Holmes Family

As a photojournalist I strive to create something unique and refreshing with each portrait session. Forced smiles & poses are not my style, I capture the real moments. I love to crop in tight to focus the eyes & expressions.

Monday I had the pleasure to photograph this beautiful family. Becki & Michael attended a recent wedding of mine & asked me to come to their home in Cincinnati to photograph their two adorable sons (toddler age 2 & 7 month old). It was a great day! We played in sandbox, had ice-cream, ran thru the sprinkler, had story time...it was a full day=) Gibson the 2 year old was so full of personality...he keep me on my toes the entire time. I'm looking forward to working them again this winter. Click here to view slideshow... www.PicturesbyTracy.com/holmes

Jacquie & Matt-June 17, 2006

After a year of emailing I finally got to meet you! I really enjoyed working with both of you. Your carefree and fun attitudes made for some wonderful photos. Enjoy your slideshow: www.picturesbytracy.com/jacmatt

The wedding was a lot of fun and was complete with many personalized details; like the cool candy bar at the reception!

Sweet shoot of the rings:

The gorgeous bride:

I'm loving these doorway shots, so romantic.

This was the most amazing location, Ault Park in Cincinnati!

Well I wont lie…I was ready to cry when I woke up Saturday morning to the sound of pouring down rain…I have to tell ya that I prayed hard that it would stop but we all know the risk you take when planning an outdoor event…However; Chris and Trisha deserved to have a perfect day and after the tents were pitched around the Pavilion the rain cleared just long enough for some beautiful pictures.Chris & Trisha are such a perfect fit for each other… just like puzzle pieces! I don’t claim to be an expert on relationship but in all reality and after seeing a couple hundred couples together…it’s just something you notice about people… The ceremony was so beautiful from beginning to end and with all of the laughter & tears it was very touching. I’m so honored to be apart of it,

Have a terrific honeymoon!

Kerri & Shawn June 3rd 2006

We started the day out at Windy Knoll in Springfield Ohio. Most brides getting full coverage ask us to start at the salon...not Kerri! She wanted me to shoot Shawn and his friends playing golf. Well... I'm no sports photographer and haven’t been on a golf course since I was chased out at age 7. "long story lol" Anyways it ended up being really great...it all makes perfect since to me now;) Riding in golf carts, spending time with friends...pretty cool.

You can see from this picture what a sweet couple they are!

Another perfect day, fun loving couple...gosh I've been so lucky this year.

This image is going in my portfolio for sure. Nicole and her 2 sisters were the flower girls...three of the prettiest little girls on the planet!
