Sunset viewed from the balcony of our hotel room in Cincinnati. What a great time to visit cincy. First warm day of the year.

Looking out toward King’s Island in Cincinnati on a cloudy day.
The older kids are riding slides and having fun today, while I’m sat in a chair watching the baby nap.
Love it when a bride has a bit of fun during photos. Not certain what caused her to pull a flower out of her bouquet and put it in her mouth, but I remember everyone who was around laughing. #wedding #photography
Yesterday I went to a ramen shop and ordered ramen for the first time. It was fantastic. Until now my only experience with ramen had been the instant ramen packs from Maruchan. This blew those experiences out of the water.
Salmon, brussel sprouts and garlic, cheddar biscuits. Made dinner with my wife. She made the biscuits. I made the rest.
After a wedding it’s always interesting to see which photos get shared by the client and other vendors. This is my wife’s photo of the bride from the most recent wedding we shot. It’s been shared by the bride, the makeup artist and florist. That’s cool, but a little unexpected. It’s hard to tell which photos will catch with people sometimes. #photography #weddings
Just published this wedding on my blog. Anna and tiller were a fantastic couple and getting them to pose in this gorgeous windows light was a dream for me as the photographer. This was a great wedding day. Tap the link to see more photos: https://jennifervanelk.com/indy-canal-wedding-anna-tyler/ #weddings #photography

Quick kiss during a winter engagement session. Love these moments during shoots. #weddings #photography
Just dropping another wedding on the blog. This one was shot by our associate shooter Hannah, but I was second shooting for her. Here are some of my favorite photos from the day. https://jennifervanelk.com/holy-spirit-parish-wedding-madelynn-justin/ #weddings #photography
Asparagus, salmon, and mashed potatoes. I burnt the asparagus a little, but it was still good.
Drinking some good beers recently. Lots of coffee flavored beers.
This sour beer has coffee and raspberry flavors to it. It was also pretty thick at the bottom. Tastes great. It was a Continental Breakfast Sour, Raspberry, Cranberry Yoghurt version from evil twin brewing. Really great stuff.
Fried egg, asparagus, peppers, and rice. Trying to empty out the fridge. This wasn’t too bad of a combo though.
Posted this wedding on the blog recently. This was one of the most fun weddings I shot last year. This photo was from the bride and groom’s first look on the balcony of the Alexander Hotel in downtown Indianapolis. I didn’t know the Alexander granted access to the balcony, so this was cool. https://jennifervanelk.com/newfields-garden-wedding-kathleen-rashad/ #weddings #photography
