Erin & Ryan E Shoot....

Thanks to Erin and Ryan for driving in from Erie this weekend to have their engagement shoot done down the street from my home.... We scheduled a little later than normal so we could get some really good sunset light, and wow did we hit it just right.... but you be the judge....

What a perfect rivalry to start off their journey together! I love it!

I'd just like to take a moment to thank Mother Nature for her help on this shoot! Amazing light last night girl....

Yet another great couple! Thanks again for driving all that way guys! You can see the rest of the shoot on my site http://www.t1photo.com/ go to the events gallery and then engagement shoots.... Hope you enjoy!

Laurie & Jason E Shoot....

Wow! What a perfect way to start off the Cleveland wedding season! Perfect day, perfect weather, perfect light, and the perfect couple. This is also a perfect example of why I like to do the engagement shoots with my couples.... It allows me another day to meet with and get to know my couples, it is amazing what you learn about each other in just a short hour long shoot with them. When Laurie and Jason asked if they could bring their guitars along for the shoot, I was more than happy to say yes.

Remember what I was talking about when I said the light was perfect? Take a look at this first picture and judge for yourself....

From the beach we went to a cool little old time train station I found only a few minutes from my home/studio. It's amazing what you can find to shoot right in your own back yard, all you have to do is open your eyes when your out and about. My wife may bed to differ, she thinks I look around a little too much when I drive...but in this case, I think was worth it....

Love it!

Ok, so if you would like to see the rest of the images from the shoot, please visit my site http://www.t1photo.com/ and go to the proofing gallery tab. Hope you enjoy! Looking forward to your comments.

Day 2....

Well campers, here we are on day two of blogging.... Don't worry, I won't keep telling you how many days it's been everyday, at least until I hit a mile stone like 5 or 10 days or something like that anyway....

So here we are in wonderful Cleveland Ohio getting pounded by snow once again, wow! It's really coming down out there. This being said, I thought I would showcase some images from weddings gone by.... take us back to warmer, sunny days from this past summer. Hope you enjoy....








First up are a couple from Jason & Bridget's wedding in Destin, FL and one of the highlights of my summer....







We had an incredible time down there doing this one and would love to go back and if anyone is planning a destination wedding down there....













The next wedding up was actually a Trash The Dress Shoot that took place about 3 weeks after the actual wedding. It was also in October and though it was warm enough in the water, the air was starting to get a little nippy.... but I think the shot still shows a look of warmth or days gone by. Kelly and Dan were a great couple to work with and we have also gotten to be pretty good friends since meeting them.


Finally, we have Rick and Nikki.... Now this wedding was in the warmth of a beautiful summer day. So nice in fact that at 8:30pm we were able to walk down to Lake Erie and get some incredible sunset shots. Nikki's father was from Georgia and liked it so much, we had the entire wedding reception come down to the lake for a picture. It was awesome!











Hope this brought a little sunshine into your day! Very much looking forward to the 2009 wedding season and all the sunny days we will have in the not too distant future.....

Thanks for stopping by, feel free to leave comments about the images you see any time....
