Their journey began while Shanean was working as the promotions manager at a local club. Stuff magazine was putting on an event and she picked Ryan to be one of the models, little did she know then that she was picking her future husband. After many years of crossing paths from Arizona to Cincinnati they finally went on a date and have been together ever since.

Shanean and I have been friends for years, when she called me about setting up an engagement session I was thrilled. They are a gorgeous couple and so much fun to hang out with. I am honored to not only take these special photos for them, but to also be joining them in Mexico next year to photograph their wedding! Yes! My first destination wedding!

For their session we walked around downtown Cincinnati for the more formal shots, then went to one of my special spots for the fun stuff!

Since Ryan works for Harley Davidson we had to include his bike in a few photos. I will be the first to admit that I am kinda a snob when it comes to custom bikes, my stepdad was a hardcore biker who built his own Harleys. I was blown away when Ryan pulled up on this bike. He did a such a great job, this bike is just hot!!!

My favorite!

Shanean and Ryan, I cant thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to document your love in Mexico! :)
