Say hello to baby Joseph! I headed to Cincinnati at the beginning of October to meet this little man and visit his parents. Lauren and I were best friends growing up in middle and high school, and it’s such a treat to now see her as a mom. We walked around the neighborhood even though…
I was thrilled to be able to attend my friend Mitha’s wedding in Chicago– as a guest! I met Mitha in college, and we shared a memorable class senior year called Arts and Human Rights, which was taught by a law professor who was blind, but only some of the time. I also went on a…
I’ve been lucky enough to make three trips to Chicago this summer: to photograph a wedding, for a bachelorette party, and to attend a wedding! Below are some little snippets from all three visits. Trip number one: for Angie & Randy’s wedding. Brunch with a bunch of TAF friends! Trip number two: Thank you to Angie…
I’m thrilled to share these two back-to-back trips to my hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. First I went back in August to attend my friend Lauren’s wedding (as a guest!), and then I returned in September to photograph my friend Alice’s wedding. See it all below! My friend Lauren was wed in this beautiful Catholic Church…
Oh, Cincinnati. I don’t return to Ohio (where I spent my middle school & high school years) nearly enough, but I’ve made a better effort in the last couple years. This spring visit was perfectly tacked onto my Chicago trip. To say the city is undergoing a lot of change is an understatement. Over-the-Rhine, once known…
Back in May, I got to fly to Chicago to photograph a beautiful wedding for my friends Eric and Ninna. Of course, with many of our friends in town for the wedding, we also got to hang out for a couple days before and after. A lot of my photos this trip were from around Jessica and Alex’s…
We walked into the former macaroni factory-turned-artists’ lofts, a character-filled space perfectly befitting Jessica and Alex. After we ascended six flights of stairs, we were treated to the most spectacular gem, with all of downtown Chicago ready to serve as the backdrop to the wedding ceremony. It turns out those 80% chance thunderstorm forecasts were all bluster….
What a beautiful Labor Day weekend in Chicago! I was in Chicago for a wedding on Saturday, but of course, we packed in lots of other adventures while we were there, and it was all capped off with this engagement session for my friends Ninna and Eric. We explored some nature-filled areas of Lincoln Park before…
In mid-July, I found myself taking a spontaneous trip to Chicago to meet Jesse who was there for work. We then commenced with lots of eating and even a bit of boating. Meal one as soon as I got in from O’Hare: Boka, (located next door to Alinea, but we’ll be back for that next…
From one holiday to another, here’s a glimpse back at my Thanksgiving week spent in Cincinnati, Ohio. Homemade mixed berry tarts with almond filling! And homemade bread, made from wild yeast starter which we learned to do in our Sour Flour workshop the week before. Me & my mom at Thanksgiving dinner… and not pictured…
Oh, Ohio. I grew up in Ohio from middle school through high school, but my visits now are few and far between. It was such a pleasure to be back for Karen and Sam’s beautiful wedding in the state capitol and then return to Cincinnati for a week too. We started off in downtown Columbus….
The first week of September, I got to do something I hadn’t done in over six years: attend a wedding as a guest! I headed to Kansas City, Missouri, (and a little bit of Kansas too) to play Jesse’s +1 at our college friend Kellyann’s wedding. I had never been to Kansas City, so of…
