Siri + Rohan | married at the Franklin Park Conservatory!
a Southern Indian wedding including an American Ceremony, Hindu Ceremony and reception at the Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus Ohio
Siri + Rohan had a perfect mid summer wedding celebration. An American ceremony in the morning followed by a Hindu ceremony, a break, then their elegant evening reception at the Palm House venue of the Franklin Park Conservatory.
I’m always so impressed by just how much grace couples who incorporate MANY events into their days are…they’re so energetic and shine throughout the entire day….and they’re almost always my favorite days!
quick outfit change, and onto the next!
and, finally! a night time reception. Love love love! enjoy!

STRONGWATER
Strongwater Columbus can start this list off strong. It’s basically a blank slate that a couple can do up as much, or as simple, as their vision allows. It’s easy to access - and the space allows for a variety of set ups on a wedding day. With both indoor and outdoor space, you’re set for any weather… and I’ve seen lots of it! THE rainiest wedding I think I’ve ever experienced…and I promise, while you might worry about rain on your wedding day, it always brings a level of emotion for your guests! AND, LET’S NOT EVEN GET STARTED ON THE SPOTS TO FIND FOR PORTRAITS HERE!!
You know you live in Ohio when….almost all of your favorite venues are because they are “safe for many kinds of weather.” And, while this is true for this venue, too, it’s hardly hard to see why there are a bajillion other reasons to love it!
This venue. Let’s just talk about how wonderful it is that Milo’s Catering went ahead and brought it back to life after what we’ve all been through since 2020. It’s simply stunning. And, a wonderful way to celebrate Columbus.
It’s wonderful in all the seasons…and Lord knows you can’t count on anything anymore when it comes to consistency in wedding weather!
**addendum**
I’m sorry, this list is incomplete without pointing out that….BY FAR AND AWAY, my absolute favorite place to shoot is on anyone’s private property. Anyone I’ve worked with, or even written back to an inquiry about a private property wedding knows this. There is something so so special about taking a space, meaningful to YOU, and transforming it to a place to welcome your most loved family + friends, and start your married life together.
Andrea and Andrew | a spring engagement session
it’s equal parts scary and exciting that this feels like yesterday (why once you pass 30 does time literally fly?). It was one of the first warm days of March, and we’re So Close to being back to spring already. A + A were married in a small ceremony last April + I’ll be with them (for my first time at COSI) this august!
Aimee + Steve | Married at the Renaissance Faire
I could not wait to shoot this wedding! The renaissance faire! It definitely didn’t disappoint. A day filled (for me!) with candids and keeping my photographer eye open to shooting without any direction at all. And, for Aimee + Steve, a day filled with all their favorite things they’ve ever wanted to share on their wedding day!
Sarah + Jonathan | engaged!
Every year it feels like there’s an it date for weddings. June 18, 2022 seems like the one that has been inquired about over and over and over again. Lucky for me, I have the best couple getting married at the most unique venue! Can’t wait to shoot their wedding at The Timbrook Guesthouse! And, while I might not know who I even am, embracing this newfound love of winter I’ve found, I absolutely cannot wait for this time of year - the longest and warmest days! is there anything better?! (staying in jammies with my kids, reading and doing all the school work is a close second!)
pretty little details
Jorgensen farms wedding Columbus ohio by Jessica love
sometimes, (ahem, January, February, March in the northern hemisphere) it’s just nice to look at a few unrelated, but equally gorgeous, styled details. Let your brain stop thinking and just enjoy it with your eyes. For me, it’s often my flowers I am scrolling through (one of those kinda posts coming soon so you can see the glory of THAT)..but here’s some wedding pretty for no other reason that maybe you need a mid week grey winter pick me up!
