This gallery is way past complete, but I did promise more images on the blog. Plus, I wanted an excuse to post my absolute favorite image from the entire day. I just adore the archway and the way they are looking at each other.

And I always enjoy the photo of the bride and groom walking back down the aisle together… it’s always one of my favorites.

Some other favorites… first, the beautiful Pleasant Home:

And some randoms from the day (trying to avoid posting the traditional wedding photos this time-except for the dancing. I love the dancing.):

A few pics from last weekend’s wonderful wedding. Beautiful ceremony, adorable couple, huge party… all the makings of a fabulous day! And I was honored to capture some of it (: Here’s a tiny pre-ceremony preview.

As promised, some more images from the J family session. H, your gallery is almost complete – be on the lookout for an email from me on Monday with your link!! I hope these will keep you entertained until then (:

After a lot of rescheduling (gotta love the Chicago weather…), I got to photograph the J family last week. They were definitely worth the wait – such a fun, loving, energetic, and beautiful family. I just had to post a little preview for mom and dad, even though I’ve barely begun to process their images!
Another cute two-year-old (almost three!): Big Sis Z… love those curls!!

And new Baby Brother L… the happiest newborn ever.

I’m just getting started, so more previews from this session are to come….

This summer, I have had so much fun photographing two year olds… I love this age because they really have no concept of what’s going on and after the first few minutes they completely ignore me and go about the usual business of a two-year-old: playing. That means I show up at the session and play, too – and I get pictures of them just being two…. energetic and curious and CUTE!!
A montage of the terrific twos from the last month or two…

Couples are a lot of fun to photograph – maybe it’s because they have someone to interact with so the opportunities for real, candid moments are greater. They have something to focus on besides the camera in their face (:

…posting a few more of T from this weekend. Ah, to be a teenager again! They are so fun to photograph – especially high school seniors because they are so excited about all of the adventures about to come their way after high school. They are the future, you know. (:
At the Crown Fountain in Millennium Park:

On the steps to the L:

And this one was just taken out-and-about in the Loop:

Chicago has so many great places for photographs. Seems every time I leave the house I find a new place and file it away for later use.
Enjoy!

Every year I make it a point to grab my camera and snap at least a few shots of the tulips in Chicago each spring. Aside from the fact that they are my favorite flower (even used them in my wedding!), they are a welcome sign of spring after a long winter. They’re all gone for the season, but I did get some photos of them a few weeks ago.
The first one is from Mich Ave – a classic red.

This one I believe was on either Superior or Chicago Ave, just east of Michigan. A beautiful row of white tulips reflecting the early morning sun.

Enjoy (:
Love this photo essay from the New York Times about some of this years’ Oscar nominees. I have only seen one of the “Best Picture” nominees so far, but some of these photos are just wonderful. Makes me wish for a group of friends who would traipse around the city with me and my camera letting me just be silly and adventurous with it!
Enjoy (:
