Salona + Ed | Cleveland Flats Cocktail Party Wedding

Salona + Ed came to me a few weeks before their courthouse wedding, at the time, the COVID restrictions were still in place so there were no extra people allowed in during the ceremony. I’m so glad these two decided to honor the day with portraits afterward and of their cocktail wedding party! Salona shared with me that this was the first event for them and most of their friends attending, so it felt really-extra special to be able to gather in such a lovely space, on such a lovely evening for what she called “the happiest day ever”.

What a way to ease into the craziness of 2021 with these two gorgeous humans!

Also, we haven’t been to Cleveland in so long, what a lively and beautiful spot on the water in the Flats…this day was literally perfect!

Jessica + James | Winter Wedding at Squire's Castle

Originally published 12/21/2017
Simple + perfect. That was James and Jessica's wedding. Surrounded by only their families and their closest friends, James and Jessica promised their hearts to each other while giant snow flakes floated through the air. They gathered around the fire at The Woods restaurant and toasted to love and danced into the night. We loved how romantic and effortless the whole day was, just them and their families and their love to keep them warm!

Abby + Kilder | Glidden House Wedding

We were honored and nervous. As soon as we met Abby and Kilder, on their wedding day no less, we knew they’d made the right decision. We spent the entire day belly-laughing together. Their love is soft yet loud, colorful and layered. They tease each other and never stopped smiling. In the big crowd of people, they always found the other in touch or in glance. The magic that day was palpable. It was such an honor as usual to document this love story but it was an added layer of pride that we were chosen by such wonderful people.

There is nothing better than a ceremony outside among the trees and the singing birds. After their sweet vows and some time loving on their people, we hit up the best of Cleveland for the sights and finished off the day at Windows on the River!
Christine + Dan have such a softness about them, a quiet and sweet love that spoke volumes without words. We loved spending the day with them, talking about our common interests and sharing laughs with their big group of fun friends! It was the best of days in Cleveland this summer!

Jackie + Nick | Downtown Cleveland Wedding

This was one of our favorite days of the year for photo making. This day was full of all the magical things we love to shoot. Jackie and Nick picked this rad location in Gordon Square, we wandered around with ample time to shoot a ton of portraits and they were so chill and relaxed. We grabbed a drink at Happy Dog with their crew before heading back out into the tucked away little green space we found behind some old buildings.

Downtown Cleveland weddings are exciting. The buzz of the city, as vibrant and alive as it has become gives the day a wild energy. Kristin and Frank opted to take on Cleveland on foot for their time with The Heartlanders Co photographers, Lauren and Megan. They made the most of a beautiful afternoon exploring the city and enjoying each others company only to end the evening with an intimate reception at a cozy rustic Italian restaurant in Playhouse Square. Emotional speeches, touching dances and enough cake to share, of course! It was the best of days. 

Congratulations Kris + Frankie
