Nicole & Chris | Outdoor Warren Ohio Wedding

Warren Ohio Wedding My favorite thing about Nicole and Chris is how much they wear their hearts on their sleeves when it comes to each other. Not one minute went by on their big day where they weren't together or at least keeping an eye on each other. It was incredible to watch how present they were with each other while everything else was going on around them.

These two met in DC after Chris finished serving with the Peace Corps. Nicole is quick to mention that she actually asked him out on their first date as a thank you for helping her move. She is one smart lady.

"From the time we first started dating, I knew he was special," Nicole said. "His personality is infectious, and I loved his attitude and approach to life. Chris inspires me to be a better, more thoughtful person. He also is an amazing cook!"

Really, truly, I feel so lucky to have been asked to document your wedding, Nicole and Chris. Thank you for being so easygoing and infectiously happy. You two make the best couple!

Nicole & Chris | Outdoor Warren Ohio Wedding Sneak Peek

Once in awhile, I don't get to meet my couples in person until their wedding day. That was the case with Nicole and Chris, but it really didn't matter because they were so friendly and welcoming and ready for anything. What a blessing it is to work with mature, kind couples who are 100% ready to get married. It was so heartwarming to see these two so wrapped up in each other. You'll see that soon enough in their pictures, but for now, a little sneak peek ... Warren Ohio Wedding_0001 Warren Ohio Wedding

Aimee & Brian | Outdoor Cleveland Wedding

Outdoor Cleveland Ohio Wedding Brian fully admits that he chased Aimee for the better part of a year before she agreed to a date. Her side of the story is a little different though.

"I knew I found my husband pretty quickly after I met him," she said, "which is why I wouldn't date him for eight months. I knew he'd be the last guy I dated."

Both Aimee and Brian are teachers and it's evident in the way they treat others. They're both so caring and really work to make sure that everyone else is happy. Their wedding day was so selfless, and I love that about them. I'm pretty sure this wedding contained the most laughing out of any wedding I've ever photographed. You'll see it in the pictures below :)

Aimee and Brian, thank you for inviting me into your lives and making me laugh all day. :) I know you two will have a happy, happy life together!

Aimee & Brian | Outdoor Cleveland Wedding Sneak Peek

The joke of the day was that Aimee ordered 75 and sunny for her wedding. She and Brian had planned an outdoor ceremony and they desperately wanted to keep it outside. Unfortunately, the day was dreary and rainy and humid ... until about 10 minutes before the ceremony when it all cleared up and the sun came out. It was hot, but not too hot for July. Just what Aimee ordered. :) Nathan and I felt so welcomed by this crowd. We were honored to be a part of the day. A couple sneak peeks until next week ...
