Sarah & Gabriel - Winter Wedding

Every bride is beautiful, every groom handsome and everyday is the perfect day for a wedding!  This was definitely the case on January 23rd when I photographed Sarah & Gabriel's wedding for the Photography Warehouse.  Outside the day was a little overcast and a little chilly . . . but all-in-all . . . great weather for a January wedding in Cleveland, Ohio!

Beautiful flowers and colorful shoes set the mood . . .



Finishing touches . . .


There were lots of hugs and kisses . . .







It was a beautiful ceremony in one of Cleveland's lovely historical churches.











After the ceremony it was off to Grand Pacific Junction in Olmsted Falls.  It was definitely a step back in time and is listed as one of the most authentic and original revitalized downtown historical districts in Ohio. Fabulous Greek revival architecture made the storefronts a photogaphers dream and was exactly what the bride and groom wanted for their pictures.  




Sarah was prepared for a January wedding and looked adorable in her cape and muff.






We had so much fun and everyone stayed relatively warm.



Please join me in wishing Sarah & Gabriel best wishes on their new life together . . .


It was a lovely day, lovely families, lovely photos . . . Many wonderful memories were made.

2010 Wedding Season in Full Swing


2010 will be a wonderful year for weddings!  The first ones are already booked for January and hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can get some fabulous winterscapes.

Here are a few of my favorite moments from last season . . . hope you enjoy!

Chad and Emily at Hale Farm . . . it was a step back in time . . . located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, just 20 miles south of Cleveland, Hale Farm is a picturesque setting on 90 acres.  Charming historic buildings dating from the mid-19th century are clustered around a pristine village green and Emily & Chad's wedding was held in the 1850 Greek Revival Meetinghouse.



The setting was pastoral with the sheep grazing in the meadows . . .



Umbrellas were everywhere . . . A little rain didn't spoil the day or the fun


Chad and Emily were an absolutely lovely couple to photograph and they put so much of their personalities into every detail . . . including writing a poem for each and every guest that was tucked inside each table place card.
