I was excited to meet Tania and Mike at the Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago last weekend for their engagement session, we had become good friends on Facebook and planned a lot for this session via email – it was good to meet in person!! Planning a winter engagement session here in Chicago can be tough. The weather in Chicago from January thru March is SO unpredictable. We opted for a guarantee that we would have great photos and reserved a permit to shoot at the Garfield Park Conservatory. We got lucky and it was a warmer day (warmer- I mean 30 degrees, yes that is warm for Chicago winters, lol!!) and we had the opportunity to do a few photos outside of the conservatory as well. Tania and Mike are such a beautiful couple, it was nice to hear their story, get to know them better and hear about their wedding plans for their destination wedding in Mexico this coming April. Congratulations Tania and Mike!!

When I first met with Laura and John, I was very excited about their wedding plans. They decided to do things a little different, being Artists I wouldn’t expect anything less. Laura wore a green wedding dress ( her favorite color – and mine too- we are kindred spirits!) she traded a traditional bouquet in for a tin star lantern- uber cute! As well as opted for a eclectic Restaurant on the West side for their reception- SO MUCH FUN! I had a blast documenting their day – and this is a silly group – needless to say everyone was having a great time! We met at the Garfield Park Conservatory for some pre wedding photos, braved it outside for a few minutes and then headed to Assumption Church for the ceremony. After Church we toured the city for some photos, including Kinzie Bridge and the Dana Hotel before heading to Wishbone for the Party! What an amazing wedding – So much fun and such an extraordinary couple to dare to be different. Congratulations Laura and John, Thanks for letting me be a part of your amazing day!
Laura makes the cutest faces, add that with amazing light…love it!
Love all the little details – and the amazing invitation that John designed himself!
A little shout out to all the amazing vendors that helped make Laura and John’s day perfect!!

I had an amazing opportunity to meet one of my Chicago June 2011 wedding couples in Texas while I was there for an Engagement session. I had not met Julie and Ryan, we had only spoken on the phone a few times, I was super excited for their upcoming wedding at Danada House this June, but even more excited to get to know them a bit better before the wedding. We had an amazing time walking around Downtown San Antonio, exploring and finding some interesting places for photos. Here are some of my favorites!! Congratulations Julie and Ryan – I can’t wait for your wedding – it is going to be amazing!

Last week I was in Texas at PPA Imaging event – which is a HUGE photography conference that takes place once a year, sponsored by Professional Photographers of America. I headed down to Texas with amazing friends and very talented photographers, Christina, Kelly and Deonna for a week of learning, taking a look at the latest products and gear and of course some vacation time in the historic city of San Antonio. We had a blast!! We explored a little of San Antonio and the missions, as well as team shot an engagement session for my lovely June couple, Julie an Ryan, who live in Dallas (more to come on that soon). Here are some of my favorite photos – some are super silly, lol
Yes – silly photographers using a menu as a reflector
