She was a high school senior and he a freshman in college, when they first met, while working at the Akron Beacon Journal. It took some time but after a couple years they started dating. Deanna ended up joining Nate at Kent State University, where they both graduated from. They since have traveled and lived in other parts of the country but now they are back in the Akron area both working for the Akron Beacon Journal again. Kind of funny how that happened. Nate is a sports writer and covers the Browns, and Deanna edits. She told me that she prefers to edit Nate’s work, cause he’s such a great writer and she enjoys reading his stories. How stinkin sweet is that?
We met last Saturday morning in downtown Akron for this super fun shoot. Deanna is just too cute and has the best smile . . . we laughed the entire time. Nate is serious, I think they compliment each other perfectly.
I’ve been wanting to try this type of shot for a while and this red wall was the perfect backdrop for this fun image. What do you think?
