I remember back when Leah, Jack, and I met for our very first meeting. We connected over mutual friends and instantly knew we would be a good fit for each other. The excitement Leah shared about having me as her photographer was so comforting and only made me even more excited to shoot their big day.

I always think there is something special about getting ready in the comfort of you own home. I met the girls at Leah's parents house, which had a gorgeous sun room that was perfect for getting ready photos and all of the little details. While Leah and her bridesmaids were finishing up their hair, I started off the day shooting some gorgeous details consisting of my all favorite pastel colors. The dusty blues and blush colors are one of my favorite wedding trends right now.

I really do love shooting weddings in a new location. I love the challenge and excitement for finding a perfectly lit location for portraits. After shooting many weddings around Columbus, this is the first time I had the opportunity to photograph a reception at The Vue. This was a beautiful space filled with the perfect mix of rustic and modern decorations. It is also in a prime location downtown which allows the opportunity to take a variety of portraits and even sneak away in the evening for some gorgeous sunset photos.
