Capturing the Truth in Every Moment | Cincinnati Lifestyle Photographer
I love these babies so much. I’ve said it a hundred times but HOLY PHOTOGENIC! These two have the prettiest eyeballs and Aubrey has been working the camera since she was a wee babe. Seriously, they need to stop growing up, it’s insane.
There are people in your life that you quickly realize are “your people” when you meet them. These are my people. Compared to the 33 years of my life, I haven’t even known them at long. (3 years) But it seems like forever. I loved the two of them so much already but THEN they brought this sweet little guy into the world and their family just grew more precious to me. I am so hyped to shoot a BUNCH of weddings with Jaz this year and to go exploring Havasu Falls with them next year!! IT’S GONNA BE SO FUNNNNN!! Love you bunches, fam.
Ps. How did she just have a baby 6 months ago?? Holy smoking hot friend!
I met Hannah last year at my senior ambassador photo shoot. My niece Grace, and Hannah are good friends, they are both graduating this Fall! (Whhattt? I’m getting old.) I adore this sweet, artsy, free-spirited girl. You can’t help but smile when you’re around her. She’s full of joy and SO STINKING ADORABLE!! As you’ll see by the last picture, she comes by her beauty honestly. It was so fun to hang out with you both and I can’t wait to see how Jesus uses you in this next part of your life.
The Weimer family is just as sweet as can be. I had such a great time getting to know each of them + capturing their different personalities. I’m SOOOOO happy to be shooting outdoors again. Spring, you are incredibly welcome here in Ohio. Please stick around.
Jen + I have been trying to shoot their family session since November! A scheduling conflict, then rain, and then a black eye all pushed back the session until March, but we finally got it done! I’m sitting here this morning looking at snow on the ground and wishing it was as warm as this beautiful day last week. I’m so happy it worked out and I got to meet this adorable family.
Logan + Nolan are quite a pair. One is spunky and the other a little more reserved. One was cheesing for the camera and the other one hiding from me. We had so much fun exploring at Rowe Arboretum!
A few weeks ago I shot my very first styled shoot. I’ve seen plenty of other styled shoots but the thing that really drew me into this one was the theme. Evergreen!! I am obsessed with greenery. Give me all the green weddings! So, yeah, I was totally in. Christine did an amazing job organizing this beautiful shoot and all of the vendors (listed at the bottom) were incredible. If you are a future bride and you are reading this, GO TO THEIR INSTAGRAMS! You’ll be amazed by the talent that was represented. Ok ok. enough rambling you’re here for the pretty!

If you’ve followed along my photography journey for any amount of time you have probably seen this gorgeous couple plastered all over my web page. Well, they had a child and she’s absolutely perfect. Miss Gwendolyn Faye is so beautiful and so so so loved. Welcome to the FRamily, little lady.
Guys, this photo. It made me gasp. It made me tear up remembering nursing my own sweet babes for the first time.
Tyler + Baihley’s wedding was my very last wedding of the year. It was also one of the hardest weddings to blog. Not for lack of beautiful shots, quite the opposite. I’ve tried SO SO SO hard to narrow this down but I can’t seem to take any more photos out because I love their love. So many times during their day they were surrounded by tons of people but I’m not sure they even knew. It was just the two of them all day long. In their own little “love bubble”.
A few things I should mention… Tyler is a photographer and scoped out the church’s dilapidated balcony for their first look. SERIOUSLY?? GORGEOUS! Also, the park we did photos at is in my neck of the woods, and I’ve been waiting for the perfect opportunity and the perfect couple to use it. NAILED IT!!

Olivia is absolutely stunning! It was no surprise to me either because I shot her sister’s senior pictures 2 years ago. Beautiful genes obviously run strong in this family! Shout out to my girl Sarah Crain for always doing an amazing job on hair & make up for my lovely senior girls.
I have photographed Ryan + Hannah quite a few times in the last 3 years including their wedding day so I was totally stoked when they contacted me about maternity photos. One of my favorite things about my job is getting to watch my couples and families grow. It’s such an honor to be asked to photograph each milestone and know that these are photos that they will cherish forever. Photos that their little ones will hold in their hands one day and study how their mom and dad looked when they were excitedly awaiting they arrival. Thank you for trusting me with these beautiful milestones.
