I’m a photographer, educator, and your new best friend! Everyone has a story, I’m here to capture the essence of yours. When I'm not shooting, I am a fan of having a beer at Rhinegeist Brewing Company, river adventures with my sweet doggo, and bar/restaurant hopping around Over the Rhine. My goal in life is that everyone who enters my sphere becomes a lasting friend. I truly believe there’s nothing we cannot do while supporting and lifting one another up.

Dripping in style and radiating joy, McKinley and Brock’s wedding was nothing but pure love!

When I first met McKinley and Brock they told me that the last photos they had done together made them feel like the they were roommates. No PDA and a lot of awkward posing. It’s an all too common feeling that I hear from my LGBTQIA+ couples, so I was dead set on giving them a more authentic experience.

Their wedding day was high class, top notch rowdiness. Exactly what I would expect from these two power houses. Surrounded by friends and family from across the globe, the Hotel Covington could barely contain the love and joy they emanated.

As you can see, these two are deeply in love, so any images that reflected a roommate like relationship were nowhere to be seen! From a perfect wedding day to a rambunctious and revelatory wedding night, Brock and McKinley‘s wedding remains one of my all-time favorites!

(And if you’re wondering, yes. They did become good friends of ours and the tradition continues. Because I’m not allowed to shoot a wedding without becoming best friends with my couple. 😂)

5 Reasons I’m Obsessed with my Husband
(On his 36th birthday!) ✨🥂🍾✨

1. His sense of humor is perfectly aligned with mine. The only thing better than him making me laugh is when I’m able to get him going even harder. Sitting in bed and having “TikTok Time” or retelling stories about the kids at the end of the day are sacred moments of shared joy and happiness. We usually always end the day laughing.

2. He will go down any rabbit hole with me. Learning Gen Z slang, staying connected to the zeitgeist, crazy true crime stories, page 7 drama… all of it is open season and it makes our life and conversations delightfully chaotic.

3. His support of me, our goals, and our family is unlike anything I’ve ever encountered before. When you spend a lifetime searching for reciprocation only to be let down so many times, the arrival of a true partner is jarring in the best way. He has renewed my belief in the good that runs through us all.

4. He’s hot. Like… really f*cking hot. He’s a whole ass meal and everybody knows it. 🔥

5. He’s just a joy to be around. He approaches life with a gentle softness that often brings me back down to earth. He is a grounding presence for our entire family. He knows who he is, what he wants, how to treat others, how to show love and appreciation, and how to make everyone around him feel special. I certainly hope he knows how beloved he is by our circle.

Happy birthday Big Bear! Your Honeybee and cubs love you! 🥰

What is the point of a photograph?

Why do we learn to bend the light so it falls just so? Learn to frame things perfectly so quiet moments speak?

Where do photos live and if they do, in fact, live, what is the secret to this eternal life? What is the meaning? Where is the purpose?

If it’s not in the cloud, if it’s not uploaded, edited, perfected, refracted, filtered, regurgitated, and reuploaded, then what is the point? The world wants to know.

Is it the photograph we crave? Or is it simply life.

The point of a photograph is the moment lived, between frames, alluded to in the capture of a touch; the silent yearning there. The point of a photograph is a boundless joy that beats from deep inside our chest and makes our stomachs drop in remembrance. The point of a photograph is a single slice of a feeling that once consumed us. A moment we wished would never end. A day time causes us to struggle to remember.

At least that’s what it means to me. But you, tell me…

What is the point of a photograph?
