Yes, that's right - February! And the day Nathan and Ashley selected - the last Saturday in February - ended-up being a picture-perfect day, with mild temperatures and nice light in the sky. The location was Bill Yeck Park here in Centerville, Ohio, just down the road from my home studio!

Photographing this event, and being present at the occasion was a welcomed relief from the winter of COVID. Even though it was outdoors, and with a small, intimate gathering of friends and family, we took the necessary precautions to stay safe while still thoroughly enjoying the coming together of such a beautiful couple. 

I rarely photograph weddings, however, but when I do they are small, outdoor events.

I am very grateful to Ashley and Nathan for selecting me to capture the images of such a joyous occasion!
