My HS classmate Stacie contacting me about a photo shoot for her sons and nephew I was really excited. I’ve shot a handful of my classmates over the years. I was extra excited to hear about her great ideas. Golf is a huge part of there lives so naturally our session was held at Wauseon Ironwood Gold Club. We had to rescheduled a few times due to the weather but it was worth it! It was picture perfect. Here are just a few of my faves…
Mr. Handsome
Mr. Adorable
Mr. Cutie Pie

Mr. "T" turns 2 | Maumee Bay Photographer
September 21, 2011
Wow! It’s hard to believe that “T” is now two years old! It seems like yesterday I was posting his newborn photos. When his mom contacted me to schedule his two year/family portraits, I had the perfect location in mind. I just love how I was able to capture Mr. “T” in action and sweet family moments all in one. Take a look at just a few of my faves

Newborn Baby “G” | Toledo Newborn Photographer
September 2, 2011
Amanda and I played email tag for a few days before we were able to secure a session for the newest addition to her family. Amanda is a dental hygiene pal and I actually took her sisters senior pictures a few years ago. I’m honored she thought of me for baby “G”‘s first photo session. When I arrived, baby “G” let us know who was in charge in that house and managed to fight the sleep off for a while. She finally drifted off and became the perfect model. Here is a sneak in to our session. Thank you Aaron and Amanda for welcoming me into your home and allowing me to capturing your precious gift!

Kip and Amanda | Maumee Bay Engagement Photography
September 1, 2011
When we scheduled our engagement session for downtown Toledo, we didn’t even think about there being a game at Fifth Third Field. A lot of my spots were turned into parking lots and space was limited. We managed and headed to Maumee Bay for what was a beautiful sunset! Here is a quick look into our session. Look for their wedding in June
Meet Brittanee, a 2012 Archobold senior. We had a great time during our session! We stared in the studio because it was raining and it didn’t take long for Brittanee to become every comfortable in front of the camera. She was amazing to photograph and the best part is her hair LOVED to fly in the fan 
Here are just a few from our session
The dress shot for her mom
See what I mean about the hair?! Awesome
LOVE!
Again, awesome hair
I was kinda bummed about the rain, but now I’m glad!

Chris and Jen said I do on one of the hottest days in 2011. Hooray for air conditioning! Despite the heat, it was a lovely day. Chris and Jen are so cute together, they were totally meant for each other. We had some extra time to go cruising and the sky was picture perfect. Here is a look into your day with Mr. and Mrs. Clark

Great pictures! what a cool idea!! the last one is my favorite!
Love the unique and fun photos! Gloria, I am really impressed with your work! It is nice to see you capture great pictures of real life along with cute poses!
What a handsome set of young men there are in these shots!!!! Future heart breakers for sure!!
Absolutely LOVE these photos! Very creative ideas and great photography! My favorite is the sunset one. Pictures used to be all about how people looked (hair, makeup, clothes), but when you get creative like this, it doesn’t matter who is in the picture, it has so much meaning and just makes you say “WOW”! Great job Gloria!!
These are all so good! I especially like the sunset picture of Jackson and Trygg! Wow!
What handsome boys. Great photos.
These are so cute!!! They turned out so good
Love these! Thanks so much!
Gloria, I LOVE these! I knew from seeing so much of your work on facebook that you were exactly the person I wanted to take these pictures. We wanted something different and unique and you have such an amazing eye. They turned out so much better than I even imagined. I don’t know how I am going to even chose! Thank you for all of your patience with Trygg especially. We are so very lucky to have such a talented photographer right here in our hometown.
L.O.V.E. These!!! These three are adorable and I must say that the last shot is stunning – I love the colors. Great work – they are going to cherish these for years!!!!
Awesome shots!!! what handsome little boys!!!
