lynn+tom+will+jacob | Columbus Ohio family photography

another team that is no stranger to the blog, their family photography has been featured here for the past 5 years! when I think about how many times I’ve been able to photograph this family, my heart seriously explodes. Ever since Will was just a baby, they’ve trusted me over and over again and that means the world to me. These boys make me work for it tho, I had to pull out all of my tricks and more. But I always love the end results. Here are my faves from our time together!

Lynn and tom, thank you over and over again for continuing to trust me to capture your family. it really truly is an honor. I adore you guys. xxJBZ

Megan Danser - These boys are too much! Soooo many happy smiles! And I love the ones of mama with her boys. Fab captures Jenny!! xoxo

A first time family to the blog! I am so happy I was able to squeeze them in on a beautiful fall day! I had so much fun with these sweet kiddos. Little Landon had my cheeks hurting from smiling so much. What a little ham he is. I love the outfits Char coordinated for everyone too, straight from their closets! Enjoy my faves from our time together!!

char and Tommy, thank you fro trusting me with your family photography!! xxJBZ

carrie+rob+max | Columbus family photography

So… this team is no stranger to the blog. I’m humbled and honored to be able to capture their family photography year after year. Max still has the same smile that can light up any room that he’s had since he was 6 months old. To be able to watch him grow, and capture him every year, gah that means so much to me. And this year, he made my job soooo easy. A total ham in front of the camera. Smiles on cue! and melts my heart every time. I honestly couldn’t love this family more. Enjoy my faves from our time together!


carrie and rob, thank you for trusting me year after year to capture these images for you! You’ll never know how much it means to me! I adore you all! xxJBZ

Megan Danser - OMG!!! This family is toooo cute!!! Max has the BEST smile! Especially love that second vertical family shot. Perfection as always JBZ!!! xoxo

lauren+steve+henry+margaret | Columbus Ohio family photography

I’ve said it before but its worth repeating: being asked to do family photography year after year for my clients/friends is an honor I hold really close to my heart. I love getting to see families and their littles grow. Sweet,  silly Henry and beautiful, serious Margaret are prime examples. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing both of these sweet babies since they were born (here’s Henry & here’s Margaret). And now here they are, Margaret just turned a year old and Henry is almost three already. Why does time pass so quickly? I simply adore this entire family and could easily have taken these little peanuts home with me. And can we talk about how great Lauren is at coordinating their outfits?

these babies really love each other. Henry is so good at making his sissy laugh!oh these sweeties!!

I included a few more than I usually do for a blog post because I just couldn’t narrow down the expressions from these kiddos! Lauren & Steve, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for trusting me year after year to capture these images for you! I love you guys. snuggle those sweet babes for me! xxJBZ

lindsay+joe | Columbus Ohio wedding photography

this wedding.. you guys, THIS WEDDING! we had the most amazing day in a beautiful location, not to mention, one of the best brides and grooms EVERRRRR! I was swooning over Lindsay’s dress and just how perfect she looked, all day. And Joe, not looking so bad himself, had the best smile on all day, especially after he saw his girl. I cried more than a couple times as yet another one of my cheerleaders, who I’ve known since she was little, grew up and got married. It was just the best day and Scioto Reserve Country Club was such a beautiful backdrop for this gorgeous wedding.

Lindsay and Joe, your day was so absolutely perfect. you are just the best couple and I absolutely adore you. I hope you are enjoying every bit of newlywed life. xxJBZ
