The shots in the Limo Bus say it all! Lots of sweet moments captured! Some of my favorite shots were Phil holding his mom’shand as you were walking down the aisle and the unexpected version of the Leap Frog/Havah Nagila! If you are going to do theHora (Havah Nagila) you may as well do it all the way! I’m sure you are having the best time on your honeymoon but I’m looking forward to seeing you both when you get home!

Meredith & PJ

Saturday, Jonathan and I had the honor of taking photos for Meredith Solomon… a friend from yoga. I have known Meredith for years and have done yoga shoots with her in the past. PJ and Meredith were so relaxed on their wedding day, it was so refreshing and fun watching it all unfold. I stayed late into the evening laughing and dancing with close friends. LOVED the music, felt like I had been transported back to the early 90′s! Enjoy the photos, they were taken with love. Congratulations to you both…MWAH!!!

Love,

Candy and Jonathan

I pulled up to this magical log cabin on Saturday… the Donahue home. I was greeted by Mr. Donahue, who I will be calling Kevin for the rest of this post per his request, who was rounding up the family’s cats. I immediately felt right at home and joined in. It was nice to have a few moments, getting to know my surroundings and taking in the light. The girls soon arrived and the house was filled with laughter and excitement. I began shooting the dress… the light was perfect, the dress was perfect, the shoes… perfect! LOVE those bows! Before I knew it we were off… the whole day just flew by. I had so much fun romping around Cleveland with this bridal of party of TWENTY… from the beach to the flats and even the theater district! We managed to fit it all in before heading to the Union Club. The reception began with a toast from the father of the bride, Kevin delivered one of the best speeches I have ever witnessed. The maid of honor and best followed leaving everyone first in stitches… then tears. I really felt the LOVE. I am so honored to capture these moments for the Donahue’s and the Gilley’s.

Congratulations again,

Candy and Leslie

What a special night for them and their families!

Kate and Todd have been through so much together and as we all heard proved herself in sickness and in health. Getting to know this couple was a real treat for me because their love was so amazing to see and capture. I always hope that all of my couples will have the perspective on life to cherish every moment and it was so evident to me how much this Bride and Groom actually do even before I heard the toast and heard about their history. Beechmont looked amazing with Arnie from Plantscaping doing the decor. My new Nikon D4 which I have been waiting for sooo long exceeded all my expectations! I was recommended to Kate’s mother from wonderful clients turned Dentists and good friends. After getting to know Kate & Todd I feel like I have just made new friends and look forward to many happy occasions with them and their families!

Courtney & Chuck

Jonathan Koslen — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 20:11:27 +0000

Throughout the past month Courtney and I tossed phone calls and e-mails back and forth in preparation for this past Saturday. Each time we spoke there was nothing but excitement in her voice; even when I asked if she was nervous, she responded by saying that all she could think about was Chuck standing at the altar waiting for her. We already knew this was going to be “one to remember,” but from the moment Jonathan and I saw the bride and bridesmaids dressed in impeccable style (headpieces, pearls, pins…you name it), we tightened our grip on our cameras and were ready to get to work!

At the ceremony, everyone present was reminded that we were celebrating a 9-year-long love between Courtney and Chuck. It seemed as though there was an “it’s-about-time!” aura to the celebration. After just a few location-shots, it was so easy for us to see it too–Chuck stood lovingly and patiently, wherever he need to be, as Courtney worked the camera like a pro, always looking back to Chuck. As Jonathan and I are going through our photos this week, we can so clearly see your individual personalities and strength as husband and wife shine through. Here’s to another 9+ years!!

Leslie & Jonathan

Melissa and Bruce

I love shooting in my town… Chagrin Falls is so quaint and cozy. When I started shooting at the Bailey’s house, I immediately felt right at home. The simple elegance of the day was reflected in all the details, the dress was light and sparkly, the tulips were delightful and the veil was long and flowing. Everyone was all smiles, especially the grandparents, which made the day unravel so effortlessly. After the ceremony, we had lots of time for photos. We shot in downtown and Chagrin Falls, The Trout Club, and then made our way to the reception at the Bertram Inn. There were cocktails, dinner and then DANCING! The band, Driven kept everyone on their feet. It was more like a concert than a wedding reception. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your day.

Love,

Candy and Lauren

Robert & Sara in NYC!

Jonathan Koslen — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 13:01:28 +0000

Wow it’s Wednesday and Candy and I are still recovering! We shot over 4000 images and the link below will show you are favorites! Terrace in the Park was an amazing venue to work in and I’m sure that I’m not alone in saying it was literally shaking (or rocking) from all the excitement! Being so high up it certainly made for a great backdrop of the city. For me this wedding was extra special because I knew both families very well. Sara’s brother and sister in law got married in Cleveland at The Ritz a few years back and Robert I know from doing lots of shooting at Mizrachi as well as a few family photos! Their wedding was also a special treat for my 6 and 8 year old kids who were allowed to “crash” the last 15 minutes and see what a New York Wedding was all about. Overall the images from The Plaza hotel and Times Square were my favorites! Thanks again for having us!!!

I had a great time with you during the engagement shoot and knew the wedding day would be a blast.

It was also a pleasure doing another Siegal Wedding! Landerhaven looked so wonderful! Pieter Bouterse

as always outdoes himselff on the decor! Ginny Sukenik and her team of coordinators made sure everything went off without a hitch. Eugene Ross and the Chozen Few (NOT Chosen) kept the crowd going strong. I was loving the snow whenever you gave me the opportunity! Thanks again for trusting me and “going with it”! Those were some of my favorites! Congratulations!

Candy and I are so happy for you guys! As I said earlier it didn’t hit me until I saw

the two of you together that I remembered you both from seven years ago! Everything was so perfect!

Yitty Dessler did an impeccable job planning and you did have the dream team of vendors! The Renaissance

was beautifully decorated by Pieter Bouterse and Yitty’s tablecloths of course! Moish did his usual terrific job

with the food (not an easy task for 550 guests). The band from NYC certainly kept everyone dancing all evening.

All eight of your photographers are still recovering as well as going through all of the files! Hope you like what you see so far!!!

Mazal Tov!

Jonathan & Team!

Kate and Kevin are a stunning couple. Everything about the day was elegant, from the dress to the flowers and let’s not forget the flower girl… what a doll! Candy could have taken photos of the kids all night long dancing the tango. The weather could not have been more perfect especially for January! We look forward to seeing you guys at Cleveland Yoga!

Kaye & Mark

Jonathan Koslen — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:52:31 +0000

What a wonderful way to wrap up the year! When Kaye and Mark had their 1st look before the ceremony Kaye’s expressiveness was so sweet and wonderful that I had to tell my wife to be more like her!

It was a very sweet moment between the two of them and when I wanted a laugh or two from them it was so easy! I was warned that Mark doesn’t like to smile for pictures but his day was so perfect how could he not.

The Ritz Carton’s newest event coordinator Emily did a fantastic job! Tina (Prestige Floral), Phyllis Lester (cake lady) and the band Steve Fazzini all helped to make their day terrific!
