Wow. What a roller coaster ride life has been lately with so much uncertainty in this season of pandemic.  But I know one thing for sure, Dan and Katie are always going to make it through the tough times together!  There were moments when I was very concerned about what their wedding might have to look like (concerns I did NOT share with the bride, of course hahaha...mama didn't raise no fool!), but God's blessings were so evident in their day.  Though plans changed, things looked different than originally intended, safety was of concern, and at least 200 hundred of the guests joined us virtually instead of in the church, Dan and Katie's love shined SO BRIGHT!  This day was so joy-filled for everyone present.  Maybe they were just excited to be with actual, live people in the flesh again, but I think its because of the kind of people that these two are.  The new Harrison's tied the knot at the same church where 10 other Harrison couples before them, and I know this successful marriage legacy will continue with them.  These two are beloved to me, and I am so thankful that our paths crossed. Dan and Katie, what a privilege it is to know you, and I hope these images bless you for the rest of your lives!

Bobby and Liz's Backyard Wedding in Western Pennsylvania | July 17, 2020 | Indiana, PA

7/23/2020

 
Cleveland, Akron, Northeast Ohio Wedding and Engagment Photographer - Intimate Summer Backyard Wedding in Indiana, Pennsylvania Amid Covid Pandemic with Bride and Groom Celebrating With Family
This past weekend, I had the profound honor of photographing the wedding of my little {read: not so little} baby brother, A.K.A trying to coherently push camera buttons while bawling my eyes out.  Like Pete and myself, as well as so many other couples this year, my brother and his new wife Liz had a large wedding celebration planned for July in southwestern PA, but when Covid hit, it completely derailed their plans.  They decided, however, that they were still ready to be wed, so they moved forward with a smaller wedding in the backyard of the house we grew up in.  In a way, it seems like it was the most fitting thing possible for my brother, the most sensitive and nostalgic person I know.  He loves his home.  It seems only right that he walked my mom down the aisle to her seat past the place that a dirt pile used to sit where he and his childhood best friend and now Best Man used to play for hours with their kid-sized backhoe.  Past the deck where we would watch the 4th of July fireworks over Mack Park as Nana made us say "Oohh" and "Aww" because that's what you're supposed to say when you watch fireworks.  Past his "pitching mound" in the backyard where he threw the ball for so many hours that he rubbed the ground raw.  To the corner where our swing set used to sit in the yard before it became rusted and outgrown.

Jackie & Joey's Intimate Winter Wedding at Welshfield Inn | Burton, OH | February 9, 2020

Cleveland, Akron, Northeast Ohio Wedding and Engagment Photographer - Intimate Winter Elopement at Welshfield Inn in snowy Burton, Ohio
Jackie and Joey wanted something small and relaxed for their wedding day, and they chose to hold their celebration at the Welshfield Inn in Burton, OH.  Jackie is one of my coworkers at the hospital, and for weeks, we were hoping for snow because she wanted a snowy wedding day so badly. And we were fortunate because that is what she got!  Jackie and Joey said "I do" in front of a small group of friends and family and enjoyed a sit-down dinner together with cheesecake for dessert.  I loved the details of Jackie and Joey's day that honored her father who passed away from cancer.  Joey wore her dad's old paisley tie, and Jackie had a necklace with his fingerprint draped around her bouquet.  I also loved the bond that Jackie had with her sweet mom and watching her mom's expression as she zipped Jackie up into her wedding dress.  I know Jackie's dad would have absolutely relished the opportunity to walk his little girl down the aisle, but Jackie's sister filled in for him and escorted Jackie by the arm as she walked toward her new groom.  Congratulations Jackie and Joey!  Many years of love and happiness for to you!

Sadie & Zach's Wedding at Sun Valley Banquet and Party Center | Chagrin Falls, OH | May 25, 2019

Cleveland, Akron, Northeast Ohio Wedding Photographer - Chagrin Falls Coral and Navy Wedding at Sun Valley Banquet and Party Center
Sadie and Zach.  Oh, where to begin with these two.  I am so glad that that little, fancy black box of mine led me to these two.  They feel like a sista from another mista and a brotha from anotha motha. And their big day was just fantastic.  Their awesome group of friends and family is a testament to how amazing these two are, but it's not just because they are amazing in and of themselves, it's because their Heavenly Father shines His light right through them.  And their big day majorly reflected that fact.  One of my favorites moments of the day was listening to their story (which probs should be a plot of a rom com, by the way) during the ceremony.  They fought for each other but always put their relationship with Jesus above their own desires, even when that meant they had to separate.  But as every rom com should end, these two found their way back together, and this is just the beginning for them.  Of this I am sure.  I love you guys so much.  Hope these images bring you joy and help you remember this day for the rest of your lives. :-)
