Welcome 2011

Announcing The Artistic Vision's New Year resolution: tending to my poor little blog that I forgot about the latter half of 2010. Usually, blog consistency lasts about as long as everyone else's resolution to get in shape and lose weight. But I think this blog is favored for resolution success because we've got some incredible weddings coming up this year!

And while the world was ringing in the New Year, we had our own celebration in Marion to ring in the newlyweds - Aaron and Laura! What a privilege to be a part of this wedding.

There was this old barn turned B&B that they rented for the day. Unbelievable!







Aaron saw his future bride for the first time by her grand entrance.




And who would have thought that it would have been 50 degrees on New Year Eve! It was so warm we shot outside in the amazing Ohio countryside.











Such an awesome group of people which really added the dynamic to the day. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a wedding when we were shooting a model shot of the girls and the boys ran around to get a look at these ladies totally unscripted.


And the rest of the day was equally as fun. Such a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony followed by such an authentic reception.






Thank you Aaron and Laura for allowing us to be a part of your day. We wish you the very best in your new life together.

Joe and Heather

  What an incredible time celebrating with Joe and Heather.  And who would have thought that a rainy April morning day could have turned into such a beautiful afternoon.  Which is good because I promised Heather sun!  I can’t begin to say how much fun we had with the whole group at the reception.  So much fun!  Here are a few shots of the day.      These next pictures are my favorites, the dress was amazing and that bouquet was out of this world!     And I’m not kidding - right before Heather walked down the aisle, a beam of light from the majestic church broke its way through the window and followed Heather all the way down.  I just turned off my flash and let Heather and her spotlight work the magic.     Ha! Cracks me up. This reception was a party!   Thank you so much you two for letting us be a part of your day!  We hope you enjoy the pictures!

Happy Anniversary Month - Throwback 2009

Happy Anniversary to my incredible wife.  Here's day 1 of 12.   Throwback blog!!  So I tried to revive ye ole xanga blog but I think it's lost in the underworld of Internet blogs.   But wow! Here we are. Starting our 12th year of marriage. Considering that there is song dedicated to the 12 days of Christmas, I wanted to take some time and reflect on the years that have gone by.  So I'm devoting this throwback blog post to every year of marriage.  You can expect a post for the next 12 days (note: I'm going to try really really hard to post every day considering all the chaos THIS year is bringing).  While there was so much more that happened before this, let's start all the way back in two thousand ought nine, back when “Boom Boom Pow” by Black Eyed Peas topped the charts. Back when Avatar just spend a ridiculous amount of money on their blockbuster, and when Angry Birds was still a thing. 2009! The year we got married! I remember si...

My first experience with a Mexican wedding

This past weekend I got the priviledge to shoot a wedding, and it just happened to be a Mexican wedding! The wedding was very fast paced, as I just found out that I was the photographer 9 days before the wedding. But the couple, Gaby and Fernando, were very fun to work with and it was a fun wedding. Some would say that there aren't a lot of differences between Mexican and American weddings. Of course they have a lot of the same things: a church, a bride, a groom, a priest. I mean there isn't much to that. I have never been to a Catholic wedding, so I don't know the differences and similiarites there. But let me just say that I think there are a lot of differences, Mexican weddings are crazy (good crazy)! After the bride finished getting ready, we headed off to the church. They didn't have a driver, so I quickly switched from photographer to chaufer in a matter of seconds. So I drive to the church with 15 minutes until the wedding. I was worried about getting t...
