Caylee + Jarrett | Engagement | Downtown Youngstown, Ohio

My journey with Caylee and Jarrett began in a hair salon. Caylee was sitting across the room from me, getting her hair done and talking about being newly engaged. Insert me looking like a complete crazy person with red and orange hair color all over my head (and probably my face if we’re being honest) and my hair stylist, Bianca (Roots Salon and Wellness Spa), hyping me up to Caylee. Now she could’ve ran for the hills but instead I got an email from her a couple of weeks later and we vibed instantly! Meeting her and Jarrett, having conversation and just hanging with them is easy. I knew photographing them would be fun!…

Meaghan and Jon's Fall Micro-Wedding | Saint Edwards | Youngstown, Ohio

I can’t believe this is my last wedding blog of the year. If I’m being quite honest, I didn’t know if this wedding was going to happen because of Covid. Two weeks before Meaghan and Jon’s wedding, state restrictions came back in full force, leaving them to make some difficult decisions in a matter of days. Their wedding was scaled back quite a bit. Their venue was changed. But you know what didn’t change? The outpouring of love for these two. It was felt in person and virtually. I am so sad that some very important people in Meaghan and Jon’s lives couldn’t physically be present on this day, but I feel even more honored to share these photos with you all. The day turned out to be an incredible one….

Shafica and Jason's Glam Fall Wedding | Waypoint 4180 | Canfield, Ohio

This year has officially become the year of overcoming adversity. Shafica and Jason’s wedding planning was just that. There were roadblocks from the beginning of the year, when we had to reschedule their engagement session several times because of Covid, and then their wedding had to be rescheduled because of Covid. But they pushed through all of that, together, along with their friends and family by their side. Nothing, and I mean nothing, was going to stop these two from having a beautiful wedding! And let me tell you, it was seriously stunning. From Shafica’s dress to the tablescapes, everything was elegant with touches of glam….

Danielle and Craig's Outdoor Fall Wedding | Shangri-La Event Center | Garrettsville, Ohio

I always feel so honored when my friends ask me to photograph their wedding day. I feel even more honored when it’s someone I’ve been friends with for 10 plus years like Danielle. Before wedding planning with her, I don’t even remember the last time we had seen each other. Being able to reconnect with her for one of the biggest days of her life seriously makes me ten times more grateful for my career path!…
