Cody + Patty | Kentucky Wedding Photographer | Riverside Gardens

I met Patty nearly a year ago at Cody’s brother’s wedding (how cute are Jake + Becca). Of course I noticed she was wearing an engagement ring and was disappointed to find out she already had a wedding photographer booked. Not only because she is absolutely stunning but because she was SO sweet and thoughtful. She wasn’t in Becca’s wedding party but stepped in and helped fix the bride’s hair and just be helpful in any way possible. I adored her from the day I met Patty, as I’m sure many people do.

Fast forward a few months later and I get a message from Patty about her photographer going out of town for her wedding date… we were both SO EXCITED I was still available! Since I already knew Cody + Patty (and Cody’s family) from last year’s wedding, I knew it was going to be a fun day and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Check out those reception photos at the end! THAT is how you party hard.

Josiah + Bethany | Cincinnati Engagement Photographer

There are a lot of words to be said here. I want to save some of my extreme sentiment for the wedding blog post but here’s what you should know: Bethany is my niece. My oldest niece. I was 13 when she was born so I was prime babysitting age for her and her brother. They even lived with us for a little while when I was a teenager. Basically it boils down to this: we’re close. I feel incredibly protective of her so when she told me she was going to marry Josiah I wasn’t ready for it. (She’s 2 years older than I was when I got married, she was ready… I just wasn’t). But then this boy started coming around and the more I’ve gotten to know him, the more I love him. I’m excited to capture your wedding day but even more excited to do life beside you guys and see where Jesus takes you.

Ps. Stop being the cutest humans on the planet. Enough, already!

Zach + Jenesis | Cincinnati Family Photographer

A little over a year ago I stepped out of my comfort zone and attended a gathering of Cincinnati creatives through The Rising Tide. I’m so incredibly glad I did. That night I met so many talented and beautiful people. One of them was Jenesis. She is the artist behind Pied Paper Goods and she’s one of the kindest humans I’ve met. Zach, Jenesis, and a few other friends also opened up an AMAZING coffee shop in my neighborhood last year called Brick Coffee. (Go check it out, it’s seriously YUM!). Just to round off all the things on their plate; he’s a teacher, she’s a nanny and a worship pastor. Seriously guys, way to make us all seem totally lazy. And if you talk to either one of them they are willing to sacrifice what little time they have left to love on other people. Thank you both for being a great example of the sacrificial love of Christ. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!
