Paxton and Alexis’ Toledo, Ohio Engagement Session

Alexis and I have known each other since high school, so when she reached out to me to photograph her wedding, I was so excited! We have traveled across the country together for mission trips and band performances, but this will be one of the best adventures we are on together! So now here is a bit of their story and about their engagement session!

Alexis and Paxton met while in school at the University of Toledo, so we decided to head back to that exact location! Both Alexis and Paxton are engineers, so of course, they met in the engineering building at the University of Toledo. We wandered the halls of the University of Toledo over their Thanksgiving break, so the halls were empty. They showed me where their story started, and the halls they walked every day during their college careers. Not only did we head to the building where they met, but we actually went to the very classroom they met!

Once we walked the whole engineering building, we decided to head to Wildwood Metropark. Anyone who lives in Toledo or around Toledo knows Wildwood. We have all wandered the trails, stood in awe of the Manor House, and watched the wildlife scurry across the paths. In fact, I’m pretty sure all of us have been on dates there, including Paxton and Alexis. 

Even though it was November, there was a little bit of green we were able to take advantage of! While we were in that area, a deer wandered up behind Paxton and Alexis and was in the back of the photos! Once we were finished there, we made our way to the Manor House and finished up their photos there!
