Jenna and Conner’s wedding day at Franklin Park Conservatory was the kind of celebration that feels both modern and timeless — a day filled with emotion, intention, beautiful design, and the most joyful energy. From their first look at the iconic Hotel LeVeque to their candlelit ceremony in the Palm House, every moment unfolded in the most stunning way.
A First Look at Hotel LeVeque
The day began at Hotel LeVeque in downtown Columbus — a space known for its celestial-inspired design, soft golden tones, and floor-to-ceiling elegance. It was the perfect setting for Jenna and Conner’s first look.
As soon as Conner turned around, everything shifted into pure emotion. Jenna looked absolutely radiant. They held onto each other, laughed, cried a little, and soaked in one of the sweetest moments of their entire day. The energy between them was so natural and so connected — and photographing those quiet, emotional minutes in such a beautiful setting felt magical.
After their first look, we wandered through the hotel’s lobby and surrounding downtown streets for portraits. The combination of architectural lines, soft light, and their effortless chemistry made every frame so easy and so gorgeous.
A Lush, Romantic Ceremony in the Palm House
Their ceremony took place inside the Palm House at Franklin Park Conservatory — one of Columbus’s most iconic wedding venues and an absolute dream for photography. The towering glass ceiling, tropical greenery, and warm, glowing light created a setting that felt intimate, exotic, and almost otherworldly.
Underneath swaying palms and surrounded by their closest people, Jenna and Conner shared vows that were tender, personal, and deeply heartfelt. The love in the room was palpable.
Sunset Portraits Among the Gardens
Franklin Park Conservatory’s outdoor gardens gave us the most stunning soft light right after the ceremony. We moved through the pathways, tucked into hidden corners, and chased that perfect golden glow. Jenna and Conner were so present and joyful — the kind of couple who make every moment feel full of life.
A Candlelit Reception Filled With Heart
The reception inside the Palm House was warm, romantic, and overflowing with ambiance. Candlelight flickered across the tropical leaves, lush florals softened the space, and the Conservatory’s glass walls showcased the night sky. Speeches were emotional, the dance floor was packed, and the entire evening felt like one long, joyful celebration.
Everything about their day felt true to them — effortless, elegant, and full of heart.

The way these two look at each other could melt anyone. They have that once-in-a-lifetime, steady, soul-level kind of love. Capturing this day was such an honor, and I’m so grateful I got to document every beautiful detail.
