Jaaci and Matt | Wedding!

The Jacobus Duo — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 13:49:58 +0000

I woke up different that morning. I was refreshed. Energized. Excited. FEARLESS! It was the morning after I had just written my epic post about getting over some of my fears. I was ready to take on anything. Jared and I prepared our minds and reached deep down into our creative thinking. I surrounded myself with some of my favorite artists, turned on my energizing techno and began sipping away at the largest coffee mug ever. We gathered our gear up the night before so everything was ready to toss into our car at the last second. Jaaci and Matt’s wedding took place in Defiance, Ohio which was about 2 hours and 45 minutes away from our little home. I was excited to to be able to spend a nice long car ride with Jared with nothing to bother us-except maybe the officer who pulled us over for speeding, but that’s neither here nor there. I thought about how I want to be different. In my business and my personal life. I came up with some pretty awesome stuff and I’m super excited to be applying it starting this week! But, that’s a whole other blog post. I met Jaaci through her sister Tori! I shot their family pictures last fall and what an adorable family!

We arrived at St. Pauls United Methodist Church, saw we had some extra time and decided to grab a quick bite to eat at Subway! I couldn’t have asked for a better day to be shooting. The sun was out with warm soothing heat that brushed across your face and Vitamin D was hittin’ ya where ya needed it! I loved everything about this day and Ive been very excited to get these pictures up for a sneak peek!

All images were processed using Sassy Pants!

I took this picture on our way home from Jaaci and Matt’s wedding and wrote this blog about it.

When I first met Ashleigh on March 20th 2010 I knew right away we’d be great friends. She was like coming in contact with a great bottle of champagne. Bubbly, Sparkly and Elegant. Ashleigh was doing the makeup of one of my brides, Tara. We chatted it up about some makeup tips, sports and her background. Ashleigh is an avid sports lover and a pretty darn good sports reported. She has a pretty sweet blog, The Foxy Frenzy, where she does lots of weekly updates! If you love sports, you reaalllly need to check her out!!

Ash and I contacted each other a month later when Ashleigh really wanted to get some updated head shots! I was beyond thrilled to work with her again and I knew right away her pre-camera experience would a breeze to work with! “I just trigger my inner-Beyonce” said Ashleigh. And let me tell ya, this girl knows how to WORK IT!

Anne and Jeff | Wedding

The Jacobus Duo — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 02:34:58 +0000

Anne and Jeff were so wonderful to get to know. Their both laid back personalities and fun friends made the day go by so fast. We enjoyed meeting their family and cant wait to work with them again in the future. Anne and Jeff’s wedding took place at the Ohio State house in Columbus Ohio. The ceremony was beautifully decorated and the reception, held just a few steps away, was decorated so very elegant. Later on in the reception Brutus the Buckeye made an appearance and dance with everyone for about an hour. What a cool surprise if you’re a Buckeye fan!

Jen and Andy | Engaged

Jen was so cute! She emailed me a couple months back inquiring for a date that we are already booked for. A few weeks later she wrote back to me saying they changed their date! YAY! We were available!! We quickly set up a meeting and I instantly clicked with Jen. What a fun, smart and cute gal! We first started out at Graeters Ice Cream in Westerville and then moved out to Jareds Grandpas land. Jen and Andy were super fun to work with and I cant WAIT for their wedding!

Work it mama!!!

Alright Andy, give me some sass!!!

Holly and Ryan | Engaged

The Jacobus Duo — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 23:47:22 +0000

We parked the car. Gathered up the equiptment and headed towards our meeting spot. I saw Holly by their car waving at me from a distance. I was super excited about their engagement shoot because getting to see their personalities at Rachel and Stephens wedding we were just going to feed off of each others dork energy! And so we did. We began the session laughing and joking and carrying on. We started off in Goodale park for some pretty classic shots. Then we made our way to the Short North area where we stopped and window shopped, grabbed a couple cupcakes, and then later a few beers. I loved working with Holly and Ryan and cant WAIT for their November 6th wedding this year!

Their first date was at Betty’s right there in the Short North:

What a blessed life we have. God has given us such a wonderful gift to be able to capture such special moments for people. I love my job and wouldn’t have asked for anything better. Even though weddings and engagements are the specialty of the Jacobus Duo, we often have the privilege to photograph families, children, maternity sessions and yes…even pets. Here are a few of last weeks sessions!

Up first is Eli:

Next up is Baby Drew!!
