Spinning a Web | KE365 | D96

My husband Joe would not be very pleased by this post, his serious dislike for spiders would keep him from enjoying it. While I don't love spiders, I do appreciate them and especially the fantastic way they spin their webs. It's kind of like he was just suspended there in mid air doing a sort of dance.

Holly & Clay | KE365 | D95

Holly & Clay had an awesome wedding celebration at Playhouse at the Park in Cincinnati on a late summer day in August. It was a beautiful ceremony and reception. Their wedding was in the cozy theater area with their wedding program designed to look as a theater program for the big nights events.

 

The cake was fantastic and reminded us of something out of Alice in Wonderland which Holly laughed and said that's exactly what I wanted!

The entire experience of Holly & Clay's wedding was unique and thoughtful. They are lucky to have a wealth of friends and family they shared the day with and made it even more special for them. It was clear to see they are perfect for each other just by the way they interact and the simple loving looks or gestures they exchange.

We wish you two the best with many years of happiness together!

My journey is always up and down, back and forth probably how a lot of us have felt over the last few years. Sometimes it would be nice to have such a clear defined path for us, a nice, sturdy and smooth path to travel on. We all not it's just not that easy though.

Being a photographer & designer on my own isn't even a choice anymore, it's what I have to do to stay true to myself. In my previous full-time position at a promotion company I loved the work (when I actually got it) but was miserable with the situation. Stressed to the point of being ill. Being stuck in a job that is killing you from the inside out is not the way to go, trust me on that one. If I have learned anything the last year it is that I have to stay true to myself or happiness will never be within reach.



I actually thought this was something created by a child or maybe a playful adult.
Really it's just mother nature being a bit playful herself.


The wetlands series was done in my hometown of Beavercreek, Ohio. Much of the wetlands area has been destroyed through development but we were lucky that they preserved several sections of it. It is a beautiful area, I had never seen it quite this flooded before. My daughter was so disappointed that our journey through the wetlands ended a bit short as the only path to the back of the park was covered in swampy water. If you are from the area I highly suggest checking these parks out sometime.
