Subjects: Kelsey & Sean
Location: Downtown Columbus
A little romance happening in the city! On a chilly afternoon a few weeks back, we met Kelsey and Sean in Downtown Columbus for their engagement photography session. Yes, we photograph engagements throughout the year and each one is special in its own way. Kelsey and Sean’s in unique to us because they planned a theme photo-shoot. A 1920’s theme – it couldn’t have been any sweeter!
Heading into a themed shoot requires a little extra prep work, but definitely pays off in the end. We discussed with Kelsey different location options and settled for Columbus. We were inspired by the Art Deco era, and Columbus seemed to offer quite a few different photographic possibilities. We made (or tried to make) our way to the following locations; the streets of downtown columbus, The Judicial Center, The Ohio Theater, The Scioto Mile and The Topiary Garden.
When we arrived at the Judicial Center, we were told that we couldn’t photograph with the building. At first we were a little bummed, but quickly forget! We found some amazingly unique old buildings just by walking the streets of downtown Columbus. The city is full of fun architecture to photograph with!
If we would have to pick a favorite location from the entire session, we’d probably pick the Topiary Garden! Kelsey & Sean seemed to have so much fun ‘photographing’ with our old Brownie Camera. I think the years of theater came in handy… Kelsey is such a natural in front of the camera. Multiple times throughout the session we told them to just stand there and do something cute, and they did!
We photographed Kelsey a few years ago when she graduated from Versailles High School. It was a pleasure to see her again, catch up and meet her man. Sean grew up in a military family and has traveled quite a bit. It was wonderful getting to know him as well as how the two meet. If you can’t tell already, we’re really looking forward to their big day!
