| Burtch Family 2024 |

We spent Friday evening with some of our favorite people, The Burtch crew brought smiles, sarcasm, and laughter in great abundance and made an unseasonably warm evening just that much more fun.  The Maumee and it’s fall colors along with the still summer green trees made for great backdrops for not only the family but Brok’s birthday photos!  Thank you Burtch Family for a fantastic evening!

| Short Family 2023 |

Last weekend we got to spend time with one of our favorite groups of people, the Short Family!  We have gotten to watch their girls grow over the years, capturing senior sessions, families, and a gorgeous wedding, we couldn’t ask for a more fun family full of love, antics, and lots of smiles.  We met at the always pretty Opdycke Park and it was adorned with the beautiful spring greens and wonderful weather.  It’s hard to believe that their youngest will be a senior this coming fall, but we are looking forward to what will be another outstanding session.  Thank you Short Family for the many years of smiles and love you have shown us, we can’t wait for this fall!

| Trey Siler DHS Senior 2023 |

We always enjoy our senior sessions, capturing their likes and personalities; after several years in front of our cameras for his back to school sessions, it was his turn on Saturday for his senior session!  We will miss capturing Trey each year, his witty comments, handsome smile, and that perfect serious face.   He has grown so much since our very first session, I now have to look up to him!  Such a gentle and kind young man who we know will do great things.  Thank you for a fun evening Trey, best of luck with the rest of your senior year!

| Ashlee & Austin Maternity 2022 |

We were able to spend our Saturday evening with Ashlee & Austin, such a sweet couple, and capture them as they await the arrival of their first little one!  The weather was perfect as we drove just down the road to a family farm with gorgeous big red barns and a woods that was just beginning to show those fall colors.  Ashlee & Austin were absolutely adorable and their anticipation is evident in all they do.  It was a great time exploring the woods and looking for those just right spots of light that would illuminate these two, Ashlee and her amazing smile and the looks of love that radiate from Austin as he gazes at her.  Thank you both for such a wonderful evening, we can’t wait to meet your little one!

| Kalleigh Fry AHS Senior 2022 |

The cool air has arrived, harvest is well underway, and the trees have finally started to turn the beautiful fall colors of oranges, yellows, and reds.  We had the pleasure of spending last Saturday evening with Kalleigh, an AHS Class of 2022 Senior.  Our first stop was the Henry County Fairgrounds, a place that holds so many memories for our family, a yearly tradition, and our happy place.  Not only do we love it, but Kalleigh does too and it was so much fun capturing her here, walking around the empty fairgrounds, and just being in one of our favorite places.  From her years in 4-H & FFA to Jr. Fairboard, Kalleigh has shined on the jr. fair stage, and it showed in her happiness as we found fantastic photo places.  After finishing here we hopped into the car and head to an old orchard where we found beautiful grasses, trees, and just a little mud.  We had gorgeous light that evening and she looked amazing, thank you Kalleigh for a wonderful fall evening, best of luck in your senior year!

| Zirkes Family 2020 |

Fall is finally here and the weather has been beautiful!  While this year has been unusual to say the least, it has been refreshing to see so many familiar faces!  Two years ago I met Alicia and Matt for their maternity session, they were complete strangers to me then, but today, they are wonderful friends whom I love catching up with!  They recently moved to the Cleveland area, but I was so excited to meet up with them while they were here visiting family.  Warren has grown so much and has such an adorable personality and a love for dinosaurs that you can see we had his dad use to help get him to smile!  We picked up right where we left off and it was so refreshing to see them, laugh, and smiles together.  Thank you Zirkes Family for an amazing evening, can’t wait for our next session!

| Graicen Siler 2019 |

How absolutely stunning is this girl!?  Each year I wonder if Graicen will top her session from the previous year, and the answer every year is yes!  Trying to narrow down sneaks and not show the hundreds that we took was no easy feat!  No matter where we go or what we do, what season it is, or what the weather is doing, she knocks her sessions out of the park!  This year we headed out to the woods and fields, trying to catch the last of the color on the trees before it fell with the upcoming weather!  We had amazing light as golden hour approached and golden hour itself didn’t disappoint.  I had a wonderful lighting assistant in her younger brother Trey, you saw his session a few weeks ago, who was on point all night, we couldn’t have done it without him!  Next year is Graicen’s senior year, she has big plans already for what she wants to do, I can’t wait to pull her visions together!  Have a great Junior Year Graicen!

| Trey Siler 2019 |

This handsome guy with sweet dance moves has just kicked off his freshman year!  I adore our sessions and conversations together, he has such a huge heart and is one of the sweetest guys around.  We headed out to Independence Dam this year and it did not disappoint!  We found some amazing drift wood that had clearly been in the water for a while and there were also some steps just along the shore of the river that had one time led up the wall, perfect for Trey!  I can’t wait to see what this year brings for Trey, best of luck in school!

| Brok Burtch 2019 |

Seeing how much kids change in such a short time is amazing, yearly sessions are a great way to capture those quick changes and I love getting to see clients each year!  Brok’s session was a blast as always, he knows how to keep you on your toes and a smile on your face the whole time!  You might remember him from last year’s session with his famous hot dog shirt; this year he dazzled us with a sweet reptile on a bike at the beach shirt, just as adorable and fits his personality perfectly.  He seems to have grown about a foot since last year and definitely catching up to me!  We walked along the river and found some perfect spots, beautiful trees, and a great broken tree for Brok to climb, the perfect way to end his session as he climbs into the new school year!
