| Amber Wendt AHS Senior 2017 |

It’s a warm October this year, with many still wearing shorts and t-shirts, but the leaves are beginning to fall and change quickly!  This last Saturday we spent a warm evening capturing AHS Senior, Amber!  From starting at their family farm to a quick couple of miles down the road and finishing off with a great sunset silhouette, we had a great time talking, laughing, and catching up!  It seems like just yesterday I met her starting out in her first year of 4-H and now she’s a senior!  Best of luck this year Amber!

I enjoy getting to work with other local businesses and was excited when B&P Painting contacted me a few weeks ago!  They were looking to create some new work shirts to wear while out on the job and by putting their logo on the back of the t’s, it makes for a great visual for those passing by to see whom is painting!  What a fantastic way to advertise your business while working at the same time!  They opted to go with two color combinations, red and black ink on sport gray t’s and black and white ink on vintage heather red t’s.  One thing is certain, Aaron will be looking sharp while on the job!

| Short Family 2016 |

I love this  family!  You can’t spend time with them and not walk away smiling!  We had a gorgeous fall night for their session at their beautiful home!  Having just done Kenzie’s senior pictures the weekend before, we thought it only fitting to do a special shot for each Katie, Abbie, & Maddie!  With the crops still in the field, some straw bales, mums, and pumpkins, we were able to capture their individual personalities, laughs, and their love of boots and the Steelers!  Thank you for a wonderful evening Short Family!

| AHS Alumni Marching Band 2016 |

It’s marching band season, and that means it’s also time for the AHS Alumni Band to joib the AHS Marching Bluestreaks on the field for Homecoming!  Friday evening October 7, I was honored to be able to capture this wonderful annual event again this year!  As Ryan put it that night, the average age of a marcher on the field dramatically went up, and what a wonderful site that was to see!  Members spanning several generations joining the current generation to make AHS Homecoming special!  Led by the unprecedented and former AHS Director, Phil Hoverman, sounds of the combined bands filled the air for a magical start to a wonderful night!  Looking forward to next year!

| Keisha & Christopher |

As fall sets in, many are enjoying the cooler weather, harvest, and pumpkin treats!  Some are also looking towards spring and wedding planning!  Keisha & Christopher are two of those!  I received a message from Keisha a few weeks ago seeking a custom wedding invitation, something unique to them and their family.  I love to take a bride’s vision and bring it to life, and to top off their design, we added the color of their girl’s dresses as the background on a shimmer card stock!  Congrats Keisha & Christopher on your upcoming wedding!

| Kenzie Short AHS Senior 2017 |

What a gorgeous evening we had for Kenzie’s senior session!  We started at the high school and then traveled to a neighboring town where we walked looking for the perfect locations!  With so many wonderful shots, it was hard to choose just a few for sneak peeks!  This gorgeous, talented, and smart snare drumming field commander has big things in store!  We all had so much fun, from outfit changes to her snare echoing in the alleyways!  Thank you, Kenzie, for a wonderful evening!  Best of luck in your senior year!

| Brian & Melissa Allen 2016 |

Fall has arrived in Northwest Ohio, harvest has begun, and the colors are changing! While the rain chased us indoors for Melissa & Brian’s ceremony, that didn’t stop us from dodging the raindrops to get some great outdoor shots!  This fun loving couple and their bridal party were ready for anything, from trudging through mud puddles to crawling through the weedy pasture field!  It has been a pleasure working with this wonderful family, from invitations and their engagement session, to their beautiful wedding!  Thank you to both the Michaelis and Allen families for allowing us to capture your day!  Congrats Melissa & Brian!

| Hoffman Family 2016 |

Many things have changed since we last captured the Hoffman Family a few years ago, including two new family members, a new pup, and a few more cows!  I spent a warm Sunday morning with this energetic family as we played with kittens and got a few licks from the cows!  Farm families fill our small town and the surrounding areas, and being a farm kid as well, getting to capture and include that into a family’s session makes it even more special.  Especially when you can see the excitement of getting to see those gorgeous Holsteins in the kids’ eyes!  I was, and still am, one of those kids that will walk through the barn in flip flops without blinking an eye, so heading into their barn for a shot with the cows was perfect! It’s always a pleasure and an honor to spend time with this wonderful family!

| Kayla Noggler Baby Shower Invitations |

Awaiting the arrival of a little one is exciting and full of anticipation for everyone!  Some mom’s have a theme for their little one that they carry through from the baby shower, to the nursery, to their first birthday.  A wonderful friend of our family came to me looking for shower invitations that had a woodsy boy theme and after collaborating a bit we created the perfect layout!  In just a couple short months this little one will be arriving, Congrats Zach, Kayla, & Zoey!
