Michelle & Chris: May 22, 2010

What a wonderful wedding full of joy & love. Cynthia from Cynthia Marie Photography joined me for Chris & Michelle's Wedding. We started out hanging with Michelle at Chatterbox Salon. Then headed to Coe Lake for the ceremony. We had a blast photographing Chris, Michelle & the Wedding Party all around Downtown. And then ended up at Pazzo's for the reception. Heidi from Heidzilla's lent a hand with the ceremony. What a great group of vendors to work with!

When Chris, Michelle & I first met there was a runaway puppy in my neighborhood. They were so concerned and even emailed me about it later. The puppy is great. We see it often. But this just testifies to the wonderful nature of Michelle & Chris. I knew I wanted to photograph their Wedding. I was so honored they choose me. They've been through a lot this past year. I've thought about them quite often. I can't even tell you how very happy I was to be a part of their Wedding. The love between them and their families was very obvious as the tears were shed throughout the day. Even I teared up a few times. The laughter was also a great sign of the love they all share. Thank you so much for making me a part of your day!

Tesa & Mike: May 21, 2010

Oh my gosh! I had sooooooo much fun at Tesa & Mike's Wedding. From the moment I met them I knew I wanted to photograph their wedding. That feeling was even stronger after photographing their Engagement Session.

We started out the day watching the ladies getting ready at a salon. The ceremony was very beautiful and heartfelt. You could tell how loved Tesa & Mike are by their families & friends. Did I mention how much I laughed during the photo session inbetween? We had such a blast and I will never forget the Superman underwear..LOL.

We went to the reception at Birchwood Party Center. There was lots of laughter. And very emotional dances with parents. One of my fav images is Mike dancing with his Mom. If you look, there is a tear running down his cheek. I love sensitive Grooms. It was such a beautiful moment.

Jaz & Eric: May 15, 2010

What can I even say to explain how much fun Deb, Cat & I had on Jaz & Eric's Wedding Day? We started out at Jaz & Eric's new home getting ready for the day with lots of laughter and friends. Then we moved onto the St Ignatius of Antioch which is a gorgeous older Catholic church. Afterwards we traveled to the Cleveland Zoo for some fun images in the Rainforest & on the regular grounds. Then we traveled on the party bus to Flannery's where Jaz & Eric met and back to the Zoo for the reception.

There were tons of fun moments that day. I have a new theme song. Imagine "Terry Terry Goodman" to the tune of Lady Gaga's Paparazzi. Imagine being surrounded by gorillas, big cats, sharks and funky dancers. Then imagine a bus load of the MOST hilarious people you've ever met. Did I mention the yellow slide and the Bride headfirst in the mulch? I don't think we stopped laughing for one moment! My face still hurts from smiling so much!

Thank you soooo much for such an amazing experience Jaz & Eric!!!
