Springtime Family Session

Ryan and I have so much fun spending time with the families we photograph. On this particular day, we loved documenting the affection between parent and child, the sweet innocence of little Tori, and the unbridled laughter and personality of Cooper. I hope that these pictures will help Katy and Rick remember the blissful days of having a young family. I, for one, will always remember Ryan diving off of the OARDC stairs and rolling down the hill repeatedly just to see Cooper laugh! Thank you for a lovely afternoon Katy and Rick!

Erin: 2 Years Old

Erin is one of those children that reminds me to try to see the world through a child's eyes. She is such a smart little girl who loves to explore and learn. She can talk so well considering she isn't even two yet, and she is just exploding with personality. I loved spending time with her and her beautiful mommy, Charlene. I hope my little ones have the pleasure of playing with her some day too!

Reese: 3 months

We photographed sweet Reese at the beginning of the summer. We had planned a number of poses we wanted to try with Reese, but we were soon reminded that babies often have their own plans. He wasn't feeling too well the night of his session, but we were able to catch some of his quizzical, happy, and content moments in between the sad ones. Reese is an absolutely gorgeous baby. Honestly, I could stare at him all day. Jaclyn and Matt, thank you so much for allowing us to photograph your beautiful baby boy!

Hallie & Eric: Engaged

One of the many joys that photography has brought to my life is reconnecting with old friends. Many years have passed since I last saw Hallie, but she is as adorable and fun as I remembered. I loved having a chance to meet the man that she is so clearly in love with. Eric and Hallie are so natural and comfortable together, which made photographing them a breeze for Ryan and I. They chose to start their engagement session at the Cleveland Museum of Art, where they had their second date, and then we finished up at University Circle, where Eric had proposed to Hallie. Eric and Hallie, we enjoyed spending time with you, and we are so excited for your wedding day!
