Ashley & Scott | Engaged | Atlanta Georgia Photographer

I made the trip to Atlanta for this awesome couple. I had a great time hanging out with them and photographing them together. I even met some really great friends while there and I am excited to see everyone again in September. I did totally drop my camera (my brand new one) right on the pavement when I was there but thanks to the awesome people who make canon camera so well it is ok and still in great shape! 🙂 My heart on the other hand when through my throat when I saw it in slow motion hit the pavement. But all it well now. 🙂

Mike + Alysha Haury | 7.21.2012 | Cincinnati Wedding Photography

Today I got the chance to photograph Alysha and Mike as they got married in West Chester, Ohio. I had the best time with the bridal party as both the girls and the guys were just so much fun to be around. I just had to post some images for them as I was so excited! I was just really excited about being able to be a part of their special day and know that they will have so many years of happiness together!! 🙂

 

Thanks Liz my awesome fearless assistant!! I love that you can see friends and family so excited to see her walk down the isle.

 

So many more images from this wedding to come… “like” www.facebook.com/cmariesphoto to be kept updated on when new images are up!! 🙂

Fauxto-booths – Dayton Event Photographer

What is a FAUXto-booth you ask?

Well a FAUXto-booth is an out-of-the-box photo booth. A live photographer will arrive at your event with a backdrop (if needed, sometimes its cool to use the scenery you have around your event) and gathers up a few details from your event to use as props. (i.e. a few napkins, a chair, maybe a flower, balloon, a favor, grass, program, bow, a fork, or any other random thing that might work for a goofy fun picture) Then the FAUXto-booth is open for guests!

FAUXto-booths are way more fun than a big square black box.

Special Event Photography Packages – Dayton Event Photographer

I have really enjoyed being able to capture events lately. And have decided that I just truly love being able to capture people in a moment. The moment a little one blows out the candles and mom watching with a smile from hear to hear, or photographing a graduate as she crosses that stage. I love being able to capture moments in time, that just naturally happen and by offering event coverage I have really been able to do that.

So far I have had the opportunity to photograph the following events: weddings (of course), high school graduation, graduation parties, college graduations, bridal shows, baby showers, birthday parties, surprise parties, and a bachelorette party. I can’t wait to be able to photo even more types of events in the future. So feel free to contact me for more information about your specific event.

Something that I hear over and over again after photographing an event or party is how everyone was able to just relax and enjoy the party without having to worry about if someone got a picture. “I was able to truly enjoy my little boy’s first birthday as just a mom, not having to worry about always grabbing the camera. I got to even be in some pictures for a change. I can’t imagine not hiring a photographer for every birthday now.” – Hill Household. 

Storybook Album is 8×8 in size and has 20 pages. Album is custom designed with the best pictures from the event that will showcase the birthday in its best light.
