This has been my busiest wedding year to date.  I mean, why not add being a new mom into the mix? But time flies when you’re having fun.  Yep- I went there.

This wedding is giving me all the feels- about everything.  As I edited throughout the week, I experienced some self discovery and maybe even some breakthroughs in my thought process as a photographer.

August was a free month for me.  And let me tell you- it came and went.  I had a busy stretch through June and am now heading into another busy stretch in September.  Starting with this beauty.

With May-early July being a busy stretch of weddings, this month has been a nice break to slow down and gear up for the second half of my wedding season.  But engagement sessions like these are what gets me hyped up to get back out and into doing what I love.

After a rainy start to my wedding season, I’ve definitely been loving these warm summer wedding days. And not only that, but outdoor ceremonies and open air dance floors- double bonus!

Well it seems this year we are going to have to choose between rain and extreme heat.  And if I’m being honest, I’ll take the heat.  Especially when it brings that gorgeous sunlight with it.

Perfect “golden hour” glow, emotion, romance- there are so many reasons I loved this day.

I’m not crying, you’re crying!  Okay, yes.  I shed some tears on Saturday.  When did I become such a sap?

I love when couples decide to do things a little different for their wedding.  Don’t get me wrong- I love a good, traditional wedding.  But it’s fun to change it up a bit and experience unique touches.

May.  Here in Ohio, it could be sunny, rainy, or even snowing.  You really still never know just what to expect.  But Monica and Stephen landed on one of the most perfect spring days.
