Kendal and Joe's Engagement at Neltner's Farm

His dimples, her infectious laugh, both of their fun loving personalities and great hair...I dont think I could have loved anything more about Kendal and Joe's engagement session at Neltner's Farm.  I first met these two when I shot Natasha and Hank's wedding a couple of years ago.  I was thrilled to find out they wanted me to shoot their wedding at Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park next year.  Its going to be one of my all time favorites.  They are both super creative and plan on DIYing almost everything.

Thank you for a fantastic day Kendal and Joe, I had a blast with you two!     After shooting at the farm, we had this wild idea to do some pictures at the skating rink.  Too much fun!!

Beata Cincinnati Photographer

Whenever I put together a shoot, I usually have a loose concept in mind.  It almost always changes once I start working.  When I met Beata at her apartment for this shoot we were going through her clothes when she showed me this vintage dress.  It was the dress her mother was wearing the first time she met her late father.  I had her try it on and we both knew it was perfect.  She lives in a historic apartment in the Gaslight part of Clifton so we just roamed around her neighborhood.  Everything fell together wonderfully.

Portraits of Artist Tyler Wilkinson for Story Magazine

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing painter Tyler Wilkinson for Story Magazine recently.   It was a treat to spend an hour with him discussing his work and his philosophy on art.  Tyler is The Manifest Galley's first artist in residency.  You can see more of his work here.  Pick up the latest issue Of Story Magazine at Barnes And Noble or Joseph-Beth bookstores in Kentucky.    Tyler's wall of inspiration is full of beautiful work.

Christmas Pictures Downtown

I had a blast running around downtown Cincinnati with this cutie pie.  His momma is a good friend of mine and one of my very first clients.  I am forever  grateful for them and all of the other people who have given me the opportunity to do what I love this year.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday filled with lots of love and lots of pictures to look at on Facebook! ;)

Baby Love

Remember Jessica and Ricky from their maternity shoot I posted here. Meet the newest addition to their family, sweet baby Zoey.  We shot these at Zoey's grandparent's gorgeous log cabin which is loaded with tons of charm and stunning antiques.

Zoey's mother and grandmother both played with this crib as little girls. Before long, Zoey will have her turn with it.
