Grand Pacific Hotel Wedding | Olmsted Falls, Ohio

Kristy and Dave’s love story began at work in Ohio, although it was an a hour apart. Even with Dave living in the country and Kristy living in Lakewood, they made the commute work for 4 years. Dave proposed to Kristy on a family trip in Sodus Point,NY. While on the trip, Kristy was skipping some rocks on the water and Dave got on down on one knee. Kristy turned around and was so shocked she accidentally pushed him over!

Everything about their wedding was uniquely them! Dave and Kristy selected Grand Pacific Wedding Gardens in Olmsted Falls to hold their outdoor ceremony with the reception following at the Grand Pacific Hotel. The ceremony site over looks a stream with two charming cottages for the bride and groom to await their guests. Built in the 1830’s, the Grand Pacific Hotel is the one of the oldest historic structures in Olmsted Township. The hotel was perfect from their intimate wedding.

Every wedding detail was personalized. Kristy had her creative hand designing wedding invitations. She even created the logo with their faces on the invite and the match box covers. Wedding florals by were both playful and elegant ( Helen from A New Leaf Florist knocked it out of the park!) A backdrop of colorful ribbon and pompoms blew in the breeze behind Dave and Kristy at the ceremony. Handmade name cards with ninjas and cars greeted the guests at the reception. The wedding day was uniquely them!

Union Club Wedding | Kali + Jon

Photographing Kali and Jon’s day at Cleveland’s Union Club was the perfect kick off the start of this wedding season. During 2020, couples who planned a wedding definitely had to take “Love is Patient” to heart. Rescheduling wedding showers, engagement parties, ceremonies, receptions: EVERYTHING was turned upside down for anyone getting married. After having three wedding dates, Kali and Jon finally tied the knot at St. Gabriel’s in Concord and held their reception at the Union Club in Cleveland, Ohio. The traditional Catholic wedding ceremony was full of smiles and tears. For over a year, some family members had to stick to staying safe at home and didn’t get to be with loved ones. Joining together to celebrate Jon and Kali’s wedding day was wonderful way for family and friends to see each other again.

Magnet Street had the perfect invitation designs that coordinated with the delicate blue wedding color.
Kali decided to surprise Jon with a custom groom’s cake by Wild Flour Bakery.

Blue Heron Wedding in Medina | Stephanie + David

It has been an unusual year for wedding planning( to say the least!) Brides and grooms equally stressed over details, Stephanie and David just rolled with it. Moving forward with so much excitement to get married!

Stephanie met David while attending Brecksville High School. Eleven years later, Stephanie could not wait to marry her best friend. The smiles did not leave their faces all day.

Blue Heron in Medina is a beautiful venue for hosting a summer wedding! Having both an outdoor area for a ceremony and indoor space for the reception, Blue Heron was perfect fit for Stephanie and David’s day. With a bit of rain in the forecast, fingers were crossed for some sunshine for their ceremony. Luck on their side! The sun peaked out long enough for the bride and groom to have a first look, take a few outdoor portraits and have their ceremony to go off with out a hitch!

Stephanie had chalk board signs made for each bridesmaid. The words written on the boards are how she met each person.

Downtown Cleveland Engagement |Sage and Ted

First summer engagement session on the first day of summer. Sage and Ted are in the middle of planning their December wedding at White Birch Barn in Medina. With a winter theme for their wedding day, they thought it would be awesome to do their engagement photos with a summer feel. Sage selected downtown Cleveland for their engagement session so it would be a nice contrast to their barn wedding.

Since weddings and events in Ohio have postponed because of Covid-19, getting back to photographing portrait sessions in June has been awesome! Sage and Ted were up for their engagement session on June 20th, but it wasn’t until we got downtown when I realized it was the summer solstice officially the first day of summer. The summery evening in Cleveland did not disappoint!

Sage suggested that this was a perfect spot for a dip. Engagement sessions are a great time to have some fun practicing it before the wedding day. Ted had his dip down!

