Olivia | Those Eyes | Baby Girl

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

OOOO so full of life! Love those toddlers.

Olivia had the best day. Her mother told us she would be a handful but we knew her mom was not telling us the truth. Olivia was amazing, fun and full of smiles!

I think it was us :-) In fact I’m sure it was.

Olivia has such a big personality and expressive face. Her eyes are huge and so pure and full of life! WOW! Being outside was not new to her as she watches her brother play football every weekend. Olivia had a blast and we had an equal time photographing her and capturing the true Olivia.

Tanya and Brian, thank you so much for allowing your precious daughter to grace our lenses and to capture her awesome beauty!

Hannah | 2011 Senior | Warren, Ohio

Monday, November 29th, 2010

I went to write this blog and thought, wait, I know I wrote this before, so I checked and no, no I did not.

Why does this seem so familiar to me, then it hit me.

Hannah is the last of three sisters that Lisa Nikole has had the pleasure of shooting.

First came Cassie! I had a blast shooting Cassie out at a local church property. She was so fun to shoot and ready to do whatever, her mom even told me of a shot we did that they both laugh at today… Nice LOL. But, that was a few years ago!

Here is Cassie

Next came Annette, Annette had darker hair and a different look. She had a more vintage appeal and her shoot was done at the Warren Amphitheater in Ohio.

Here’s Annette

But it’s not their day, it was Hannah’s day, It was an honor to shoot the last of the sisters. We traveled from Missouri and shot Hannah on a free day before a wedding we had in Cleveland.

As with her sisters, Hannah was unique and her own person. She was a blast to shoot and it was so much fun getting caught up on the family talking with mom!
Hannah was shot again at the Amphitheater area in Warren, Ohio. Her smile was amazing and we had an awesome time… so without anymore waiting…

Here is Hannah! Last but not least! Hannah you ROCK!

Anthony & Phyllis | WOW | Circle of Love

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

Phyllis hired us on spot, last year at the Cleveland Ohio Metro Bridal Show. She saw an amazing album we did from Graphi and had to have it for her own special day. We of course were honored to cover her special day!

Lake Erie, I never expected it to look as amazing as it did.

It was supposed to rain, but what we got was a sun filled summer day that was more then amazing and then a sunset that was WOW!

A rock ledge that led to more dramatic images and a couple that were so much in love.

I’m not going to drop any ages here (considering I conceal mine) but Phyllis and her new husband were in love like teenagers. A beautiful loving couple with such a deep concern for each other and as deep a respect.

It was an honor, to meet them, their families and friends.

One of the most memorable events for me as a photographer is I took the back of the chairs, I wanted to capture Anthony’s first glance as Phyllis headed up the aisle. To my surprise, Anthony never turned around. I waited and I watched and I could see the anticipation on his face, but he did not turn. I later asked him why and he said, ” I wanted my first look at her to be when she was standing next to me” Yeah that was an awww… moment.

There was so much thought and consideration into the aspect of their wedding day, it was so refreshing to be a part of it.

Happy Memories Phyllis and Anthony!!!
