There’s a softness to the way Sam and Heather love each other—quiet, steady, and full of thoughtfulness. The kind of love that’s not about grand gestures but about the small, gentle moments that speak volumes.

You know you’re marrying your best friend when you seal it with a secret handshake at the altar. That moment, tucked into the ceremony between the emotion and the vows, might just have been the best testament to what a soul mate really is. Someone who knows you inside and out.

Michael’s graduation marks the end of an incredible chapter at The Ohio State University, and I feel so honored to have gotten to capture it. After graduation, Michael isn’t slowing down. He’s heading Egypt to study Arabic abroad. When he […]

There’s something so beautiful about the way John looks at Amanda—like he already knows how lucky he is. And Amanda, with that radiant smile and warm laugh, lights up every space she steps into.
