Chelsea and Jared's Summer Beach Engagement Session at Headlands Beach State Park in Mentor, Ohio

I fall in love with Lake Erie every time I'm there. There are a few particular lakes around here that hold such great memories for me and Lake Erie is one of them.

It's a powerful tool and a great place to learn and grow….
