I have to tell you a little secret about taking photos at Ault Park in Cincinnati. The best time to be there for photos is early in the morning, when the light comes in from behind the gorgeous staircase and fountain. Not only does the light look best, but it’s also way less crowded than it is later in the day. When J & M told me they wanted to do a sunrise engagement session at Ault Park, I was so excited.

This spring engagement session is what dreams are made of. We began our time together at French Park in Cincinnati. K + J brought their dog, Geneva, along to be a part of the beginning of their engagement session. Towards the end of our time at French Park, a friend came by to pick their pup up so they could spend some time getting images of just the two of them.
