9.26.09 Margo & Joe
Wednesday, October 28, 2009Margo and Joe's wedding is a special wedding for me. Originally I am from Texas, and since I now live in Ohio, Margo and Joe are like our extended family here. I will probably revisit this post, because I am just now getting the chance to edit their wedding, and I am sure there are several pictures that I will want to share.
A quick recap of their wedding weekend: Friday night, myhusband Chris and I were invited to attend the rehearsal dinner at a restaurant in Little Italy. The family style servings at this place were to die for, and I felt that the food just didn't stop coming. As my husband and Joe would joke, Italians are always saying, "Eat. Eat. Eat!" Therefore, we ate. Saturday, the ceremony and reception were held at Maggiano's in Beachwood. Again, the food was amazing and the atmosphere elegant. Although it rained for most of the day, we were able to catch a break between the ceremony and reception and take some pictures in Voinovich Park in downtown Cleveland. You may be wondering why there is a dog picture in this post, and that would be Margo and Joe's dog Sophie Bella, who was present at the reception in spirit and through these pictures, which helped guests find their table. I wish I could take the credit for the idea, but that was all Margo. Overall, it was a beautiful night, and I am thankful that Chris and myself were able to be apart of their special day. We love you guys!

Danielle & Phil 4.25.09
Friday, May 1, 2009
I shot Danielle and Phil's wedding last weekend. However, I felt as though I was a guest. Danielle and Phil are a true and genuine couple. They took care of everyone and every detail imaginable.
I arrived early, as usual, at the hotel where Phil was getting ready. With an untucked shirt and walking through the hallway, he arrived late. Ten minutes later I was knocking on the door to start the day. They both enjoy the detail shots that I capture, therefore, I started with the details. Thirty minutes later I was on my way to meet up with Danielle and the rest of her family. The group was lively and fun. We even had a moment to step outside and attempt a game of Croquet. Since I know nothing about the game, they were generous in explaining the details. None the less, the Croquet was a great photo opp.
Afterward, we headed to the ceremony/reception site. The location had Danielle and Phil written all over it. From the orange hearts on the marquee between their names to the beautifully hand made art piece that adorned the top of their cake, it was beautiful. My favorite piece from the reception site was a wire mannequin with orange ornaments displaying pictures of family members on their wedding day.
Props to Danielle and Phil for inviting me along for the ride!
I must throw in a shout out to My Media Life - DJ Services, they were fun to work with.

Maybe it is because I am surround by so many babies these days that I have had the urge to take their pictures. Here are some of my recent baby portraits of a beautiful little friend of mine. With permission from mom and dad, I am able to post some.
On a side note, I just recently heard that my husband's sister is pregnant and is due 9.9.09! That's easy to remember. We are so happy for them, and of course, I cannot wait to take pictures of my future niece or nephew.
Also, coming this May is my brother's second child. His little son Hendrix will have a lil' sis to play with very soon. I wish I was in Texas to take their pictures all of the time.
Babies. Babies. Babies. They are all around. How fun.
P.S. I know what you are thinking, and no, Chris and I are not prego.
