It had been awhile (and some hairstyle changes) since my last photo shoot for blog pictures. So, I reached out to my super talented and super sweet friend Lane of Lane Baldwin Photography.

We spent a fun morning around downtown Cleveland taking pictures from North Coast Harbor…

…Playhouse Square.

Lane snapped photos I can use from Instagram to Facebook to blog posts and beyond. And she captured everything from the perfect wide shot of the city…

…to amazing head shots and close ups.

The photos in this series are some of my favorites. We were literally standing on an island in the middle of Euclid Avenue during morning rush hour with me in a ball gown. Super casual 😉

I’m so happy with the results of our photo shoot and wanted to share some here now. You’ll be seeing more of these across my pages in the days and weeks to come.

Thanks, Lane, for being amazing to work with, for sharing my vision and adding your own, and for making me feel super comfortable!

I hope y’all like these as much as I do!
