Jordan & Bethany’s Darby House Wedding | Columbus Wedding Photographer


Jordan and Bethany’s Darby House wedding was romantic, autumnal, and timeless. Just west of Columbus in Galloway, Ohio, Darby House sits on a private estate with a long tree-lined lane, white horse fences, and wide open fields. This easygoing couple wanted to soak in every minute of their day, and that’s exactly how we love to work: guiding when it helps, then stepping back so the real moments can happen.

Private Vows and a Grove City Church Ceremony


Before the ceremony, they shared private vows on either side of a stone wall, reading from their vow books and holding hands around the corner. Moments like this are why we capture both photo and video: you get the image, and you get to hear the words again years later. Then it was inside Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Grove City for a timeless church wedding ceremony, framed by a stone altar wall and a stained glass rose window, with a bubble send-off as they walked out as newlyweds.

Veil Portraits at Golden Hour


Back at Darby House, we timed portraits for golden hour, when the sun filtered through the trees along the lane and lit up Bethany’s cathedral veil. These were some of our favorite portraits of the year. Our editing stays true to color and film-inspired, so the warm greens, rust tones, and first hints of fall look just like they did in person. A golf cart ride between spots kept things fun and relaxed.

A Warm Fall Darby House Reception


Burgundy and rust florals from Fiori Florals, terracotta table numbers, and gold candlelight carried their fall palette inside. They cut a Nothing Bundt Cakes cake under the twinkle lights, and a tearful hug between Bethany and her mom was one of our favorite moments of the night. We never trim a gallery down to only the “perfect” shots, so moments like that hug always make it home to our couples.
