Love Photography & Custom Framing

Love Photography was established by Al Fess in 1970. He has become an accredited Master Photographer, who trained and taught many others over the years. Among them, his son Derek Fess, who started working at his father's studio in 1987 and went on to open his own location in 1996 in Westlake, Oh. Al has since retired his studio, but is by no means “retired”; he still loves to pick up a camera and jump in to help out. His passion is shooting for model portfolios and artistic nudes. Derek has been proudly building upon his father's vision and serving the community's photography needs with coverage of weddings, private and commercial events and a variety of studio portraiture. His talents and creativity have been saught out for countless local and many destination weddings and events. His work has been awarded, recognized and published in several local publications. Tatiana joined the Love Potography studio in 1998 as a digital artist and photography assistant and in 1999 as his wife and partner. Her primary passion is graphic arts and design; making ordinary into extra-ordinary. Since then she became an awarded portrait photographer who loves to photograph couples, children, business clients, high school seniors and boudoir sessions. When time permits, she is occasionally assisting with weddings and events.
