I was able to finally meet Candace & Jose this past weekend. We had an email (business) relationship for weeks because they live out of state and we were finally able to meet face to face for their engagement session. Fortunately, you can’t really tell how exactly cold it was outside and Candace is such an amazing sport! Thank you too for making the time for me during your busy weekend – I had a great time getting to know both of you and can’t wait until your wedding in September!!! Here are my top 10…for now atleast, if was tricky picking these, we had so many great images and very cool backdrops, since the ivy has now changed colors – love this time of year!
Oh and by the way for all you bloggers, I think I found my alley downtown that I will move my desk, too. My ‘office’ will be moving in between two buildings, I have lots of natural light, a nice breeze and gosh, who needs windows?! HA – I’m only kidding, I’m there enough, that I thought it would make sense. I love photographing downtown!

We were able to sneak in to their ceremony site for a peak…

These last two images were for the city lovers ~ though I know Manhattan does not compare at all with lil ole downtown Toledo, it still gives off that city vibe.

Meet Maro & Mike… I had the honor of photographing their engagement session last weekend on a chilly afternoon. Luckily I used the weather to my advantage and these two didn’t mind snuggling too much. I had a great time walking the streets of Toledo with them! I’m looking forward to their quiet ceremony in January!!
Here are some of my favorites.

this is my ultimate favorite…love love the ivy and the little bit of Mike’s hand around Maro.

Well…that’s right. He’s 2 already. Where has the time gone?
We celebrated last Saturday with a few friends over and ocourse cake [yummy cake from Eston's]. It was fun and Grant still talks about his birthday, cake and balloons! Here are just a few to share ~
yes, that is saliva.

Monday morning I met Bridgette & Jason for the first time and it was great walking the streets of Toledo with these two and getting to know one another! They are planning for a warm ceremony in Florida sometime in December next year.
Here are a few of my favorites ~

and here’s my “do not smile one”

Last Sunday, I was able to photograph yet another senior guy for his senior portraits. Thankfully for this unpredicatable Northern Ohio weather, I am still able to stick out a few more sessions outdoors! In fact I have 2 more engagement sessions this weekend! So lets cross our fingers for some sun.
Meet Anthony, a senior at Gibsonburg High School. He’s planning to go to college, near by [just incase he meets the right local gal]…. good luck to you Anthony! It was great meeting you, your sister, Stacy and the dog!
