Peter and Sarah

It's always a special honor to be included in the weddings of our family.  Jennifer's cousin Peter, and his stunning bride, Sarah, had the sweetest DIY wedding at the Farnsley Moremen Landing in Louisville, KY a few weeks ago.  Their beautiful, heartfelt ceremony was filled with laughter and love, and we couldn't be happier for the two of them.

We loved all their delicate and simple details, and the way Peter couldn't take his eyes off of his new wife - or the smile from his face.  Our kids loved the ice cream bar, and exploring the beautiful grounds of the property!

Many congratulations to this amazing couple as they start their life together.

We love you!

Melissa and Bradley's Engagement Session

If you contact us about doing an Engagement Session and your ideas include your favorite Ice Cream Shoppe, your dog (whose name is THOR), flesh-color Hulk hands, and a heavily graffitied lot...we are going to say yes.  And chances are, we are going to want to be friends with you too. At least, that's how it went with Melissa and Bradley.

These two are simply amazing, and we cannot wait to do their wedding next September!

Have a look at a few of our favorite images from their fantastic Engagement Session in Logan Square:

Trent and Lauren's Engagement Session

This beautiful couple was so easy to work with.  They came with a lot of great ideas, were perfectly styled and had an abundance of enthusiasm for the shoot! We had a lot of fun going to the various locations they chose, and even grabbed some ice cream from a bicycle vendor!

It was a beautiful day for their session, and we couldn't have asked for better light to work with!

Congratulations on your engagement, Trent and Lauren!

Dan and Julia's Engagement Session

Dan and Julia had a perfect evening for their Engagement Session in Chicago a few weeks ago! We decided to start the shoot at the 4th Presbyterian Church, which is where Dan popped the big question.  From there we jumped over to the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company which is one of Julia's favorite local places (she's a girl after my own heart), and then we finished up with some skyline shots at North Avenue Beach.

Aren't they just the sweetest?

Preview - Amanda and Wei's Engagement Session

The other day I met up with Amanda and Wei at the campus of UW in Madison, WI for their engagement photos.  What could be better than eating handmade ice cream on a pier over a frozen lake?!