Shawshank Woodshop Wedding | Upper Sandusky, Ohio

Small hometown weddings are some of my favorites. I love when couples pick a location that has meaning for them for their big day! When I met with Joey and Jennifer, they spoke excitedly about their wedding plans in Upper Sandusky. Being a photographer from Cleveland, I didn’t know much about Jennifer’s hometown. Upper Sandusky is small town with a lot of character. It was one of several film locations for the movie, The Shawshank Redemption. When they revealed that the Shawshank Woodshop was the location for the reception, I knew this wedding would be a blast!

Getting married at  Jennifer’s childhood church, we started the day at Trinity United Church of Christ. Jennifer and Joey both choose to get ready there with family and close friends. The church was intimate and the perfect size for the ceremony.

The brooch with her grandmother’s initials was added to the bridal bouquet as the something “old” and something “borrowed”.

Detail of the wedding rings placed on the embroidered handkerchief. Jennifer carried it with her bouquet.

Mother of the bride was so happy to help Jennifer get ready.

Father of the bride was so excited to see his daughter in her dress for the first time.

Beautiful view of the back of the bride’s dress from the choir loft.

Old Stained glass on the interior of the choir loft of the church was perfect for a wedding portrait.

A pocket of nice light in the stairwell from the choir loft created spot for a candid portrait.

Located next to the Sandusky River, Indian Mill Museum was a gorgeous backdrop for portraits after the ceremony.

Shawshank Woodshop and Museum was perfect for an intimate wedding reception.

Designed by Jennifer, the botanical details on the seating cards greeted the guests.

Cleveland Ritz Carlton Wedding | Moran + Eric

Cleveland in December. You never know what weather you are going to get on a wedding day. Photographing in downtown Cleveland in the winter can be dreary, but Moran and Eric wedding day was bright and cheerful. Eric and Moran met overseas and planned to have wedding celebrations for both families. Because they were having a wedding ceremony in March in Moran’s native Israel, they choose to have an intimate wedding with family and close friends here in Cleveland.

The bride and groom got ready for their day at the Ritz Carlton downtown. The Ritz was the perfect venue for their intimate ceremony and reception. The hotel has gone through amazing renovations, including the lobby. It was great spot for their quick first look. With the sun on our side, we ventured outside of the Ritz for portraits on Public Square. Even after the leaves and flowers are gone, Public Square is an inviting space to take photographs.

Moran and Eric had a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony. Ceremony began surrounded by family the signing of a Ketubah, their marriage agreement.  Friends held up their lovely Chuppah, a canopy beneath which Moran and Eric said their vows. 

After the ceremony, a private dinner reception held for their wedding guests.  To kick off the evening, family and friends enjoyed a few cocktails before Eric and Moran’s parents and siblings shared hear-felt words for the bride and groom. Documenting their wedding story was truly a pleasure.

Equestrian Bat Mitzvah | Cleveland, Ohio

In Cleveland, I have photographed Mitzvahs with many unique themes. Amanda’s Equestrian-themed Bat Mitzvah celebration was something special.

Before her service, Amanda started her day with a portrait session at Temple Emanu El. Her smile and laugh was infectious. The service was lovely with a heart-felt speech from Amanda and special words from Mom and Dad. I love when I have the opportunity to photograph those moments!

The evening celebration was held at the Bertram Inn in Aurora. The ballroom sparkled with teal and purple decor. With Amanda’s love for horses in mind, the space had fabulous equestrian details designed by Whimzey Events . Horseshoe table cards greeted the guests at the entrance along with a special portrait of Amanda and her horse, Breezy. The kids’ tables had glittery horse and rider centerpieces while the adult tables had the adorable custom logo: Amanda’s Mane Event.

The party was filled with fun for the everyone. Rock the House rock it( of course!) with music, dancing and fun games for the kids. The photo booth was non-stop all with laughter especially with the addition of the equestrian-themed props. Particularly memorable, all the guests joined Amanda and her parents on the dance floor for the hora.

Amanda had a truly joyful celebration!

