We had a great time getting to know Eunice and Ke these last couple of months and couldn’t wait to cover their wedding.  They planned an intimate wedding with most of their friends and family traveling from out of town and we were honored to be part of their day.  Thomas headed to the Renaissance’s bridal suite to meet up with Eunice and her two closest friends.  Wendy from Just Browsing was the makeup artist and as always,  did an amazing job.  I headed over to their home, where I got to meet Ke and his family.  They planned a “first sight” at Wade Lagoon in University Circle.  We love capturing these moments, especially when the bride and groom light up like Eunice and Ke did!  It’s obvious how much they love each other.  The ceremony was held at The Old Stone Church in Downtown Cleveland.  After the ceremony, we did a walkabout around downtown with the bridal party to capture some fun shots.  The reception was held at the Renaissance Cleveland Hotel in the Ambassador room….so elegant!  The gorgeous flowers were designed by Pieter Bouterse Studio and the cake was designed by Michael Angelo’s Bakery.  The entertainment was provided by The DJ Crew.

Check out a few of our favorites!

Ken and Jenny got married on Sweetest Day!  This past weekend Tom met Jenny and the girls at PJ’s Day Spa in Fairview Park, OH and then headed to her parent’s house to capture her getting into her wedding dress.  Her father seeing her for the first time was a pretty cool to witness.  Gisella met Ken at the church, St. Richard’s Church in North Olmsted, OH.  They wanted a “park like” scene for their creative session, so we headed to Grand Pacific Junction in Olmsted Falls after the “I do’s.”  This spot lends itself for some cool backgrounds and walking distance to Village Park with the covered bridge overlooking Plum Creek.  We headed to Springvale Golf Course & Ballroom for for the reception. Once we got there, we took advantage of the sunset and grabbed the shot of Jenny with fall trees in the background.  Inside, Chris from Absolutely Unbelievable Entertainment gave the introductions and the party got started.  The flowers were designed by Marcia Lange of “Silk Essence”  and the cake  was designed by Elizabeth of  “Cakes of Elegance” – both gorgeous and perfect for Fall.  A shout out to the staff at Springvale, you guys did a great job!

A few of our favorites!

We had a blast covering Jennifer and Matt’s wedding day yesterday.  This was the perfect fall day in Northwest Ohio, but Jen trumped it…….she was simply gorgeous. They had their ceremony at St. Ignatius of Antioch Church.  We love the old world churches we get to visit in Cleveland and this one’s architecture is magnificent.  The vast gothic style windows and dramatic arches lined the long isle way…….thank goodness this one was taken off the list to close.   Once they said the I do’s, we started taking some bridal portraits around the church and then headed downtown with the bridal party.  We had a fun group, but taking advantage of the the beautiful day, we grabbed the newlyweds and headed to one of favorite spots, Rocky River Park.  We love this location for our wedding and engagements shoots…..one of the most requested too!  Jen and Matt were great to work with.  Then off to the reception at Wagner’s Country Inn in Westlake, where Spencer Reynolds of Jerry Bruno Productions was ready to go with the introductions.  The cake designed by Create-A-Cake had an awesome topper….a DeLorean miniature! from Back to the Future…love it, so perfect for them since that’s the car Jen sat in while he proposed  ♥

 Check out a few pictures from their wedding day!

Jen was so fun to work with. Gorgeous.

Matt is the man......very cool portrait of the groom just before the ceremony.

Too Good to Be True

Well, I’m not sure where to start with yesterday’s wedding, there was so much to love!  From the gorgeous gown to the topper on the wedding cake, too good to be true just happened  -  Julie and Sean got married in Canton, OH at the Christ the Servant Parish at Our Lady of Peace Church.  The floral designer that they chose, Chris Schockling, did a superb job with the church and the reception which was held at the Raintree County Club.  I’ve never seen a runner stay put and unwrinkled until yesterday…..incredible design and attention to detail.  The ceremony looked and sounded beautiful! there were two singers, a violinist and a pianist and some good humor from Monsignor Gaetano – he gave the guests a few chuckles throughout the ceremony….loved it!  We had Lisa, of Lisa Sullivan Events, as the Day of Coordinator keeping the day as planned.  Julie & Sean also hired  Red Bicycle Media to film their entire event.    These guys are just too cool, their cinematography skills are awesome and working with them was a pleasure.  Watching their films  make me want to get married all over again!  (Yes Tom, they do! I put it in writing!!)

Julie and Sean chose to have their creative session at the McKinley monument.  First time there and it was a sight to see, 108 steps leading up to the marble domed structure.  I loved the door and the view…it was pretty cool.  It’s a great location and we had a great group to work with.  Once we got to Raintree CC, we got them out on the course for a gorgeous group shot on the bridge.  The reception was entertained by The Cutting Edge from Jerry Bruno Productions - great by the way!  While the band was on break,  Red Bicycle Media presented their same day edit to Julie and Sean and all their guests………Loved it!!

