Meaghan and Jon's Fall Engagement Session at Lake Newport Wetlands in Mill Creek Park in Youngstown, Ohio

It’s true that I shortened my name to Mae partially in hopes that people would spell it correctly. No one could ever spell my name right for as long as I can remember. When I met Meaghan, I thought to myself, FINALLY! Someone who knows how I feel! Needless to say, I liked her right away because of that, but then got to know her and Jon at their engagement session and seriously felt like I was hanging out with old friends. They’re dog lovers like me and brought along their sweet basset hound puppy, Nellie. I was in complete heaven! They also took me to a location in Mill Creek Park near Lake Newport in Youngstown, Ohio that I’ve never before, and I’m completely over the moon in love with this area….

Christina and Michael's Woodsy and Fun Spring Engagement Session at Poland Forest, the Poland Library and Handels Ice Cream in Poland, Ohio

I love being a wedding photographer. The wedding day and preparation are so much fun and special for me (yes, you can call me crazy). There’s always so much anticipation, excitement and beautiful chaos that I completely enjoy. While wedding days are wonderful, I think engagement sessions with my couples are equally as exciting. This is usually the time throughout the whole process where I really really get to know my couples. Plus, we’re able to slow down and take our time navigating the session and really get to have a lot of fun in the process….

Best of Mae B Photo Weddings 2018 and a Thank You to All of the Mae B Photo Couples

When I entered into the new year of 2018, I had such a momentum going and I couldn’t describe it. I instantly felt like the year was going to be the best in my career but also the most challenging. I never could’ve imaged just what that meant, but it truly was both absolutely wonderful and absolutely exhausting. Even with all of the challenges, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I experienced the highest of highs and fulfilled some career goals that I am so thankful for. I felt the pressure of being a seasonal wedding photographer in Ohio, with an overflowing work schedule and never ending to do list. I learned from my shortcomings and truly value those experiences, even though it felt at times like I’d never see the light at the end of the tunnel….
