mike and jade: a passionately intimate in-home session in columbus, ohio
it's no secret that i love in-home sessions. they can be simple, passionate, gentle, or a combination of everything. they allow a pure and vulnerable side of love to be shown, one that doesn't get showcased in the same way on a mountain or in a forest. don't get me wrong, i absolutely love sessions out in the wild, beautiful nature...but there's something so grounding and intimate about being in your own space, in rooms that you spend hours a day in, making plans and dreams and love.
