Composing the Vision

What a fantastic wedding season it has been! I don't think my wife or I anticipated just how busy we would be. It has been so cool to celebrate with all the awesome couples we have photographed so far this year. As it is our first year of marriage, it’s like every wedding has been a continued celebration for life and love. We have been so busy traveling, shooting, editing, and building the business and I want to thank everyone who has been a part of this, from couples to friends for their encouraging support. We have featured a lot of weddings over the summer on this blog but I do not want to lose sight of the mission of The Artistic Vision. Those of you who know us personally will know why our slogan is Beauty, Life, Love, Hope, but for those who are curious I would like to spend a little time on the last one: Hope. Every day I witness these beautiful ceremonies and couples, whether shooting or editing, I always remember how blessed I am to be a part of this. We witness the...

Congratulations to Kai and Libby who tied the knot last Saturday! We enjoyed ourselves tremendously and loved shooting this beautiful couple. Such an honest and heartfelt ceremony. The butterflies were flying but their love was so strong and such a testimony. Thank you for the wonderful weekend and may the Lord bless your marriage and life together.

Up to Norwalk for an exciting wedding! Nate and Andrea were such a great couple and we loved their style, personality, and their bridal party made it absolutely a blast to shoot unique and fun pictures. We enjoyed watching this couple get married and they enjoyed each other as they exchanged vows. Congratulations to Nate and Andrea! May you continue to find joy and peace to bond your marriage.

Congratulations to Craig and Sallyann for getting married! We were excited to be a part of your day. They got married in this old country Catholic church that was very beautiful. The stained window light beautifully lit Sallyann as Craig saw her for the first time and made for a beautiful ceremony. The reception was very friends and family oriented and it was awesome to be a part of that. We wish you two well and for many happy years.

Congratulations to Michael and Melissa for getting married last Friday! A beautiful wedding held in Loveland, Ohio. The Catholic church was modernly ornate and the Old Montegomery Inn was a perfect place to host the reception. I loved watching Michael and Melissa together. Their love for each other was evident to all. And Melissa has such a joyful laugh mixed with Michael's pleasant and outgoing personality, taking these pictures was such a pleasure. Michael and Melissa, I hope that these pictures will serve as fond memories. I know we will not forget this incredible wedding.
