The Chicago Bridal Market

Nick recently shot the Chicago Bridal Market for The Knot. It was really exciting to see some of the amazing fashions coming for the 2009 season! The bird cage veil is back, along with short wedding dresses and whimsical accessories. We can't wait to start shooting some of these exciting trends in the next months!

Baby Caroline

In 2006, Mike shot Beth Ann and Scott's wedding at the MCA. We made some really amazing pictures that day! Recently, they brought their brand new baby girl in for a few pictures. She is so beautiful! It was wonderful to see them again and the newest addition to their family. It is truly one of our favorite things when our relationship with our clients lasts beyond the wedding day.
Thank you Beth Ann and Scott!

Billy & Candy

A few weeks ago, I shot some pictures of my friends, Billy and Candy, who are getting married next year. They met in high school in Hyde Park. So we went there to make a few pictures. We had beautiful light and it was a great time!

lizz sisson: one light

Last week Lizz traveled to Northern California to learn explore a bit more with lighting. She attended two workshops with the well-known Zach Arias and David Beckstead. While the photographers are vastly different in style, their workshops complimented one another in a seamless fashion. Lizz had an amazing time, and came away from the experience with many new connections and some fabulous images:

In the Community

September is always a crazy month at Gerber+Scarpelli. But we have made time this month to work with some great local charities. Kurt and Nick shot the Toque dinner for COSI (Children's Oncology Services, Inc.) last week. Some of the finest chefs in Chicago bring their talents to this fantastic dinner. Kurt and Nick both had a wonderful time shooting this event!

Also last week, Belen worked for IPRAC (Institute of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture). They are working on their new space in Humbolt Park. Part of that construction was the installation of a mosaic by New York based artist Manny Vega. It was a really amazing experience.

Belen goes to Spain!

Earlier this summer, Belen, one of our photographers, went to Spain to celebrate her father's 60th birthday. She was able to get away for just over two weeks, during which she went to Bilbao, Barcelona, and Madrid. She came back with some pretty cool pictures.
