Jill+Don | Cincinnati Wedding Photographer

Lake Lyndsay... one of my favorite locations to photograph at... It's almost like your at a Destination Wedding because its so secluded and with it being set next to the large lake it makes for perfect backdrops for every shot.

Jill and Don were married on September 10th, 2010.

Wait until you see the show that the sunset and sky gave us toward the end of the evening.

Congratulations!!!

Military Ball | Cincinnati Event Photographer

I had the extreme honor of photographing my 2nd Military Ball- this however was the 174th Air Defense Artillery Brigade Ball.

It took place at the Hilton Easton in Columbus.

Donna Lennox, is the decorator and event planner for the event.  Once again they were blown away by her vision and charity.  

Here are a few images from the night:

Jami and Aaron Wedding Day | Cincinnati Wedding Photographer

Jami + Aaron

Dec 11,2010

An amazing couple- these two have the biggest hearts of people I know!!  I just found out that Aaron spent time almost every year in Haiti to help out with the children who are homeless and hungry.  His dad created an organization to send money down there.  Jami and some of her girlfriends spent time in Nicaragua doing the same thing!  They are true humanitarians and make me proud to know them.

Aaron was so sweet he kept the honeymoon a secret from Jami until they arrived at the airport to leave.  She knew they needed a passport and thats all that was said.  I couldn't even get it out of him until I was leaving the reception! 

I saw Jami a few days after she got back from......Dominican Republic!  She said it was amazing even though it was only sunny 1 day!! She was sporting an amazing tan for only 1 day though!!

Here are some of the shots from their big day- Congrats again guys!

Had to have the Oscar's Bathroom photo!!!

Jami and Aaron didn't want to do a first look but they did want to speak with each other before walking down the aisle.  I thought that this was adorable- after snapping a few shots, I left them be while they spoke to one another.

right before the ceremony Jami got the best surprise she could ever ask for... her sister was able to come.

Her sister was involved in a severe accident around Thanksgiving and has her in the hospital for special care.  Two amazing nurses were so kind to have a salon come in and do her hair and makeup and bring her to the ceremony to spend time with her sister and new brother in law.  There wasn't a dry eye in the hallway when she came in. 

They started off with a reception at the church...

Then we headed over to Oscar's where the 2nd reception took place...

but first we did photos inside since it was pouring outside!!!

His brother had the greatest speech- makes me wish I had the capabilities to do a movie because it was like a 3 min song that he wrote out for them and rapped to them.  Check our their faces- HILARIOUS!! 

 Jami went for the kill!!

but Aaron got her back right away!!

The pastor even was out doing the robot, I was sitting on the floor cracking up at this!!

Aaron is a closet break dancer- never in the times that I had met with them and did their engagement photos and everything did I know the moves this kid has... HOLY COW!  He needs to be on So You Think You Can Dance because SON HE CAN!!!
