The Photography, Wedding Ceremony and Reception was going to be nothing short of fun and crazy from the moment Andy and Laura walked in the room. Don't get me wrong, it was classy and elegant as well. But what a night! I had to leave a few of my favorite photos off the facebook page in favor of good taste! My hat's off to The Grand by McHales in Covington KY and Jeremy with DJ Butlers for really making it a reception to remember. St Xavier was beautiful as always. It's always good to see the same faces when I'm in there. We worked with Land Force 1 both Friday and Saturday this weekend. Both families were very pleased! I was fortunate enough to meet a new vendor for me at least tonight as well. His name is David Klingerman with Five Stone Productions Films. I'll link his page when I have the info! I love it when Videographers are easy to work with. I also worked with Say Cheese Photo Booths both Friday and Saturday! I think everyone knows how much I love them!!
Now, it's off to bed. I still have more blogging to do tomorrow!!

As Wedding Photographers in Cincinnati we get to see lots of different types of weddings. Everything from the ridiculous, to the hilarious, classy, fun, romantic, sweet and just about everything you can imagine. This week, it was a group of the most genuine sweet people you could assemble into one room. I don't remember a more relaxed wedding day in some time! I thank you guys for having us be a part of it and I thank those who helped us make all this happen. In particular, I'd like to thank the ladies in the wedding party for some of your ideas! I loved them!

Cincinnati Senior Photographer Daniel Michael with Don, Aaron and Amanda photographed Paul and Becky Saturday august 13. We started at their house doing some details and getting ready photos and followed that up with a trip to Eden Park where they saw each other for the first time. From there we headed to Findlay Market and then to Holy Trinity Church in Norwood for a beautiful Wedding Ceremony. The Wedding Reception was at the stunning Verdin Bell Event Centrewhere Brooke and her staff were just amazing! Danny from CSCdid the lighting and was also the MC/DJ. It was a good night all around!!
Everything was just fun, beautiful and pretty much perfect all day long. Katie Elfers made gorgeous vibrant bouquets, LOVED THEM! Watching Ashley from I do MakeUp was like watching an artist work canvas. Every time I looked over at Becky she was getting more and more beautiful! The beautiful wedding cake was provided by Affordable Wedding Creations.
Probably the hardest thing we did, was at the end of the night when Becky wanted to spell "thanks" in sparklers! She had seen a photo with "love" which was much easier because every letter flowed and because it was only 4 letters. But with this we had to use lower case letters to make it work. The ladies helping with this task were not completely sober at midnight but were making a valiant effort anyways. And it worked!! What a fun day for everyone! I'm not sure if Cristin Kiefer has any wedding planning experience, but if I hadn't known she was a guest, I'd have said she was a pretty damn good planner. Cristin, you were right on top of everything and made things so much easier for me. Thank you!

The Senior Photographers at this wedding were Daniel Michael and Doug Oaks. The Associate Photographers were Jessica Fischer. All Portraits are courtesy of Images by Daniel Michael.
The Ceremony Destination and Reception Location were both at the Verdin Bell Event Centre. Not that I'm ever surprised by this, but Amy and the staff were amazing. The food was ridiculous and the service was spot on. Their Wedding DJ was Brandon from Hey Mr DJ. Few MC's can personalize a reception like the guys at Hey Mr DJ. It's always entertaining, well thought out, well planned and professional.. The Wedding Cake was Cheesecake from Jerry's Cheesecakes!. The beautiful flowers were provided by the Florist Petals and Glass. Her Hair was done by Liz Carter from Bridal Hair by Liz and Make Up was done by the talented Nancy from Brideface. I loved what Danny from CSC did with the Lighting. The Bell event center is so beautiful it doesn't need much lighting. However, some effect lights on the dance floor, some decor lights and most importantly, spot lights outside on the stained glass windows featured one of the more unique aspects of the Bell Event Center even at night when the sun no longer lights them up. I finally had the opportunity to work with Wedding and Event Planner, Julie and the wonderfully talented ladies from Cincy Event Planning. They were on time, organized, and always behind the scenes. If you didn't know there was a wedding planner, you would have assumed Kristyn was capable of miracles!

The Ceremony Destination was Bellarmine Chapel at St Xavier while the Reception Location was the beautiful Continental Room at the Hilton Netherlands downtown. Their Wedding DJ was Brian Benton from DJ Butlers Music by Request. The tasty Wedding Cake was prepared by a Spoon fulla Sugar while Wedding Transportation was provided by Motor Toys. The beautiful flowers were provided by Susan Foy of The Wedding Designer. Hair was done by Pump Salon, Jessica Flowers and make up was done by Erin Clark while the Lighting was provided by Goodwin. And it was all put together by the amazing Wedding Planners from the I do Boutique.
Yesterday was in interesting day from the start. First of all, the city had gone mad this weekend and there was no place to park! Everything was full because of the Marathon and Reds game. So then we got a call from the groom about his buddy Dave who was on his way to the emergency room at Good Sam because he split open his head! Don't worry, he's fine. They saw him pull up in Motor Toys Hummer Limo in a tux and had him in and out and ready for photos in no time. Matt and Beth were everything I could as for in a couple. They were good looking, fun, able to go with the flow and appreciative of everything that went amazingly.... which was everything else! The ladies from the I do boutique pulled everything together, the weather was amazing, the staff at the Hilton was fantastic, the cake was to die for, lighting was stunning and everyone there was beautiful and a blast to be around. Matt and Beth, you're wedding was amazing. Congratulations and thank you for letting us be a part of it.
