This is our Why...

There are many things that take us (Mike and Julie) back to this day.

Our thorough wedding coverage will let you relive all of YOUR amazing moments, too.

This was the most emotional wedding of the year.

Everyone, especially the bride and her parents, knew and appreciated the fact that we were capturing once-in-a-lifetime memories. Memories of not just a wedding, but of togetherness that they don't often have as the bride's parents live overseas.

Each photo we took was followed with several sincere thank yous and a nod.

The bride's parents did not speak any English. Their interpreter joined them at the wedding and helped with the father-of-the-bride toast. Language was no barrier for this celebration.

These two families were excited and genuinely ready to blend.

A covert personal detail that we captured was an extra piece of material from the mother-of-the-bride's dress had been sewn into the inside of father-of-the-groom's suit jacket.

The unforgettable Tea Ceremony was rich with tradition and unspoken meaning.

The bride's dad (pictured far left) is an avid laugher. He was ready for and created many "HAHA" moments. He reveled in this one.

Congrats again Coco and Evan. Your wedding/family is the epitome of why we do what we do.

Who We Are

Michael Rhodes

I absolutely love what I do: photographing weddings, engagements, senior pics, headshots, and tintypes.

My style of mixing natural and artificial light in outdoor portraits creates dynamic images that stand out from the ordinary.

When it comes posing, we start with a pose, add some fun, and bring out your personality. The results are beautiful, authentic images filled with real emotions.

Interesting facts: I'm the proud Dad to the most amazing daughter. When it comes to coffee, I run on Dunkin. I love the history of photography and enjoy conversations with my reenactor friends.

Julie DiFilippo

I enjoy discovering Northeast Ohio's hidden gems with my clients and photographing them in their favorite places.

I love capturing family bonds, cheeky kids, and multi-generations.

At weddings, I look for those little, pure, candid moments that clients and their loved ones will cherish for years to come.

I shoot for the moment and edit for the art.

Interesting facts: My Godson and nephew, Vince and James, are my biggest loves. We have the best times on our adventures and making crafts together. I have a degree in Music Therapy. I sing in my church choir. I have been banned in my family from making chocolate chip cookies. I am a lot older than I look and my mom would love it if I told you that this was due to good genes. :) I taught ballroom dancing for 18 years.
