now, see the beauty that is Wezlynn.

And how about the make-up!! Tim Maurer, owner of Mukha Custom Cosmetics & Spa in Columbus, was the designer of this wonderfully glamorous look. More close-ups to come.....

Wedding-Andy & Kari-Part 2

I knew I would have fun with Kari and Andy....just didn't know how much! They had planned several locations for pictures after the ceremony. Downtown, the lake where they got engaged, and even a beautiful lighthouse location.















Thank you, Kari and Andy, for all the attention to timing and locations to make it a truly memorable day!!

Baby blue eyes

Those baby blues......just melt your heart!

Wedding-Andy & Kari-Part 1

A little bit of vintage and a whole lot of sunshine and love.......that was what Kari and Andy's wedding day felt like. Kari's jewelry and the lace in her birdcage veil were heirlooms. The shoes were totally cool vintage. And the dress, well.... very Kari! Completely perfect for her.






Andy's flowers required double duty to pin on. I am sooo not good at that and so thankful for moms and grandmothers who are willing to help out.



Bright colors and the feathers were a constant theme for the day.


Another piece of family history for Kari....the Bible in her bouquet.


Kari is a dancer and got ready at Kristina's dance studio in St. Mary's, Ohio. I completely love this shot.



You can't go wrong with a beautiful harpist....



The ceremony was in the park. The tunnel that the bridal party walked through make for some unique shots.











and just a sneak peak from the portraits to be posted next time. Let's just say I had way too much fun :)
