Kate + Matt | Married!

Kate + Matt | Married! It feels like we have known Kate and Matt for quite a while now. Nelli and I photographed Kate’s sister’s wedding on our Anniversary a few years ago. Shortly afterward, Kate booked us for her wedding. When we photographed Kate’s engagement session, we were simultaneously filming a promo shoot for a new website. It was a great time with them and they were naturally very easy to photograph. Toward the end of our session we had a few remarkable things happen; the rain started pouring down pretty hard while we were on the beach. It was one of the few times in which we have had the strobes firing in the rain and I was a little nervous about the combo of storm and electricity. However, right before the rain hit, we saw these beautiful streams of light beaming from the clouds and were able to capture it. We parted ways drenched, but happy. This past weekend we arrived at Kate’s house with similar conditions, with a rain falling and more coming. Sometimes this really concerns us. Having photographed weddings for nine years now, we’ve seen rain dampen the mood of some beautiful people. I wasn’t too concerned on this day. I knew Kate and Matt were going to make the best of it. I knew they understood that love, joy and the experience they were about to embrace would supersede the weather no matter what. That’s the type of people they are. We photographed Kate at her house while it rained. We then departed to the church for the ceremony, during which it rained. But something I’ve seen a few times inexplicably in the past few years happened. By the time they ran through the bubbles, the rain had left and it was beautiful outside. I captured a few pictures of the sun and sky to show you the passing of the clouds. We had a few sprinkles afterward, but mostly just warm sun and even a few of those angelic light rays joined us once again at the beach.  Kate and Matt had the wedding of their dreams by all accounts. And that’s exactly what we think they deserved. Here are a few of our favorite images… Kate + Matt | Married!

Brittany + Neil | Married!

Neil and Brittany are high school sweethearts who have already had many amazing experiences together. They’ve lived in Spain and traveled together. Their wedding was a celebration of their relationship and a joining of two best friends in marriage. The day was filled with beauty. The weather was perfect – warm and sunny with a gentle cooling breeze. The church was beautiful and the reception was decorated elegantly. We had a great time capturing these images. Enjoy…

Aman + Keith | Married!

Aman and Keith came back to Ohio from Nebraska to celebrate their wedding. After meeting at work, they knew they were a perfect match. Aman has a very close family here in Cleveland. It was great to document the special moments of their wedding celebration. We spent the day with them and were able to photograph their relationship at one of my favorite locations. One of my favorite part of the day was photographing the candid moments during the outdoor cocktail hour as the sun went down. Aman + Keith | Married! Here are some of our favorite images…

Keith + Denise | Married! at the beautiful Mooreland mansion amidst their family and closest friends. It was a beautiful sunny day for their outdoor ceremony in the Rose Garden. We appreciated how the reception was decorated with memories from their journey together. These two were a delight to photograph. You could tell how much they were enjoying their time together. Being able to capture their natural joyful reactions in such a beautiful space was great. I started off the day by hanging out with the guys who are all big Cleveland sports fans. Here are a few of our favorite images…

Myles + Giovanna | Married!

Myles + Giovanna | Married!

Myles + Giovanna | Married! at a church with abundant generational history. Myles great-grandparents and onward had all been married at St Paul’s. Their reception on this beautiful summer day was held at the Conrad-Botzum Farmstead. This was a beautiful and amazing day for everyone involved. Myles was the first to get married among him and his four brothers. Giovanna is 9 years younger than her sister. As the “baby” of the home, you could sense this was an emotional and special experience for their family as well. Myles and Giovanna seem to be perfect for each other, as we noticed in the speeches from their family and the way they thoroughly enjoyed being together. Here are a few of our favorite images…
