Dave and Ashlee’s Cleveland Wedding/ Photography by Renee

Today I want to share some of the wedding photography of my assistant, Renee,  from our recent wedding in Cleveland of Dave and Ashlee. I know that I don’t say it enough, but I am proud of the progress that Renee has made over the last three plus years she has been with me. When Renee first started assisting me, I had to teach her everything (which is my preference) from how to set the camera to where to place the lenses in my bag. I tell everyone that she was my little ball of clay to be molded (bwahahahaha!) Her progress is evident in her work; in the fact that I can trust her to do any job that I ask of her and that she can (mostly) accept my constructive criticism (which is saying a lot). Again, I am very proud of her, I appreciate her more than I can say and love her as a friend. Here are a few images from Dave and Ashlee’s wedding in Cleveland, captured by Renee. Every image that you see (except for Ashlee getting dressed) was set up by Renee and, other than some basic color and exposure correction, there has been ZERO post production work on these images. If you are a professional photographer THAT is a HUGE deal.   Be sure to “Like” Spencer Photography Inc. on Facebook.

Dave and Ashlee’s Cleveland Wedding

On Saturday, I had the privilege of photographing Dave and Ashlee’s Cleveland wedding. The day started bright and early in Ashlee’s parent’s house in west Cleveland. The house was perfect for photos; great light; fantastic woodwork and antique furniture. I met Dave at Our Lady of Mount Carmel church where he finished up getting ready and we did some family photos. After the wedding ceremony, we meandered thru the west side of Cleveland to find unique locations for photos of Dave and Ashlee and their wedding party. That took us to some interesting locations and we ended up at the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. The night ended at Michaud’s in Strongsville where they had their wedding reception. Here are some images from the day. Be sure to leave Dave and Ashlee a comment, below, and remember to “Like” Spencer Photography Inc. on Facebook.

Eli and Karlee’s Cincinnati Wedding – cincinnati wedding photographers, cleveland wedding photographers

Being a Cleveland wedding photographer, it is nice to sometimes have the opportunity to participate in an out of town wedding. On Sunday, I had the opportunity to photograph Eli and Karlee’s wedding in Cincinnati. The wedding and reception took place at Karlee’s uncle’s farm. The rural setting was great. As I said, being a Cleveland wedding photographer, I am used to a more urban setting, so the wide open country space was a fantastic change of pace for me. The day was a bit chilly and windy, which posed a challenge, especially for the wedding party, but all went perfectly. Eli and Karlee were just perfect. Kind, accommodating and just a pleasure to work with. I want to thank them, their families and their wedding party for being so awesome. This is part one of a two part blog post. There are so many awesome images that I had to break them up into two separate blog posts!  Be sure to leave Eli and Karlee a comment below, and remember to “Like” Spencer Photography Inc. on Facebook.

Dave and Ashlee’s Cleveland engagement session

As a Cleveland wedding photographer, one of the things that I like to do with my wedding clients is have a photography session with them before their wedding day (I usually insist on one). If my clients wish to have more than one engagement session I will do it and it is included in our wedding photography service. The better prepared they are for their wedding day, the better they will DO on their wedding day. This was Dave and Ashlee’s second session before their May wedding in Cleveland and reception at Michaud’s in Strongsville. I have to say, they are definitely ready for their wedding day. Here are a few images from the session. Be sure to leave them a comment, below, and remember to “Like” Spencer Photography Inc. on Facebook.

Vince and Lisa’s Akron Engagement Session – cleveland wedding photographers

Yesterday I met Vince and Lisa in Akron’s Merriman Valley for their engagement session. They will be getting married this month with their wedding and reception at Todaro’s Party Center in the Valley. The day was absolutely gorgeous. Sunny and just the right temperature for an engagement session in Akron. We drove around just looking for the right light combined with the textures of nature. They both did fantastic and I am looking forward to their wedding and reception at Todaro’s. Here are a few images from the session.

Mark, Sandy and Cody redux – cleveland wedding photographers

Well we FINALLY were given the perfect weather conditions for Mark, Sandy and Cody’s Akron family portrait session. Mark and Sandy’s first engagement session was in the middle of winter when it was, literally, 19 degrees outside…and they MEANT for it to be in the cold!!! (see it -here- ). When we scheduled a photo session that would include Cody, it was cold and rainy -here- . We got what we could but decided that we needed to have a photo session when it was more comfortable. We met this time in downtown Akron and it was just beautiful outside. The sun was shining giving us ample opportunities for different lighting techniques. After this session, I have no doubt the Mark and Sandy and, especially Cody, are ready for their big day. They will be getting married in the Akron area with their wedding reception at Guy’s Party Center. Here are a few images from yesterday.

Kristy’s One on One Workshop – cleveland wedding photographers, cleveland senior portrait photographers

From time to time I will get fellow professional photographers requesting one on one training with them to help them improve particular areas of their own photography. As a Cleveland wedding photographer, it is great to do these training sessions so that I can share the knowledge that I have acquired as a professional wedding photographer and portrait photographer. It’s is especially exciting, because it forces me to push the boundaries of my own knowledge by making me communicate that knowledge so that another professional photographer can easily understand. On Sunday, I spent the day with Kristy Steeves of Kristy Steeves Photography. Kristy had two of her clients, Tyra and Morgan, to model for us and we spent the day focused on natural light, posing and exposure. Light and exposure are THE two most important ingredients for a successful portrait so I really wanted to get Kristy to concentrate on those two things in particular. Most of our approach was focused on senior portrait photography since Tyra and Morgan are seniors in high school. They were both fantastic and Kristy is as lucky to have them as clients as they are to have her as their senior portrait photographer.  It was a pleasure to share what I know with Kristy and I hope that she got as much out of the day as I did. Here are a few images that I captured during the day. Be sure to “Like” Spencer Photography Inc. on Facebook.

Vytas and Berta’s Cleveland Photography Session – cleveland wedding photographers

On Sunday, I met Vytas and Berta on the west bank of the Flats in downtown Cleveland for their photo session. They will be having their wedding and reception at The Club at Hillbrook. Since their wedding site is more rural than urban, they decided that this session would be as urban as possible. Not many other areas in downtown Cleveland meet that criteria better than the west bank of the Flats. It was a blustery day, and our biggest challenge was handling the wind. We worked with it and accomplished our goal. Vytas and Berta are great in front of the camera and their wedding at The Club at Hillbrook should be fantastic.
