Danielle Randleman [Publicity. Hair&Makeup]

Danielle Randleman is two things: an incredible hair & makeup artist and a lovely friend. We had been planning to do this shoot for a while now, and we FINALLY got around to it. And it was a BLAST. Danielle is the other blonde in the pictures, and the brunette is my cousin and best friend, Kelsey. Danielle colored and styled both Kelsey and my hair, as well as the fun makeup on our perdy faces.

Sooooo, if you're looking for a hair and makeup artist for your wedding, look her up...!

Ryan + Martha [Chardon, OH]


It's been almost 3 years since I first met Martha in musty common room at the YWAM base in Closkelt, Northern Ireland. She brought her prospective "boyfriend" to my wedding in the Summer of last year... and he immediately fell right into place with our group of misfits. It wasn't long before they were engaged... and planning their wedding on my 21st birthday.
The list of things that made this one of the best weddings ever is neverending... but I'll try to give you just a little glimpse of the glory:

* i got to be an honorary bridesmaid / photographer.
* Chucks
* it WASN'T raining, despite the weather report
* dance party most definitely made top 3
* 21st birthay on the 21st with lots of my favorite people
* etcetera, etcetera, etcetera....

The Coleman Family


Family sessions are always a nice change of pace for me. And this family was a blast to shoot. Amy is my cousin-in-law, who drove all the way down from Sacramento with 3 energy-filled children just for these pictures. Ben is quite the character, as is his sister Natalie who is quite the storyteller. And Hazel, well.... let's just say beach mud must be a new teething-soother, because she couldn't get enough of it :)
