JP and Madeleine’s wedding day was one of those events you don’t forget—equal parts timeless elegance and pure, joyful energy. From the sacred beauty of their ceremony at Saint Ursula Academy’s Chapel to the opulence of their reception at The Hall of Mirrors at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza, every detail was dripping in classic romance.

And JP and Madeleine? An absolute blast to work with. Their chemistry was effortless, their joy infectious, and their trust in me allowed for the kind of creative freedom photographers dream of.

The Ceremony: A Meaningful Beginning

Tucked within the campus of Saint Ursula Academy, the chapel provided an intimate and sacred setting for JP and Madeleine’s ceremony. With soft light filtering through stained glass and the couple surrounded by loved ones, it was a space filled with reverence and genuine emotion. Their vows were heartfelt, their exit beaming—it was the kind of love you feel just being in the room.

Portraits: Classic Romance at Krohn Conservatory

After the ceremony, we made our way to the breathtaking Krohn Conservatory for portraits—and it was the perfect setting for JP and Madeleine. Surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant plant life, it felt like a romantic escape tucked right into the heart of Cincinnati. The way Madeleine’s satin gown caught the light, paired with JP’s sharp tux and their natural chemistry, made for some truly magical moments. Every corner of the conservatory gave us something stunning to work with—soft natural light, dreamy backdrops, and of course, a couple madly in love.

The Reception: Art Deco Glamour at The Hall of Mirrors

Let’s talk wow factor. The Hall of Mirrors is a showstopper on its own, but JP and Madeleine’s florals and tablescapes took it to another level. Tall gold vases overflowed with curly willow branches, dripping greenery, and vibrant fuchsia blooms that made the whole room feel like an enchanted garden inside a Gatsby-era ballroom.

Their reception was full of energy—heartfelt toasts, a packed dance floor, and the kind of laughter that comes from a deep connection not just between two people, but an entire community of family and friends.

A Day to Remember

JP and Madeleine’s wedding was the perfect combination of classic elegance and fun-loving celebration. Photographing their day was a joy from beginning to end, and I’m so excited to share just a peek into their beautiful story.
