Hello, soon to be bride or groom!

Chris Aram Photography  was voted a Best of Weddings 2011 pick. Thank you to my fantastic brides and grooms!

Thanks for stopping by! I'm Chris Aram, and this is my personal blog, which is mostly what happens when I'm behind a lense doing what I really enjoy: making awesome pictures, capturing awesome moments and working with awesome people!

Speaking of awesome things I enjoy, I am happily married to my beautiful wife and really enjoy spending time with her, our two children and our family and friends. Throw in a little PS3, music and eating (too much sometimes), and you've got a pretty good idea of what I like to do.

If you're interested in working with me, please don't hesitate to contact me via e-mail at chrisaram@hotmail.com or by phone at 614.973.9599.

Jackie and AJ : Married

August 16, 2010

You might remember Jackie and AJ from their killer engagement session on Ohio State campus, where Jackie attended university. Jackie and AJ just have this natural mojo in front of a camera together and I really enjoyed shooting their engagement pictures with them – they had plenty of great ideas and made em all rock! :)

So a few short months later, their big day arrived. They were married at the beautiful High Street United Methodist church in Springfield, with the reception following at the nearby Marriott.

It felt easy to take pictures of a couple this totally in love with each other. ;-) And now, a few of my favorites! :D

Sarah and Nate : Married!

August 10, 2010

Sarah and Nate were joined by their family and friends at NorthPointe for an emotional, poignant, fun-filled wedding day. And they, and their guests, just took over the dance floor like I have never seen. ;-)

I loved that their wedding felt so personally theirs; everything from the main event to the table decorations and favors. And that’s just about all I have to say about this amazing couple and their amazing wedding. Sometimes, I just gotta shut it and hope that my pictures will tell this wonderful story much better than I can put into words. :D

Long-time readers of my blog know that I am a huge fan of the private “first look” …

Because there shouldn’t be anything “formal” about a formal portrait …

Luisa and Gordon : Married!

August 9, 2010

Luisa and Gordon were married on the beautiful Kenyon College campus – easily one of the prettiest venues I have ever shot. “Beautiful” is also a word I would use to describe their wedding day and Luisa and Gordon’s love for each other! :) Following their super-fun German Village engagement shoot, I’ve really been looking forward to photographing their wedding – and it did not disappoint!

If a picture’s worth a thousand words, how about a couple dozen of them? :D

Often when I am shooting the “formal” portraits I ask people to “do something crazy” or unexpected; whatever comes to mind. Their wedding party came up with some pretty comical stuff … ;-)
