My first question to Wes was, "is this for you or your mom?" Easy answer, "Mom". So for me it was let's get some nice portraits of Wes plus a few with his brother, and let him go do something fun! Mom and Wes both seemed happy with this concept and we were off and running!

Senior Wedding Photographer Daniel Michael photographs Jack and Allison's wedding ceremony at Faith Community United Methodist in West Chester and wedding reception at the Marriott North in West Chester. Mark and John did a fantastic job tag teaming the ceremony. Allison got a little choked up when they talked about "for richer or poorer"...hmmmm... There may be a staff as good as Meghan and the crew at the Marriott somewhere in the city, but I'd be hard pressed to find any that are better. I'm just not sure how anyone can be better. Everything happened exactly how and when it was supposed to. Food was served exceptionally quickly, everyone was taken care of, every little detail was attended to. Meghan Zlatic is an amazing combination of sweet, genuine, organized, professional and hard working. Simply, she does things the way they should be done. And if Allison decides to comment on this blog, I'm certain she will back up that statement as will Tom from Rick Juler who was also quite amazing himself! I watched him multi task things that anyone else would need two people to do! The Chicago bulls style entrance with lighting, custom intros and custom musical clips went off perfectly. The lighting in the room was well done by Entertainment Unlimited Events and helped create the custom ambience that Allison was going for.
I was completely blown away by Karis and Amber from Mitchell's Salon and Day Spa in West Chester. Not only did Allison look stunningly beautiful, but they were done ahead of schedule!! I never see that!! Thank you! Jeanie from Motor Toys Limousine Service was like an extra planner! She was right there just like Alyssa was with our crew always offering an extra set of hands and making sure Allison and Jack were always taken care of. I didn't get a chance to have any of the cake this week. I normally don't eat the wedding cake but make exceptions when Spoon Fulla Sugar is making their Hummingbird cake!!
Allison attended to every detail of her wedding. It was quite impressive. It looked like everything was done by a professional. You should be very proud of yourself. You put together an amazing wedding. My hats off to you, Jack and each of your families. And I might have been mistaken, but did I catch a little bit of an Ohio State theme wedding? Seemed like I saw something that made me think of Ohio State but I can't quite seem to put my finger on it.

The Senior Photographers at this wedding were Daniel Michael. The Associate Photographers were Jessica Fischer and Don Schvart. All Portraits are courtesy of Images by Daniel Michael.
The Ceremony Destination was St. Max in West Chester Ohio while the Reception Location was at the Cincinnati Marriott North with the amazing Megan Zlatic who always seems to make sure every wedding is perfect... and it was! Their Wedding DJ was a good friend of Jeff's, Curtis Philpot. It was a pleasure meeting him and working with him for the first time. He was fantastic! The Wedding Cake was prepared by Alicia's Aunt and Uncle and was beautiful! Transportation was provided by Petermann Bus with my good friend Jackie driving the crew around! That was a pleasant suprise. The beautiful flowers were provided by the Cincinnati Florist Two Little Buds. Her Hair and Make Up was done by the amazingly talented ladies from Bajon Salon.
When I work with Jessica and Don from our crew and Megan from the Marriott, I almost expect things to be perfect. I can't think of one thing that wasn't. The weather was amazing, the people were fun, beautiful and actually stayed focused! I was so glad to see Amy and Brandon who were married in 2009. Brandon was lighting up the dance floor while Amy enjoyed the show! The whole family on both sides was a joy to work with and spend this Saturday night with. Alicia and Jeff, you should be thrilled. It just doesn't get any better than this! Have a great honeymoon and I'll see you soon!!

Cincinnati Wedding Photographer Daniel Michael recreates Paul's proposal to Becky at the park under a tree. It was a nice little picnic in the park with grapes and drinks and all the love that is clearly shown in their eyes. So much fun! Thanks for mixing it up for me guys!

The Senior Photographers at this wedding were Daniel Michael and Emily Naehring. All Portraits are courtesy of Images by Daniel Michael.
The Ceremony Destination and Reception Location were both at Elements Conference and Event Center while the portraits were taken at Sharon Woods. My hats off to Nidhi, Vikas, Varun, Mario and the entire staff at Elements. The day couldn't have been more smooth and Latonia and Curtis couldn't have been happier. Their Wedding DJ was the always entertaining, smooth talking, master MC Jason from Hey Mr DJ. The tasty Wedding Cake was prepared by an all time favorite, Patricias. The beautiful flowers were provided by Cincinnati Florist the Silk Canopy. Latonia has an allergy to flowers and you would never know the flowers were silk unless you touched them! Her Make Up was done by the amazingly talented Tamra Berry while her hair was done by Nadi Hair Spa.
I'm not sure I've ever seen a more emotional bride after her wedding than Latonia. Her and Curtis are meant to be together and after 9 years....IT'S ABOUT TIME!
