Jenna & Scott 6.11.11

We spent such a wonderful day with Jenna and Scott. The day began at Lighthouse Bible Church in Columbia Station. Jenna was surrounded by her closest family and friends, as they all prepared the final details. Jenna's dress was so beautiful and the lacing on the back was an amazing finishing touch. The day was off and on cloudy, but we did some amazing pictures of Scott and the Gents and Jenna and the Gals before the ceremony. The ceremony was very beautiful and spiritual. Members of their family helped in various parts of the ceremony. After the ceremony, we did a few portraits of Jenna and Scott in the church and headed outside. Right before, we went to snap the first picture outside, the rain came down in sheets. Luckily, the church had an overhang that worked great for raining day pictures. Thinking about our next stop and the rain, we all pulled out our cell phones to look at the radar. It looked great, no rain on Lake Erie. Off to the shores of Lake Erie for some beautiful portraits of Jenna and Scott. We then ended the night with a wonderful dinner, followed by some dancing at the Lorain Party Center. Thanks to Tim C. and all the guys are Artistic Video Creations and Beach Boyz for making it a fun day for all.

Rachel & Aaron 6.4.11

Rachel & Aaron 6.4.11

It is so much fun when you get to photograph a wedding. It is double the fun when you truly know the couple. Rachel is one of our wonderful associates who has been with us for almost two years. Soon after starting, she met her wonderful boyfriend, now husband, Aaron. They planned a beautiful wedding in Cuyahoga Falls, a center point between their hometowns of Kent and Medina. There beautiful ceremony took place at First Church in downtown Cuyahoga Falls. Rachel wore a beautifully beaded dress from Catans Bridal. Her bridesmaid accented her in a beautiful shade of green and all carried a beautiful mix of yellow and white roses from Baumann’s Florist. After the ceremony, Rachel and Aaron headed to downtown Akron. We captured some really awesome and artistic images, while clouds above looked as if rain was going to let loose. We did not have a lot of time, but we maximized our time and the results are amazing. We then traveled to Guys Party Center, where all had an amazing meal and delicious cake by the Cake Shoppe. Ryan, from Beach Boyz Dj Service, played awesome tunes all night and fun was had by all. The Viz Gang enjoyed being together.

Jackie & George 5.28.11

We had been watching the weather all week, hoping that the rain would hold off for Jackie and George’s beautiful outdoor wedding. Fairlawn Country Club was the perfect backdrop for their fairytale wedding day. Pink Petals built a beautiful backdrop for the ceremony location that complemented the flowers so beautifully. Jackie looked beautiful in her simple, but elegant gown from All Brides Beautiful in Hudson. Mark, from Artistic Video Creations, documented the day with us. We spent a few moments before the ceremony capturing portraits of Jackie and George with their family and bridal party. Soon Jackie emerged from the doors on her Dad’s arm to meet George. Their closest friends and families surrounded them. After a beautiful and intimate ceremony, we spent time with Jackie and George on just a few holes of the golf course. Soon, Malcolm and Todd of Beach Boyz DJ Service introduced them into their beautiful reception. All in attendance had a lot of dancing and fun as the night continued. Oh, and about that rain, it held off until the very end of the reception. It started right as we tried to do their sunset portraits. Thank you for a wonderful day! We had a lot of fun!

Jessica & Shawn 5.20.11

Jessica and Shawn picked a beautiful Friday afternoon to wed. Greystone Hall was the beautiful venue for this perfect day. Joanna began by capturing the final moments of Jessica getting ready, while Aaron spend time with Shawn and gents capturing really awesome pictures in the bar area. Once Jessica was set, Shawn met Jessica in the parlor for their “First Look”. Those moments are always so emotional. After giving them a few moments, Joanna and Aaron switched roles and Joanna captured some more traditional images, while Aaron played photojournalist for a while. The couple and the bridal party then headed to Cascade Locks and captured both artistic and fun portraits of all. Upon our return to Greystone, the families met us for their photographs. After that, Jessica and Shawn exchanged vows in a very simple, yet very beautiful ceremony. The dinner was delicious. Everyone enjoyed the line dances of the night. Jessica and Shawn were game for some amazing night images. We spent just five minutes and the results were spectacular. We had a lot of fun! We can not wait for you to see the rest of your images.
