As you can see from my blog posts today we didn’t have a wedding this weekend but we did have 5 shoots on Saturday and 5 on Sunday (I’ll be posting about my exciting new venture that I shot on Sunday very soon.)
We met up with Trisha and Kyle at Wildwood park on Saturday afternoon. The rain held off for the whole session which was great. We had a lot of fun getting to know Trisha and Kyle and we can’t wait till their wedding in June. I am looking forward to seeing all the peacock feathers and the mariachi band
Here is a sneak peek….
Enjoy!
Trisha has a great smile, especially when she is laughing…
She also had on a super cute outfit including great shoes
As always we love comments, they make us happy

This past saturday we met up with nikki and aaron downtown. It was a little rainy but they were troopers through it all. We had a lot of fun with the two of you and we hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

We look forward to your wedding in the fall.
Today we met up with Sarah and Doug downtown (one of my favorite locations to shoot!) and we had a blast.
Here is a sneak peek from the session and we are really looking forward to your guy’s wedding in June, I think it will be a ton of fun if today’s session is any factor. Sarah is going to make a stunning bride!
Enjoy! And as always we love comments
New Favorite, I love the toledo skyline

This afternoon Joe and I met up with Monika and Allen at Wildwood park for their engagement session, and since we had it planned for some time now with them living out of town we couldn’t reschedule even though we got 6” of snow last night 
I thought spring was here.
They were both a ton of fun and quite the troopers with all the snow.
Monika is going to make a beautiful bride and we can not wait until your wedding
Enjoy the sneak peek and as always we love comments
We had such a good time with the two of you, have a safe trip home.

Over the weekend we met up with Heidi and Mark for their engagement shoot. When we first discussed what location they wanted, they weren’t sure and said one of the things they have in common is their love for books and reading so what better place than the library. And I don’t know a more beautiful library around than the Main Branch of the Toledo Public Libraries, downtown on Michigan Ave, so that is where we headed.
The library provided many options and it had a super fun children’s section. We had a great time meeting Heidi and Mark and we can’t wait till their June wedding, which is coming up fast (so is the warmer weather )
Here are a few sneak peeks from your session…..
Isn’t she going to make a beautiful bride!
Mark said he knew on the second date that this was the woman he was going to marry, he said that it was just convincing her, which I have a feeling it didn’t take much convincing
Now some fun in the children’s section
Heidi and Mark we had a lot of fun on Saturday, good luck with all the last couple months of planning
As always we love comments so feel free to leave them!

I was so excited today when I looked out on my porch and saw I had a package, and it was a big one (I love getting mail and packages so without even knowing what it was I was excited). When I saw that it was our new samples of our fine are canvases I was ecstatic.
So you might be asking yourself what are these fine art canvases.
They are a new product that we are offering starting this year. Fine Art Canvases are your photographs from your wedding, engagement session, family session, senior session, etc, put printed directly onto a Canvas. They are then professionally stretched onto a 1 1/2″ think wooden frame, like any fine piece of artwork (paintings) normally are.
Here are some photos of our new samples and let me know if you want to see them in person. If you are interested in getting one from a past session we will be glad to rerelease your session so you can pick which photo you want to have put on canvas.
The exciting package that started my day off in a good mood
This one is a 20×30″
This one is a 30×30″ and has multiple images and the birth-date and child’s name these are great to do with a new born and show off all those precious little body parts and facial expressions, because they grow so fast!
Since they stretch them I can add a child’s name on the side (example below) or the photo just continues onto the side which gives it a beautiful finish.
We have found that many people are afraid to hang large photos in you house, people tend to think an 11×14 is large. These are beautiful pieces and memories of your family don’t be afraid to show them off. When you come to a session or sit down to order photos or a canvas think about where you want to hang it. The photo below shows you how small the canvas looks on our wall, for a better impact we should have gotten a larger one and that canvas is a 20×40″ so it’s no tiny 8×10. We just want you to think about where your photo is going and what kind of impact you want to make. Large photos are truly pieces of art and should be treated as such (at least in my opinion )
Fine Art Canvases come in most sizes (starting at an 8×10) and we can even customize sizes if it needs to fit into a particular place.
Prices for the fine art canvases start at $150 and go up to $2000.
Contact me if you are interested in one or finding out more information about them.

Yesterday evening we met up with Toni and Wayne at Maumee Bay for a fun engagement session. Maumee Bay is beautiful and provides a lot of great backgrounds, especially for a romantic engagement session. Without a doubt you can see how in love Toni and Wayne are and how much fun they have together.
Here is a sneak peek, we hope that you enjoy!
I love this sunkissed one…
They are showing their fear of the “whales”
I love this one, I feel it captures the fun they have in their relationship….
We hope you love them, let us know what you think, leave a comment.
LOVE.
