Hi All! Just wanted to let you know I am doing FREE sessions for Military families through Christmas. If you know someone out there that has a spouse that is deployed and wants photos of theirself with their kids or just pics of the kids I want to shoot them! Not only will I be doing the session free but I'll also be making a show of the images (if they want me to ) to share with them overseas. Holidays are an even tougher time four our service Men and Women and I would love to give them amazing art of their family to make their holiday a little brighter. Spread the word and tell them to call me asap, I'll take good care of them, but then again you already knew that right!

Thanks Friends!

Caitlin and Todd in Yellow Springs



What a fun place for a quick E-Session! I met Caitlin and Todd out near their home in Yellow Springs. Kind of a crummy day but we made the best of it and they didn't mind a bit. Great buildings too, Love the old worn brick in the alley! Nice to finally meet you Todd, and great to see you again Caitlin! See you guys in Cleveland for the wedding!! Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!! Booyah! -Nick

Brittany and David all around Cincinnati!






Well I thought it was just going to be a nasty day out with the rain we had a few hours prior to shooting with Brittany and David and I was really looking forward to shooting with them. Lucky for us the heavens opened up and gave us some gorgeous lighting and a very colorful sky. It turned out to be one of the best E-Sessions I've had in a long time! Thanks Brittany and David you guys were so much fun! Thanks for braving the cold and rain, it was definitely worth it! -Nick

The Storer family's annual Christmas shoot

So this is the 3rd year in a row I think that we've shot Chistmas pictures for Amanda and Brandon and thier daughter Savanah. What a great annual tradition! Savanah is growing up quick and she's become quite the little chatter box since I first met her when she was about 3 yrs old. She was pretty shy and didn't want anything to do with me and my camera, oh how kids change!

Colleen and Tyler's Pre-E-Session

So with all this rain I've had to reschedule every single E-Session I've booked. I had to push back Colleen and Tyler's so much that we got to Thanksgiving and still had nothing! So Thanksgiving morning I met them over at Great Wolf lodge for a few quick pics to se could make some save the dates. We even got a few family pics! -Nick

Heather and Nick in Mainstrasse!




What an awesome couple! You can tell Heather and Nick are one of those couples whose freinds with everyone and always the life of the party! We laughed through the entire E-Session and ended right at sunset with some killer shots of the Cincy skyline. Thank you SO much Heather and Nick you guys rock! -Nick

Mary and Matt's wedding in Dayton







Stephanie and Steven's E-Session in Terra Haute







So not the longest I've driven for an E-Session but close! Stephanie is my first High school Senior whose wedding I get to photograph. She graduated from Fairmont, I went there to, and that's where she and Steven met. Good job Fairmont! Thanks for an awesome time shooting guys! We really got some awesome stuff even if the creepy old guy from a scooby-doo episode ran us out of the neat building! See you next November for the wedding! -Nick
