Angela was an absolutely stunning bride both during her bridal session and of course also on her wedding day. Here are a few of my favorite images from her bridal session a few weeks ago. Come back soon for the sneak peek of her and Doug's wedding that happened just this past Saturday!
This is one of my favorite sessions from my session-marathon back in October. During that time, I had 17 sessions and two weddings all within 14 days. It was crazy... but crazy fun! These two finished off my two weeks of traveling with a fun-filled session. The rain had been threatening us all day so once again I had clients preparing for a session in the rain. And once again... the rain gave us a little break and even allowed a bit of sunshine in on this session. I was so grateful! I love the emotions captured in these pictures. Kellen & Ashley are So in love and have such great chemistry! I am super excited to photograph their wedding day next fall!
These two kicked off my 2010 Fall Season with an amazing session! :) So I am currently on the road for 10 days for two weddings and six sessions on the calendar. As you can imagine, my calendar is pretty packed. When Daniela texted me the night before her session and asked me what we should do if it rained, I had to go with my only option. I hesitantly suggested a session in the rain and to my surprise, they were totally up for it! We all came prepared with rubber boots, umbrellas, and extra changes of clothing. However, the rain moved on at the last minute and we had an absolutely gorgeous evening and a quiet location all to ourselves.
I couldn't have asked for a better way to start this super busy few weeks! Daniela and Zach, thanks for being so easy to work with and so willing to do what I asked. I can't wait for your wedding next May!
Samantha contacted me last fall to schedule an engagement session and between the busy fall portrait season and the holidays, we were unable to make it happen during that time. Fortunately, she contacted me again a few weeks ago to try again to schedule a session and this time we were able to do it! Samantha and Scott were wonderful models - easy going and relaxed in front of the camera. Beautiful, relaxed and happy subjects always make great portraits, and I am happy to report that I absolutely LOVE the way their session came out. They brought their baby girl, Daisy, along and she couldn't have been better behaved. I was continually impressed by her eagerness to please and obey (especially considering I'm in the process of trying to train my own dogs and it is soooo not easy!) and also how she would just sit off to the side and wait patiently while I took photos of Samantha and Scott alone! I loved having her around and hope to get to hang out with her again sometime in the future!
Without further ado...
I wish you all the best as you get married in Illinois later this year!
