Welcome to our Blog!

First we want to thank all of our clients from this past year. We had an amazing 2009 wedding season, we shot over 100 weddings this past year! So thank you to all of our fantastic couples, and congratulations! 

We had a very busy season last year, we know that we really let the blog go! But we are so excited to start posting some of the amazing weddings we had the pleasure of being part of...so that's what we're going to do this season.

Thanks for taking the time to check out our blog and our photography!

Jaime & David

Married May 30, 2010

Steve and Chris had the chance to work with some of their favorite vendors at the Hilton Netherland.  Dawn with Details by Dawn did a fantastic job on this wedding. Kevin with Ford Ellington Florist along with Goodwin Lighting made the Hall of Mirrors come alive.

What a beautiful backdrop, Ault Park.  There are so many different looks you can get out of one location.

David was so excited to see Jaime!

The Netherlands Art Deco style gives every wedding that timeless look. Steve took that timeless look and made it  modern.

This is one of my favorite shots from this blog! The light really makes Jamie and David pop from the location. Great work Steve!!

With the collaboration from Dawn, Kevin from Ellington Florist and Goodwin Lighting  they transformed the Hall of Mirrors to a gorgeous ballroom.  

The couple did the Hora which Steve caught one angle and Chris got the other.  The couple will never forget the joy they shared.

Thank you so much Jaime and David for letting Steve and Chris share in your special day. It looks like you both had an amazing time.

Nicole & Andres

Married May 30, 2010

Nicole and Andres reception was  at the Hilton Netherland Plaza, Hall of Mirrors

Nicole and Andres moved up to Cincinnati from Miami and decided have what they consider a destination wedding for their guests.  The couple wanted to make sure their guests felt welcome in their new city. They hand made many of the wedding favors and other details throughout the wedding.  You can really tell in the photos that the couple had a great time and so did their guests.

Nicole’s flowers were amazing, adding the feathers gave it a real romantic style. One of my favorite looks right now.

Holy Trinity Church is a great backdrop to this beautiful wedding.

The couple watching their same day edit video from Studio Z. I have to say, you should go to his blog and check it out.

It was an amazing day, Steve and Chris both had a great time. Dora Manuel, Vivia Bella Events did a fabulous job making the couple be able to enjoy every moment of their event.

Thanks to the wonderful couple for having us share your special day.

Marie & David

Married  May 22, 2010

Ceremony held at Saint Mary Cathedral- Basilica and the Reception was held at The Grand in Covington

This couple was so much fun to work with. Steve &  2nd shooter Shanna  had the chance to go to many different places for their photographs. They even got to shoot across the street from our studio. What a great idea Steve.

What a beautiful backdrop for a wedding- Saint Mary Cathedral- Basilica

I think Steve was actually on the floor for those last few shots. Love the reflections from the floor.

I have to say again what a great idea to shoot across from the studio. Love the underneath of the bridge.

A great moment that both father and daughter will never forget. 

Marie and David thank you for letting us join you on your day. It looks like you had a great time and I know Steve and Shawna did too.  Also thanks for letting me know who helped on this special day even though you were still on your honeymoon!

We couldn’t have asked for a better day. I got a chance to work with some of my favorite vendors, Cecilia Rose, Matt Pine, and Brennan Scanlon we have gotten the chance to work together for many years and it is always fun to work with them again.

Everyone involved was in such good spirits it made the day go smoothly.

Congrats to the new couple Austin and Aaren you were great to work with!
