Alyssa and Adam

We have always had good intentions to keep our blog updated and showcase all the beautiful weddings that we photograph but between wrangling our three awesome boys, all the (MANY) photo shoots this past year, and the work we've done with animal rescue our blog has been neglected.  Over the next couple of weeks we are going to be posting a few of the weddings we photographed this past year and, hopefully, this coming wedding season we will be able to keep things updated a little better!  

Today's post is going to showcase some of our favorite photos from Alyssa and Adam's wedding at Emerson Creek Pottery and Tea Room in Oswego, IL. We love getting some fresh air and photographing weddings that are out in the country.  Emerson Creek is one of our favorite places to shoot as it has a cute bridal coop for getting ready shots, the tented reception area that backs up to a converted shed that's perfect for cocktails, and all the beautiful scenery to take portraits in front of. But more importantly we wanted to share this wedding because Alyssa and Adam are so in love with each other and it was such a joy to photograph their sunny September outdoor ceremony.

Kimberley and Dan's Wedding

Kimberley and Dan's gorgeous summer wedding was held on a rustic farm at a place called Emerson Creek Pottery and Tearoom.  I loved the laid back rural vibe this venue had.  Emerson Creek had a bridal coop for getting ready shots, an outdoor ceremony space with a cornfield backdrop, a barn/tent reception, and a tea room for portraits- this place was amazing!  Kimberley, Dan, and party were a great group of people to work for and I'm so excited to show them all of their photos.  Enjoy this snapshot of their day! -Jake

Rhian and Cameron's Wedding

Rhian and Cameron had a beautiful early-Autumn day for their wedding at the Emerson Creek Pottery and Tea Room.  Their rustic theme was accentuated with the perfect amount of glamor and sweetness.  Their wedding colors of ivory, navy and gray were beautifully complimented by their choice of flowers.

We loved the personal touches they added throughout their day, and who can resist a dapper groom with a bolo tie and a bone ring?

Rhian and Cameron's short, sweet and heartfelt ceremony was held outside and we simply adored the wagon that their beautiful one year old daughter was wheeled in with!!

We had so much fun with this couple, and are excited to share a few of our favorite images from their day:
