Bender mountain is a hidden gem for your Cincinnati engagement photos. With a rocky river trail and an adventurous hike to a peak with epic views. Perfect for fall or summer engagement photos.

I honestly had no idea what all was in Ohio so everyday I would search for somewhere cool to go. One day I was sitting at home and thought, “Does Ohio have any mountains?” Google Maps popped up Bender Mountain and away I went. When I went there back in November, there was no water in the river. Just all of the rocks and honestly it was so dry that I assumed no water really came through. I went on what felt like the longest hike ever but the top is so beautiful and worth it.

With the rain that finally blessed us this past week, the river FINALLY had water. Kasey and Kyle were down for a fun adventure session and just wait until you see how it turned out. You can feel the spark between these two and I can still hear Kasey’s laugh through all of the photos. There is so much that I love about this photo shoot.

These two have been married for two and half years so this was a fun little celebration since they haven’t had photos done since then (besides Kasey’s kick ass selfies). I’m so honored to have had this opportunity and capture these romantic, fun and some moody moments for these cuties.

Okay, I’ll stop talking now. I hope you love these as much as I do.