Check out a few of our favorites from their day!

Julie looked stunning in her dress......gorgeous!

...the back of her dress was equally as stunning.

Beautiful portrait of Sean taken by Gisella

Gisella always has the cutest idea's for ring shots...........

Have a great time on your honeymoon!

We love the moms that hire us and the daughters we get to spend the wedding day with.  We’ve had the pleasure of seeing a mom help her daughter’s wedding day come to fruition a number of times and each time is amazing.  This wedding was no exception with mom helping her daughter plan a wedding from Colorado, this wedding came together beautifully. Once we met Pam, we couldn’t wait to meet Elizabeth and Vincent……especially since they are foodies and wine & beer connoisseurs………definitely after our own hearts!  We knew this was going to be a beautiful event and we couldn’t wait to capture this wedding day.   We started off the day by by meeting the girls at Studio Blazon in Rocky River and then we headed off to capture the bride getting into her dress.  Elizabeth was a vision and couldn’t help capturing  gorgeous bridal portraits. Their ceremony was at St. Ladislas in Westlake.  After  the beautiful ceremony, we headed off to Wade Lagoon with the newlyweds and the bridal party.  Once we got there,  we couldn’t believe how many bridal parties were there…..we knew it was a popular location, but I think at one time, we counted ten bridal parties….talk about getting crowded!  We had to think a little outside of the box and I’m pretty sure we captured some beautiful moments.  The Glidden House was our next destination for the reception which was catered by the Spice of Life Catering and Radio Active from Jerry Bruno Productions kept the house rockin’

Check out a few from this past weekend!

Bridal sessions are my favorite.....love this photograph of Elizabeth.

Gisella got this beautiful portrait of Vincent just before the ceremony.

Gisella is the best at capturing these moments......how cute is this?....checking to see where the groom is.

Loved capturing Josette and Craig’s wedding day!  We couldn’t wait to see this wedding day unfold.  You see, Josette’s mom, Ann, helped with all the arrangements since the couple lives out of town and she was so excited for her daughter to marry the love of her life!  Travel and destination was the theme for this wedding and with family and friends traveling from all over the states and as far as London the theme was perfect!  The morning started at their home and when we arrived, a full production was in gear from the girls getting their hair & makeup done – steaming the gorgeous bridal gown & veil -  to filling cups with rose petals.  Such a full house that welcomed us right in!  Once we captured Craig and Josette’s first sight, we headed off to the Lakewood Country Club for some bridal party and family pictures.  After the ceremony, we headed back to the country club to capture the cocktail hour.  The room and tables looked beautiful and the cupcake tower looked awesome from Main Street Cupcakes in Rocky River.  Yum!!  They had Scott from American Entertainment keeping the party going.. it’s great to see empty tables and a packed dance floor!  Check out how cute these two newlyweds are.

Josette was simply gorgeous.

....and Craig was awesome. Love this portrait of him.

what a great reception....and this is what I call hang time!

Love this photograph of Josette and Craig taken at the end of the night. Romantic.

Thomas and I would like to thank Josette, Craig and their families……all of you just rocked it!

We recently had the privilege of covering Jerry and Catrina’s wedding in Akron, Ohio.  They’re an awesome couple we met last year and had a blast photographing their engagement session this past spring.  Catrina was simply beautiful on her wedding day…..gorgeous hair, makeup and what a gown…..absolutely stunning!   Their ceremony was held at St. Bernard-St. Mary’s Parish in Downtown Akron, OH. This beautiful church is a historic landmark and  with an Italian marble altar and life size statues, you can see why.  We shot their creative session in Cuyahoga Falls,  by Falls River Square and a few portraits at their Sheraton suite that overlooks the cascading falls and gorge of the Cuyahoga River.  Their family and friends cheered them on as the new Mr. & Mrs. at Our Lady of the Cedars/Maronite Banquet Center.

Catrina is just a vision on her wedding day.

Jeremia is just too cool here.

Love the old world feel of this beautiful Church.

How cute is this look from Catrina......love it!

Jerry and Catrina planned an awesome wedding and a super fun honeymoon planned in Tennessee!

Wade Lagoon, located just behind the Cleveland Museum of Art in University Circle is one of the most popular places for wedding photography. There are an abundant amount of choices when it comes to backdrops.  You have the beautiful Wade Park itself along with the Cleveland Museum of Art,  Severance Hall, Peter B. Lewis buildings and a plethora of other great choices within walking distance.

A Few of Our Favorites From Wade Oval Park!
