When I met these two downtown Akron, I didn’t know what was in store for me. We started off in the Lock 3 area and wandered around from there. Cholly and Matt live in Columbus but will be getting married here in the Akron area, at Conrad Botzum to be exact. The day of our shoot, they had some other appointments in the morning and when they were heading toward downtown they noticed a “carnival”. They shared with me that it might be fun to check it out. From their description of where the carnival was, I was a bit worried. But of course I LOVE adventure, even if it is a bit scary and I am carrying around 10K of equipment on me. But since Matt is a very manly man, I felt quite safe and the second part of our session took place at the said “shady carnival.” We I had the best time! We played skee-ball, got to ride the merry-go-round, drank some lemonade, and walked around looking awkward. It really was the BEST time.
Cholly and Matt are very artsy! Cholly works for Abercrombie & Fitch as a designer and Matt is a graphic designer. I think this session fits them perfectly! Not to mention the way they both look at each other is priceless! I heart them mucho!
so much fun on the Mary-Go-Round!
leave them some love and “like” JaNicki Photography on the FB.
