Blessed with yet another perfect spring day in Columbus and I happened to have a photo session scheduled. I met up with Monique and Brian at Creekside in Gahanna for their engagement photos. I have known the couple for a few years now, even before they started dating. At one point they both worked for George and this fantastic couple actually met through work. Monique and Brian decided on the Creekside backdrop for their engagement photographs and we had a lovely time. It was a very quiet weekday afternoon session at the park and around the Creekside area. I was a bit shocked that there weren’t more people out and about on an almost 80 degree day!
They couple will be married on Memorial Day weekend in an intimate ceremony and reception near their home in Columbus. They have been busy planning away the last few months to make their special day perfect. Not only has keeping the wedding small helped reduce the stress down of planning, they also get to celebrate one of the best days of their lives with their closest family and friends. Although I do not normally photograph weddings, I will be the photographer for their wedding day. I am honored that they chose me to capture all the details of their wedding.
Here are a few of my favorite images from their engagement session. Check back in June for images from their wedding. It is going to be a great time!










If you're wondering about what Monique's tattoo down her arm — she decided to get some new ink right after Brian proposed to her. In French, it says: "When there is true love, there are no regrets of the past."
