This is the second blog post in the “2020 Best Of” Series. We started with Part 1: Families, and today we are highlighting the best of our 2020 engagement sessions! We will end later this week with weddings, so stay tuned! I was grinning ear to ear putting together this post.  Each of these couples […]

2020 was the year of family time.  Time spent at home. Time growing closer as a couple, as siblings, as a family. This is the first blog post in the “2020 Best Of” Series. We are starting with families today and then we will continue with engagements and weddings! This post was so much fun […]

The last month of 2020 came and went so quickly! The schedule was so full of travel and celebrating! It was the perfect way to end a very long and strange year. The month began with snow! The children were delighted! A white blanket of snow covered our yard and the kids excitedly donned their […]

Therese and Phillip were one of the most expressively excited couples we have ever had during their Catholic Nuptial  Mass at the National Shrine of the Little Flower Basilica in Royal Oak, MI, just outside of Detroit. They were just giddy with delight that they were FINALLY married.  After months of planning, changing plans and […]

2021 is here and we started it off doing what we love: serving a couple on their wedding day.  This was my first time in Wisconsin….the land of cheese curds (which are delicious by the way.) When we landed there was a thick blanket of snow and I was instantly excited for the wintry portraits. […]

November here in Steubenville was a quiet month for our family.  No weddings this month made for a nice break from the regular workflow.  I had a few family sessions that kept me busy and I was able to do some work on updating our website with content from this past year. We went for […]

Big skies, golden sunsets and an overwhelming sense of joy and thanksgiving….the perfect recipe for a wedding in Dallas, Texas. This was our last wedding of 2020 and what a way to end this year’s wedding season. Veronica and Jon’s day was picture perfect, which, if you know Veronica, isn’t a surprise. The color pallet […]

Senior photos times two!  I was so excited when Jack and Mike’s mom reached out to me about her sons’ senior session. The Rook twins were so much fun to work with and it was awesome to see how they showcased their different personalities in thier sessions. We started with Jack who is a senior […]

October 2020 was a beautiful month. We were blessed with many sunny warm days at the beginning and slowly the weather began to cool and the leaves turned brilliant colors.  One of the most enjoyable parts of being a parent is seeing the world through their eyes. It brings a freshness and newness to life.  […]

It’s the time of year again! Senior portraits! I feel like the class of 2021 learned so much about what is important by watching the class of 2020 this past year.  They know that senior dances and even an in person graduation aren’t a given.  They have learned to savor the moment, not take anything […]
