The rain in September kept us from capturing Olivia for her senior session, but last weekend we had beautiful, cool weather, with just enough fall color still on the trees!  We had a fantastic start downtown and even found some new locations there and then headed out to our local nature preserve for a walk on the trails and some pops of color.  Olivia’s gorgeous smile lit up every photo and she knocked her session out of the park.  While we know the nice weather will be gone before we know it, we have loved all of our fall outdoor sessions this year and hope the nice weather continues for a few more weeks!  Thank you Olivia and family for a wonderful Sunday evening.  Best of luck with the rest of your senior year!

Love and Laughter were in the air last Saturday as we headed out to Independence Dam to capture Chris & Beth’s engagement!  With unusually warm weather for October and lots of great color, it was the perfect backdrop for their session.  Having known Beth for quite some time, it was wonderful to meet Chris and see the smile that he brought to her and the light that shown in her eyes.  It was great to catch up and find unique spots and some breathtaking views of fall beauty across the Maumee River.  Congratulations Chris & Beth, thank you both for a wonderful evening!

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!

This year we headed out to Opdyke Park for their family session and it did not disappoint!  Colors are beginning to pop in the trees and the air has been warm in the day and crisp and cool at night.  Mason kept us entertained with his wit and jokes as usual while we looked for the perfect place for everyone.  We look forward to this full of life, sweet, and kind family every year!  Have a wonderful fall Grooms Family!

In ten years we have met so many wonderful people, and the Hamman Family is one of our favorites!  We met up at their cabin last weekend to capture Jace’s last milestone session, he is 1!  We had great, mild weather for December and Jace took full advantage by airing out his little toes!  With the help of big brother Jensen we were able to capture some of Jace’s many facial expressions.  It has been wonderful getting to see Jace grow through his first year and we will miss seeing him every few months, Happy Birthday Jace!

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!

Taylor & Josh were beaming this last weekend as we captured their maternity photos!  The excitement that their little one will be making his appearance in a few short weeks was everywhere and it was such an honor to spend the evening with them.  We braved a few mosquitoes in the woods for some beautiful results!  Taylor had mentioned she wanted to do some water photos and it was a great idea, she was stunning.  When couples are willing to take a different step and do something out of the ordinary, the results are always spectacular.  These next weeks will go fast and that little guy will be here before you know it, Congratulations Taylor & Josh!

Our local schools are back in session, that means seniors are in full swing, and Rusty helped to kick off our fall season with a one of a kind session!  We started by meeting this wrestler at the athletic complex and then headed fishing, our first senior to take us fishing!  After a small hike down a rocky slope in warm, humid temperatures, and a couple casts later, the avid fisherman caught his first fish in this particular spot.  As the sun began to set and the mosquitoes arrived, a storm started rolling in as we wrapped up our last set.  Congratulations Rusty and thank you for a exciting evening, best of luck in your senior year!

This winter we have had more snow than in previous years and the fields around us have looked so nice with their blanket of white!  Graicen had mentioned wanting to do a snow session for part of her senior photos and we were lucky to have a beautiful weekend of snow, sunshine, and mild temperatures; so we headed out to the woods for some fun in the freshly fallen powder!  She once again rocked her session, there is nothing we can’t do that she doesn’t make look amazing.  Thank you Graicen for the honor of capturing your senior year, we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!

We have had some beautiful days this November, but I’m sure that cold weather will be here before we know it!  Though it was a bit chilly last weekend, that didn’t stop us from capturing this handsome young man!  I can’t believe Elijah is a senior, I’ve known him since he was small and it’s been a joy to watch him grow into a kind, funny, and genuine guy!  We found some amazing places in the alleyways of Napoleon and he showed me some trails by the river that I never knew were there and can’t wait to use again.  His guitar made for the perfect accessory, he even played a few tunes for us as we were out and about!  I can’t wait to see where the future takes him Elijah, thank you for an amazing evening!
