Eeee! I am so excited to share these photos with you! Ellie and Patrick, who live in the D.C. area,  stopped by Columbus on their way through town after Christmas. They suggested we take some pictures in the Nationwide building atrium, which turned out to be an awesome idea. It looks like a jungle in there!

A waterfall? Inside? Yes please!

Patrick got Ellie’s vintage ring at an antique store.

Patrick made Ellie’s face light up every …

single …

time. They melted my heart!

I forgot to mention that the reason they suggested Nationwide was that Ellie’s brother-in-law works there. Her sister’s family tagged along for the session, and of course I couldn’t resist a couple family portraits. Look at that blond hair!

And, as always, I’ll end with my favorite. An outside kiss!

E&P — I’m so glad it worked out for us to meet up! Have an awesome time at your camp wedding in Maryland!

Hilary and Jon wanted some photos on the Ohio State University campus, since that was where they met. Except for visiting the Horseshoe for football games, I’d never been on campus until a few weeks before, so I was happy to oblige. I love visiting new places!

These two are so cute! Of course, it was cold outside, so they were appropriately bundled up.

Hilary requested some shots in the new OSU library. Have you seen this place?! In-freaking-credible!

I love smooching in the stacks! Did you know that Lin and I had our engagement photos taken in a library?

The love between these two just kills me. *sigh*

They’re having a destination wedding in some tropical locale. I wish I could remember where … and I wish I could go with!

Then they took me to this wonderful place called “the number garden.” Oh, so magical!

The one above and the one below were taken inside the number 0. Look at that gorgeous teal tile!

A golden six!

“Get closer, guys … closer … closer! … Almost kiss, but not quite!” (Nuzzle nuzzle)

This last one’s for all you OSU fans out there! O-H!

(Buckeye fans say “I-O!”)

Hilary and Jon, you two were so patient with me — did you realize we spent almost two hours together?! (most of it in the freezing cold?) I loved every minute of your shoot!  Enjoy your pictures and best wishes for your destination wedding! <3

Couldn’t you already tell from my last post how much I like Carlee and Peter? This lawyer/doctor couple in training (they’re still in school) is dynamite in front of the camera.

See what I mean? They’re total naturals. Or that could just be the leaves …

Nope! It’s definitely C&P!

And Carlee has the most fantastic blue eyes. See?

And they’re totally in love. I’m so sad I can’t shoot their wedding (it’s on the West Coast)! Fortunately one of Carlee’s friends is an excellent photographer just getting started (kind of like me, Carlee said).

Gotta have a ring shot! I just love thinking up new ways to shoot these! This one is at the base of an ancient bonsai tree.

I couldn’t get enough of the light in the desert room at the conservatory. It was gorgeous!

And, of course, I’ll leave you with my favorite from the day. Hott Stuff!

Carlee & Peter, I had so much fun wandering the conservatory with you! Thanks for taking time out of your holiday schedule to drop by and visit with me!

P.S. The holidays were very busy for me, so I have a lot of new shoots to share with you! Watch the blog for more eye candy in the coming days/weeks!
