Mary Jo & Caiti; Jeffrey Mansion

I met Mary Jo and Caiti over 7 years ago in a past life as a receptionist (a starving artist has to pay the bills right?!).  Mary Jo was my boss and her little girl Caiti came in to hang out with me a lot.  We watched movies, talked about boys and laughed a lot.  It really seems like just yesterday!  You may recognize Caiti from our website and blog posts, because I also had the pleasure of photographing her senior portraits.  We have all grown up so much since the first time we met.  Life has thrown these two amazing woman some hardships but you would never be able to tell by the smiles on their faces and the warmth and love they have for everyone.  I was so excited to be able to photograph Mary Jo and Caiti for our Portraits in the Park Session.   I knew we would have a day full of bursts of laughter (as you can see below!).  It's hard to take a bad photo when you're having such a great time!  Below are just a few of my favorite photos from our time together.

The Frank Family 2013, Jeffrey Mansion

There is nothing more that I love than watching our clients families grow.  I am always so excited to photograph The Frank Family and can't believe it all started 4 years ago when their first little girl, Vivian was just a baby.  From the start Vivian has been a super star model for me.  She has never been afraid of the camera and always ready to have fun and her little sister Natalie is following in her footsteps.  These two little cuties keep me on my toes every second and have some of the most amazing smiles and giggles along the way.  I simply cannot look at their photos without a big smile plastered on my face and I am positive these girls spread a ton of love and laughter everywhere they go.  Below are just a few of my favorite photos from our day together at The Jeffrey Mansion. 

Thanks making our day a little brighter Frank Family!

The Feldmann Family; Jeffrey Mansion 2013

There is no greater compliment to us than a glowing referral and we are very proud to have had so many happy clients!  We were so excited when were contacted by The Feldmann Family for this reason.  We met this super cute family at the Jeffrey Mansion during our November Portraits in The Park session.  They were full of energy and ready for some fun and although there may have been a couple of tears (it's hard when you are so little and so cute) we still were able to capture some amazing smiles!  Below are just a few of our favorite photos from our day with The Feldmann Family.

Thanks for letting us capture your super cute family!

Fred & Mark's Commitment Ceremony; North Bank Park

I have known Fred and Mark for 4 years now and have the honor of being able to call them two of my best friends.  This couple is made of up of two of the best human beings that I know.  Their love for each other and their friends and family is radiant.  So when Fred told me that he was going to pop the question to Mark I couldn't have been more happy.  As a friend I got to hear all the wonderful details of the big day as they were being planned.  When Fred and Mark asked if I would be their photographer I couldn't have said YES any faster!

On September 29th we headed over to The Westin Columbus to photograph Fred and Mark as they got  ready for their commitment ceremony.  From the Westin we headed over to a few of the couples favorite spots in the Short North and Nationwide Arena District.  Then it was off to the ceremony at North Bank Park where the couple committed themselves to each other with a spectacular view of Downtown Columbus.  Below are just a few of my favorite images from Fred & Mark's big day!

  

Congratulations Fred & Mark!  

The Lomonico Family; Whetstone Park of Roses

We started our Portraits In The Park sessions at Whetstone Park of Roses with one of my favorite families!  We have been lucky enough to photograph the Lomonico family for 4 years now (and we even got to be there from the beginning when we shot Lisa and Craig's wedding in 2008.)  It has been a blast capturing their family over the years.  Little Gianna has been a natural in front of the camera all these years and is full of personality and smiles!  You just can't help but smile when you see this family together.  Here are just a few of my favorite photos from our day with The Lomonico's.
