Note for friends and family – the full gallery of images is available!
Have you ever had a day where everything seems to go your way? I had one not too long ago. Ethan and Jamie were recommended to me by a fellow photographer. That was a good start. Then the Ethan and Jamie hired me to photograph their Cleveland wedding. OK, getting better. Then they gave me complete creative freedom! I nearly had a creative orgasm on the spot.
You might remember that Ethan and Jamie are a creative couple. After all, they created an amazing wedding announcement. Not only that, they are both have a sense for photography and knew what they wanted. Lastly, they really liked my native style and gave me freedom in my work.
So what did I do? First, I incorporated Polaroids in the form of a 1970’s SX-70 instant camera (more on the Polaroids in a future post). Next, I bought new lenses for my digital system so I could create the look I had in mind. Finally, I worked hard to push my creative style in new directions.
I have said it before and I will say it again – I LOVE my clients! Here are some early results –
This next photograph is one of my all time favorites. I think it might make the cut for the wedding portfolio –
Great idea – serve a midnight snack at your wedding reception. Jenny’s Ice Cream is a great choice.
As always, big thanks to Michael Kalbo for great second photographer work.
That is all for now. As I mentioned, another post is coming that will have the Polaroids from the wedding. It is definitely worth checking back for those.

P.S. – Ethan’s brother, Jeremiah, kept me in stitches all day
