Weddings

Dia and John October | Stambaugh Auditorium | Mill Creek Park | Youngstown Wedding | Photographer

I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.  ~Anne of Green Gables

October in Ohio (especially the first half), is the most beautiful time of year in my opinion.   It’s true, the sun starts to set a bit earlier and there is a chill in the air, but the light and vivid colors are truly magical.  Dia and John’s wedding was a dream to photograph and be a part of.  Not only are they an absolutely gorgeous couple, they are down to earth and kind people.  They were also up for anything and had no problem going to more than one location for photos!  This was my first time at Stambaugh Auditorium which was such a cool venue!  I have to say, I really loved Youngstown!  There were SO many beautiful places to take pictures.  We started at the Rose Garden (with that overlook gah!) and then headed to Mill Creek Park, finally finishing with a few last minute photos at their reception venue, The Avalon, before the sun set.  Every detail and every moment was truly gorgeous!

After more than a decade of documenting love stories, I remain deeply honored to be entrusted with preserving moments that will become part of your family’s legacy.

Your wedding day is about more than the two of you — it’s about the people who shaped you and the memories you’ll carry forward. I approach each celebration with relaxed intention, collaborating closely with your planning team to ensure every meaningful detail and in-between moment is thoughtfully captured. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident, at ease, and fully present in front of my camera.
