I’m feeling the need to post something Spring-y. Elia is such a sweetie and I had tons of fun shooting with her. She smiles all. the. time. And her laugh is so awesome! I love shooting in Oak Brook, and the light cooperated so beautifully. Overall such a fun day of bridal princess-ness! Hair was one by […]

I present to you Brian and Jaymee’s beautiful winter wedding. Portraits were taken by lake Geneva, and the ceremony and reception were held at The Starline Gallery. Kuddos to you Starline people, you’ve really made the space into a beautiful indoor event location. I’m always happy when Jessica Shae books a wedding in my neck […]

What a great way to start out 2013! The first weekend of the year I get to shoot with an awesome couple in GA, that’s what I’m talkin’ about! Joanna and Jonathan have such a cool story. Starting with going to the exact same event years ago, being in the exact same picture, and never […]

This beautiful woman is married now, so I can post her bridals! According to her brother “she has always been the Disney Princess sister of the family.” Does her dress remind you of any dress you’ve seen before? Think yellow. She was so cute while we were shooting! She was finally feeling like her wedding was really […]

This shoot has got to be one of my all time favorite shoots I’ve ever done. You’ll notice that their faces grace my header quite a few times in the rotation. The weather was great and the location was perfect. Ruth was gorgeousness, and I think Chris looks like a handsome, famous singer who’s initials are MB… so, how […]

Fact, Emily is gorgeous. And these are her bridal portraits. She is so cool to work with, and easy to shoot! She was totally open for trying my crazy ideas and had a few of her own.

It is a very rare case in which I’ll do baby portraits.  Of course I do them for my family, but the only other time I really do them is for very close friends, one of my past brides or if someone appeals.  In Grayson’s case his mommy is a close friend, annnd one of my […]

Is it just me, or do you like looking at ‘getting ready’ pictures too? I love shooting the time right before ‘real’ pictures. The bride is preparing to see her man, and there are so many emotions going on.   I was a bride not so long ago, and I remember what it feels like. Excitement, anticipation, eagerness, […]

So, I’m curious, how did you or how do you want to be “farewelled” at your wedding? Or should I say, what do you want people to wave, let loose, or throw at you as walk to your getaway mobile. You have a few options to choose from out there. Rice (in some states), bubbles, […]

 Here’s the next Valentine’s session I did. A mini shoot intended to be given as a gift to her hubby, Trent. You may recognize Christina as one of my 2010 brides. I love Christina’s laugh! And of course we had to get a picture of the newest little valentine for daddy. Awwwwwww! My son may […]
