Mike & Lesia

By December 17, 2013January 10th, 2018Wedding

Mike and Lesia have always been one of my favorite couples. I knew we were going to have an awesome wedding based on the engagement session that we did before. They have the love. A lot of love.

It’s the best shooting these kind of people. Everything just goes so smoothly and we got a ton of amazing images. I would love to show you the results. πŸ™‚

Mike and Lesia both got ready at the Hyatt Arcade. It was amazing as per usual.

I just loved the Zyga family. πŸ™‚

We did a “father/brother” first look prior to the wedding – it was so sweet to see Lesia unveiled to two of the most important men in her life at one moment. Pretty cool!

Their wedding was at St. Andrews, it was a Ukrainian Catholic wedding, full of old world tradition.

It’s the little things that make a day so special.

You know your dad loves you when you see a look like that on his face as he gives you away ladies!

Ukrainian Catholic weddings are fun to photograph – they have really cool traditions with Crowns and such.

We were making great time so I thought we could make a bonus stop to case western for some beauteous nature. Casual and candid wedding photography makes for the best images.

And you have to mix it up a bit!

Another great idea for Bridesmaids gifts. They all looked really nice and yet really unique.

Then I fused the wedding party together to make a supergroup!

Mike did something I will never forget. Sometimes I say things like look of into your hopes and dreams just to get them to, for one look anywhere but the camera, for two to get a laugh out of them. Mike surprised me when he looked right at Lesia. Well played Mike. πŸ˜‰ It made for a great, real moment.
