Coty and I absolutely loved shooting this wedding. The couple was gorgeous in front of the camera and their ceremony brought me to tears (Me as in Ashley). I loved their personal vows to eachother and the sweetness of the words they said. It made for their intimate ceremony at the Athletic Club all the more special on their big day. I remember CJ at Worthington Christian but I only remember her as the youngest Beatty girl. Erin (her sister) was a year older then me and we played basketball together in high school, in fact I think her sister played too. Anyways, I had known the Beatty family for quite some time and I was honored that they wanted us to shoot their youngest daughter’s wedding. When I finally got to meet CJ and Jonathan after booking it was at their engagement session and I remember asking Jonathan to kiss CJ by the tree at Innis Woods and it was so cute because they both giggled a little bit and he was excited to kiss her and he then went onto tell me it was the first time he got to kiss her as he had just gotten in to Ohio and rushed straight to the engagement session! I couldn’t get over how sweet he was to her, he just wanted to be near her every second. The wedding day was that, times 100! Their love and passion for eachother just radiated in their photos and every snap of the camera was an incredible moment between the two. Okay I feel like I’m talking too much and not showing enough photos! Here is CJ & Jonathan’s wedding photos!
