Andrea & Jason











Andrea and Jason... a couple so in love, you can see it seeping through all their photos!  These two got married earlier in the month at the Westin River North.  The day was cold and rainy, so we utilized the Presidential Suite for some killer photos.  Don't they look like they could be in a magazine?  The day was filled with tons of laughter and lots of kissing!

Maura & Tim











Last weekend we photographed Maura and Tim's wedding at the Art Institute's Stock Exchange Room.  This couple was great - they were willing to do anything!  Sit on the great staircase in the museum?  Sure!  Walk outside in the rain?  Sure! 

They got married at one of our favorite churches:  Old St. Pat's.  Then, we went back to the museum and enjoyed the night in the Stock Exchange Room while listening to the awesome music abilities of The Party Faithful.

Maggie and Danny's Baby Bump

In 2007 we had the opportunity to work with Maggie and Danny for there wedding. Since then a lot has happened including the newest addition to their family! We were so thrilled when they called us up to do maternity pictures!

It can sometimes be difficult for portrait subjects to warm to the camera, but, after we'd been shooting for a while we ended up catching our lucky break when Maggie's back started to ache and Danny instinctually started rubbing it for her. While we already had made some artistic pictures, it wasn't until they relaxed and did what they always did that we made a picture that everyone agreed was truly them. It just goes to show, sometimes it's the moments in between moments that are the most successful!

In any case, all of our best wishes to the soon to be parents, Maggie and Danny!

Stephanie & David
















Stephanie and David got married in April at the Westin River North.  They had a beautiful ceremony and reception - the florals they chose were absolutely breathtaking!  Another bonus was that we got to see some past clients as well!  It truly was a great party... clearly, even David's mom was having a blast during the Hora! ;-)
