Alex Class of 2018 | Cincinnati Senior Photography

Alex is the last of the three Detcher children to get their senior pictures taken by me. I also used to change his diapers, so yeah I’m old and embarrassing. I love this family so much and I’m honored that they have trusted me for the last several years to capture this momentous time in each of their children’s lives. Praying for all of you as you transition to adulthood and empty nest-hood. Love you!

Alex + Nikki + Emmalynn + Guthrie | Cincinnati Family Photography

Nikki is a talented photographer here in the Queen City. We met on Instagram through mutual friends and I reached out about trading family sessions this Fall. I’m so glad I did, her family is so stinking adorable!! Can we just talk about how difficult it was to narrow down the photos of Emmalynn and her daddy to share with you? MAN! So hard!! They’re so sweet together, I can hardly stand it.

 

 

When the session is over, and mom and dad are rad… you puddle jump!

Grace Class of 2018 | Cincinnati Senior Photography

Grace Kennedy, Gracie Lu Who, Bagel Belly… my baby niece is a senior. I have loved this girl her whole life. Gracie is one of the funniest, and most caring humans I know. She feels deeply and loves fiercely. She’s 17 and still sits on her dads lap, still wraps her arms around her momma, and holds her friend’s hand as they walk down the street. Her intense love isn’t limited to people though, she’s also very smart and hopes to start veterinary school next year. I’m super proud of her but also feeling older today than usual. Stop growing up, Lu. Your momma and I will just be at home crying today if you need us.

ALSO… HELLO ISNT SHE STUNNING!?!

 

Mike + Courtney + Carter + Griffin

How can Carter be turning 2 already? I shot his newborn session what seems like just a few months ago. It’s so weird how fast time flies by as you get older. I worked with Courtney for a long time at Skyline. I think we’ve know each other 15 years … don’t do the math, let’s just pretend were still teenagers. I had so much fun hanging out with these four, Carter + Griffin are just the sweetest little wild boys!

 

Jesse + Jazmine + Baby Boy | Cincinnati Maternity Photographer

When Jazmine asked me if I had any spots in mind for their session, I knew exactly where I wanted to go! A greenhouse, across from a lake? Uhhh yes please! Bonus: A wildflower field! All my favorite locations wrapped up in one session.

I simply cannot wait to meet the sweet boy. He is going to be the coolest kid around, mostly because his parents are the most precious humans on the planet. I love them both (all 3!) so much. I’m thankful God put you in our lives & I can’t wait to see you both be amazing parents.

   

Ryan + Kaitlyn + Evie + Hayes + Rowan | Cincinnati Family Photographer

Ryan first contacted me about gifting a family session to his wife for Mother’s Day. How incredibly thoughtful and sweet? They wanted to wait until Miss Rowan was a little bigger and so we scheduled it for August. This family is beyond beautiful and so fun! Evie is just such a sweet girl and a big helper to her momma, I can tell! Mr. Hayes is a typical boy and does things his own way. And are you even kidding with Rowan? She’s basically the most beautiful babe ever! Look at those cheeks! I had so much fun getting to know your family and hanging out at your beautiful home.

Dustin + Sarah + Micah + Emilynn | Cincinnati Family Photographer

Sarah is an AMAZING hair and make up artist. Seriously!! She has done H&MU for my senior ambassador shoots for the last three years. Check out my latest one and be awed by her skills! Or you can head over to her web site to book yourself an appointment. I highly recommend her to any and all of my future brides. I finally got to meet her adorable family and photograph their love. Micah has my heart, this boy is spunky, funny, and digs animal documentaries. Mis Emilynn was a bit shy but completely adorable and so sweet! It was great to finally get to hang out with the other 3/4 of the Crain Family!

Jordan + Sarah | Cincinnati Couples Photographer

Sarah was my daughter’s kindergarten teacher last year. I’m still getting used to referring to her by her first name. When Jordan + Sarah showed up for their session I basically told them, “Just be yourselves and be cute.” Uhhhh they totally nailed it! Adorable overload coming your way!! Thanks for all you do Mrs. Bellanti + to Jordan for being a great supporter for, what I can only imagine is, an exhausting job! See you in a few weeks back at school! (Oh man, summer is almost over… insert mixed emotions).
