For instance, the capes were added…

Alyssia and David came down from Cleveland for their engagement session last month! It was mid-June so we had to go to the Park of Roses. Yep, I basically live in that park in the month of June, and I am not mad about it! It was a perfect summer evening, with the sun setting…

Katie + Tom have fallen in love, and I’ve fallen in love with Cleveland all over again. Though these two are getting married next year in Columbus, they invited me to Cleveland for their engagement session. I came up the first Sunday evening in June, and I had only one request: to end at the…
Read MoreCleveland Newborn Session in Tremont: Baby Harper
Often when couples reach out to me to shoot their weddings, I’m sadly already booked on their date, and their date is already set.
