Casie + Darrell // Top Of The Market Wedding // Dayton, OH

When it comes to personal style, I wouldn’t say that I have expensive taste, but I do have a very specific taste. I’m picky about what I wear and how it fits. I’ll be the first to admit that my...

Casie + Darrell // Lakeside Sunset Engagement // Dayton Ohio

The first engagement session of spring is always epic. We get all excited about the sun and the warmer weather, and it really inspires us to push ourselves creatively. Casie + Darrell were...

Sia + John // Airport Engagement // Springfield, Ohio

We met Sia several weeks before we were able to meet John. He works in New York, and Sia studies law here in Ohio. That’s right, a classic long distance relationship. When we asked them “how would...

Sarah + Justin // “Who you are”

Sometimes we have to explain ourselves. We don’t always do everything just like the other guys. We encourage our couples to make it a priority to meet us in person before anyone signs any papers....

Kelsey + Andrew // Downtown Cincinnati Engagement

Admittedly, we don’t know Kelsey and Drew very well yet. But from the short time that we spent with them hanging out, learning about their wedding, and shooting in downtown Cincinnati, I’m pretty...

Priya + Anuj // Lake Lindsay Indian Wedding // Cincinnati, Ohio

This was our first Indian wedding. I really hope it’s not our last. Priya and Anuj are two of the kindest, most welcoming people I’ve ever met. When we shot their engagement session in Chicago,...

Lauren + Michael // Wedding At The Westin // Columbus Ohio

Nicole + Andy // Winter Wedding at the Madison // Cincinnati

These guys are so rad. It’s pretty obvious. Their apartment overlooking the city is incredible, and their love for each other and their families is contagious. We had so much fun, and count these...

Twenty Twelve

I’d say it’s pretty obvious that 2012 was amazing. Big thanks our friends our friends Jenny + Will, Jen + Jonah, Rebekah + Ben, Jeff Marsh, Phil Chester, Lauren Grove, David McClain, Tyler Hoff,...

Merry Christmas from the Brauns!

The Hunt

Our family has an annual tradition of heading up to Fulton Farms and hunting down the perfect Christmas tree. Obviously Holden takes his job very seriously.

Chelsea + Chris // Cincinnati, Ohio

When it starts to get cooler outside, and the sun sets a little earlier, magic can happen.

Ali + Brock // Hood Canal Wedding // Seattle, Washington

They say that it’s always raining Seattle. If you ask us, it may be raining in Seattle, just when we’re not there. We’ve been there twice now, and the entire time we’ve spent there it’s been sunny...

Ali + Brock // Engagement // Seattle, Washington

Holden and I spent the majority of last year at home together while Mindy was still working full time. If you’ve ever met anyone who has kids, they’ve probably complained once or twice about their...

Shannon + Brad // Cincinnati Wedding

Where do I even start with these two? I don’t know if we’ve ever had a couple that was more excited about having us as their photographers. We were never “just another vendor,” we truly were guests...

FEATURED // Jeff + Lynzie

We are so thrilled that Jeff + Lynzie’s wedding has been featured on Every Last Detail today! Stay tuned for our own post of their wedding coming soon! Check out the post here.

Cheryl + Nate // Engaged // Dayton, Ohio

These two are clearly perfect for each other. You can tell just just how much Nate cherishes Cheryl, and their love is infectious. On top of that, parking garages are probably one of our favorite...

Julie + Matt // Black + White

It’s been a little while since we’ve shown what we can do in monochrome.

Danielle + Kevin // The Portraits // Dayton Ohio

We photographed Danielle’s sister’s wedding last year. Both weddings were pretty epic. Major props to these two for being troopers. It was 103° on their wedding day, and miraculously we all survived.

We’ve Been Busy…

This summer has been insane, and we couldn’t have asked for a better set of couples. We’ll be blogging a LOT this fall, but for now, here’s a little taste of what we’ve been up to lately…

Coming Soon // Lynzie + Jeff

This weekend was perfect.

Katie + Jared // Cincinnati Music Hall Wedding

Katie + Jared blew us away. One of the raddest weddings ever. How do you top a dog in a bow tie and gentlemen playing cards in tuxedos? You don’t.

Coming Soon

One frame from the #wurthmanwedding.

Family Baseball Night + the 40mm f/2.8 Pancake Lens

Tonight we had a blast heading out to watch our local baseball team with our good friends Jen + Jonah and Jenny + Will, and our gang of loinfruits. It also gave us an opportunity to try out our...

Lynzie + Jeff // Charles Mill Lake Engagement

You know those days where you have the right people, the right location, and the right light, and when you put them together, magic happens? This was that day. This is being blogged way out of...

Lauren + Mike // Strand Theatre Engagement

Being alone in a movie theatre is pretty romantic. Also, these two are really really ridiculously good looking.

Amy + Chuck // Walden Ponds Wedding

Amy + Chuck got hitched a the historic home at the Walden Ponds Golf Club. Normally the words “golf club” don’t inspire much creativity, but we were so surprised by how beautiful and how much...

Kelly + Ben // Downtown Cincinnati

There are few things as rad as shooting and engagement on a downtown rooftop. Pin It

Julie + Matt // Cincinnati Engagement Photography

These two are super rad because they live in Colorado. Totally jealous.
