Northeast Ohio Couples Photography

Northeast Ohio Couples Photography

You want a photo experience that feels fun and stress-free. Maybe something that even just feels like a peaceful date with your love spending quality time together? No cheesy poses, no forced smiles, just the two of you being yourselves.

I'm here to help make that happen for you. Let's say "goodbye" to stressful, awkward photos.


For couples who want a different photo experience.

During your session, we'll work together to capture moments between you and your love that feel natural and authentic to you. I'll give you prompts to help you interact naturally or you can focus on a favorite activity to ensure you get gorgeous photos.

"I cannot recommend Desiree enough as a photographer! She made my husband and I feel immediately at ease during a recent couples photoshoot - we felt as if we were on a fun date and forgot someone was following behind with a lens. The photos were incredible- we felt they captured our personality and love- and had the stunning backdrop of a lavender field! To that point, she has plenty of ideas for local locations that are creative and scenic. We have many photos from the shoot hanging in our home."

As we are planning your session, we will think through some back up locations and activities in case of inclement weather. If it is just sprinkling day of, we can likely continue on as normal. In case of more severe weather, we will work together to pivot.
