We had a great time with Allison and Pete at their engagement session in Rocky River Revervation. Pete is an avid Browns Football fan, so we got them up at the crack of dawn for a photo shoot before the game kicked off. We met up for some beautiful sunrise, foggy fall morning shots with Allison, Pete, and their dog, Linus, who didn’t seem at all concerned by the early am.

Once we’d worn out Linus (and Pete) at the park, we headed to the coffee shop for a pick-me-up with some of Allison’s favorite cups. Pete joked that “A” is for “Awesome” and “P” is for “Perfect” which led to a debate over which cup was actually Allison’s… inevitably, the verdict was both! After coffee we took a quick detour to the beach behind The Clifton Club, and with the help of Ed, the gatekeeper, we sneaked in for some windy, chilly beach action.

And, as usual we saved the best for last when we headed to Ohio City for some photos by the chalk wall and inside the West Side Market (which may not have been technically open, but the doors weren’t locked and the security guard didn’t say anything…). Once inside, we were all amazed at what a neat place the market is. Of course we’ve all been there when the market is bustling with customers, but having the place to ourselves was incredible, and it gave Pete a chance to make friends with the Buffalo at the meat stand.

We finished out the photo shoot with some brunch and beer at the Market Garden Brewery just in time for football!