Ariel International Wedding | Alison + Matt

There is nothing like getting married in your hometown. Alison and Matt came home to Cleveland have their wedding ceremony and reception at the Ariel International Center. With panoramic views of the Lake Erie and the Cleveland skyline, Ariel International was the perfect choice in venue.

Their wedding day began at Alison’s parent home where Alison and Matt decided to do a first look in the backyard. Even though it is less traditional, a first look is a great idea for couples who want to do portraits before the ceremony. And Matt was all smiles when seeing his bride for the first time.

Rain was in the forecast, but held off long enough for some outdoor photos. From Alison’s parents’ home, we headed to the Cleveland Museum of Art and Wade Oval. The museum with its wonderful architecture and landscaped grounds is a natural spot for great wedding portraits.

The ceremony and reception went off without a hitch. Beautiful white draped background was hung in the ceremony space. The reception room glittered with gold tablecloths with pink hydrangea and rose centerpieces. The Cleveland skies cleared in the evening so we went up to the roof deck to catch the those 360 degree views.

Cleveland Wedding | Lindsey + Stephen

I was excited to photograph Lindsey and Stephen’s wedding story. They are the cutest match! They have a shared love for the Cleveland Indians, Ohio State Buckeyes and their two fur babies, Buckeye and Brutus.

Lindsey arrived with her bridesmaids at her parish, St. Anthony of Padua Church in Parma. She shared moments with her dad before the ceremony while Stephen spend time with his groomsmen. They had a traditional Catholic wedding ceremony, with family and friends all smiles. Afterwards, we headed to the Cleveland Museum of Art and Cleveland Botanical Gardens for wedding portraits and time with the bridal party. The wedding reception that evening was held at Saint Clarence Pavilion in North Olmsted, complete with a sparkler exit at the end of the night.

Creating Stress-Free Wedding Photos

Weddings are supposed to be joyous occasion, but too often, the stress of ensuring the day goes off without a hitch takes its toll on the happy couple.  Brides and grooms, take a deep breath, relax and actually live in the moments that represent the start of your life with your partner. With these simple tips, you can help your wedding photographer capture the true beauty of the day.

Bride and Groom Cleveland Botanical Garden

Cleveland Botanical Garden is a gorgeous location for wedding portraits any time of year.

Pick a venue that represents you.

Do you want a formal country club affair or is a more relaxed park setting more your speed? Pick a location that will make you feel like yourself and don’t let others pressure you into having your wedding where they want you to.

Don’t over-schedule your day.

Don’t try to fill your schedule so tight with everything you think you need to do. Make sure you leave time to enjoy all aspects of your day. A relaxed bride is a happy bride, after all.

Bride and Groom at Smart Space Cleveland Ohio

Allow enough time for formal shots.

Make sure you leave enough time for formal shots; you know, the ones you have to have because your parents and grandparents insist. Think about how many groups you want to capture and factor in about two to three minutes per group. Oh, and add a buffer for Aunt Sally’s bathroom break, a flower girl or ring bearer having a meltdown, and a bridesmaid looking for her bouquet. Allowing enough time for these shots gives your photographer the extra time to make sure the veil is perfect, the boutonnieres are straight, everyone is smiling and as a result, the shot turns out perfect!

Portraits taken at Cleveland Courthouse

No need for a long shot list.

You don’t want your wedding photographer checking off a to-do list versus capturing moments as they happen naturally. A shot list that merely states “1. Photo of the Bride. 2. Photo of the Groom 3. Photo of the Bridal Party,” etc., is obvious to your professional photographer and isn’t needed.  A more helpful is a short list that includes “key players” and a few must-have shots. A handkerchief handed down from your great-grandmother that you are carrying down the aisle. A close aunt who traveled for special for your wedding day. A bridesmaid or family member can be helpful point out to that special person to photographer.

engraved wedding flutes Cleveland Ohio

Pick only one or two special locations for creative photos.

Going with our theme of “less is more”, don’t try to get pictures at every attraction in the city. Pick a couple that are the most meaningful to you and let your photographer work his or her magic.
