Baby Guhl has arrived!

We just got word that Lauren has given birth to a 6 pound 2 ounce not-yet-named baby girl!!

Baby Guhl came 3 weeks early so she can't be too surprised to not be named yet, right!? Any suggestions for Lauren and her hubby for a name? Let us know!

Congratulations Lauren and Jon, we are so happy for you and your family!

Bring her by soon, pretty pretty please!!!

Rita and Steve's July Wedding

Rita and Steve were married on July 11th and they definitely had beautiful photos of their big day! We've loved working with both Steve and Rita - they are a delight! I know our designer is looking forward to coming up with a beautiful album for the couple.

They were married at Oak Openings Lodge and had their reception at Valleywood Golf Club. I love the image of them running through their guests after the ceremony. Those candid action shots are the best!

Glenmoor Country Club

IMG_7293

The Glenmoor Country Club is located in Canton, Ohio and is absolutely beautiful. It has such an interesting history that you can read about here. The building and grounds started out as Brunnerdale Seminary High School for boys which closed its doors in 1986. Following a renovation, the club opened in 1991 and the Jack Nicklaus golf course opened in 1992.

The reception hall is located in the former chapel. The cathedral ceilings, giant candle chandeliers, and rustic atmosphere make for a great reception hall! What a great use of a retired chapel and seminary school.

We had the pleasure of doing photoboothlive at the country club for Davene and Andrew's wedding reception. Photoboothlive created great memories for the guests and was a huge hit once again!

One of the best parts of travelling to other cities for wedding and event photography and photoboothlive is being able to see and learn about great establishments such as the Glenmoor Country Club that have great stories and history!

Bob & Stevie took the bride and groom to a few different locations for photos. Having some spots scoped out ahead of time is such a great idea. When you are planning your formals, keep in mind that some of the most meaningful photos can be in unexpected places!

They are so adorable!

Congratulations again Megan and Marty! We all loved being part of your day!
