Inspiring Weddings

I found out that a wedding I photographed last year was featured in the latest issue of the Cincinnati Inspire magazine. This is the first time my work has been published so naturally I’m pretty excited!

After a seven year wait, high school sweethearts Maria Maclellan and Michael Hutt tied the knot “At Last”

The couple severed a three-tiered cake from DessertWorks, with two layers of vanilla buttermilk cake with raspberry filling and a third, middle layer, of chocolate fudge cake with chocolate filling. Are you hungry yet…lol??!! DessertWorks is one of my favorite vendors;) http://www.dessertworks.cc/

They treated their guest to a special treat-Graeter’s ice cream.

“Our favorite part of the day was the limo ride after the wedding,” says Maria. “The driver played a CD of our special reception songs and we just reflected on the night and were just happy to be married to one another.”

Steve + Nanci

Our good buddy Steve married his long time freind Nanci this past weekend. My family & I headed to Arkansas for the wedding. It was a lot of fun and was full of friends & family. Click on the link to view slideshow www.picturesbytracy.com/steven

Sherri and Adam CONGRATULATIONS.... I'll have your wedding images & slideshow posted soon.

This Saturday I'm heading to Arkansas to photograph my friend Steve's wedding. Steve is really special too me, you see without his encouragement thru the years I don’t know if I would even be a photographer. He told me; Tracy you have a gift, great eye, you just know how to capture a persons soul. Steve really believed in me and encouraged me to move forward so to do this for him is really cool. Anyways it's late...I'm rambling ;)

Now let me introduce you all to Melanie! I think she looks like someone famous but I can't put my finger on it? Maybe you can help....who does she look like?!

Melanie was so funny...she was afraid to stick her toes in the pond afraid that the goldfish would eat her. A few days before little I an "the 4 year old twin" actually fell in trying to catch a fish...he was crying saying...my mommy promised me fish sticks for dinner so I was trying to catch one....I said it's ok buddy I’m sure she has some in the freezer...than he said no Tracy!!! I want to capture my own. O'my gosh Shell and I were about to bust a gut....lol!!!!

What a sweet email....

Tracy,

I am sorry that it has taken me so long to get back with you. My, oh my! Everytime I get on the computer to email you, I find myself watching the slide show again! The pictures are so amazing. You caught the kids' personalities with each photo. You have captured the joy and innocence of childhood. I can hear the kids laughing and even wonder what they were plotting in some of the pictures!Thank you for sharing your time and amazing talent with us. It is an afternoon that we won't soon forget. We are going to take our time choosing photographs as they are all wonderful.

Thank you again!

Misha, Loren, Megan, Ian and Moira Ackenhausen

I am having so much fun with engagement sessions these days! I had the pleasure to work with Sarah & Ken, a couple very much in love. I photographed Sarah's best friend’s wedding last year....she was a beautiful bridesmaid & now it's her turn to be the bride! I remember taking a picture of them that night and thinking wow they are a cute couple I hope I get to do their wedding someday.

Congratulations Mandy & Nick!
