picturesbytracy epic



I hope you enjoy these sneak peeks and we can’t wait to be a part of your wedding!

Beth & Brendan, engaged!

Beth & Brendan are such a great couple. They live in Chicago and was here in Dayton for a wedding so it worked out to be a perfect time to shoot their engagement photos. We had killer skies & temps...I LOVE Fall:)


Brendan made this 1st image his FB profile pic so I'm guessing he likes it....

Personal:

just need to talk....

I can't begin to tell you all how lucky I feel to have so many people trust me with their memories. Also I have some of the most amazing and thoughtful clients I could dream of having. As wonderful and rewarding as this all is there are times when I feel overwhelmed. Last night I tossed and turned all night...worrying about my never ending too do list. For the most part I don't stress too much about it and stay focused but lately it's getting to me. I understand my clients are all excited to see the end result of their session, wedding, album etc... There is so much more beyond a click of the shutter. I constantly strive for perfection. Each and every image is edited and tweaked until it's just what I want. Often I will work from morning until late in the night editing, trying my best to keep up. It's takes hours and hours for every session; and I love doing it.! However I'm a one man show (so to speak) and I work as fast and hard as humanly possible. I've made a decision to cut back on the number of clients I take. Next year I will only be shooting one wedding per month so dates are very limited. However I have so many amazing photog friend in the industry & will be more than happy to give referrals.

Back to my amazing clients. Today I received the sweetest little green & white polka dotted package. Katie and Charlie Happy Anniversary and you have no idea how much this sweet little package means to me and what perfect timing. Hope things are going well. I want to hear all about the show. Thank you...thank you for the sweet letter and yummy zzang bars. You guys are the best!

So thoughtful guys:) These Zzang bars are the yummiest...most wonderful... melt in your mouth candy bars you ever tasted in your life! (warning: highly dangerous.)

thanks for listening my blog friends...

Vicki & Roy {Engaged!}

A few weeks ago I met up with Vicki and Roy to shoot their engagement session. We started off at the Dayton Art Institute and ended at the Yankee Trace Golf Club. The light was perfect for portraits outside. Nice and soft from the overcast sky:) I have no doubt that their wedding will be absolutely beautiful and that there will be plenty of laughter, love & joy to go around.

Some of my faves...
