Wedding INK.

It's always fun to photograph people who look at life through a different set of glasses! Matt and Abby fit that model. As you can tell, they look at life differently, and they gave us such a freedom to shoot. As Matt put it, "do your thing! You have to love that especially from a groom! Here are a few of our fav's. My favorite is the one of her shoes. I look at that image and think with all the seriousness that surrounds a wedding, you can still have a bit of fun. Which is what Julia and I are all about. I love the extreme measures a bride and groom will go through to put their stamp of approval, fingerprint, or whatever you want to call it, on their special day.

Meet Francis

Connie and Bill have always been a fun family to photograph. Their famous leg shot proudly hangs not only in their home but, as a showcase gallery wrap in our studio. A little over a year ago, they welcomed a new surprise blessing to their family. We were so honored to get the opportunity to photograph her. Lil Francis was such a peaceful and content baby. She would give us that little smirk, the same smirk that she will probably give her daddy Bill when she wants the credit card. I'm sure Bill being the good guy that he is will glady give her the credit card.

Here is just a few of our faves from her session.

Little Light from Above

About 5 years ago, Julia and I shot the wedding of Lori and Jim Ferrara. They tried for several years to start a family. After much testing and medical miracles, they were blessed in Febuary with not just one but, two beautiful babies. Ava and Alex are two of the most beautiful babies you will lay your eyes on. Jim and Lori asked us to come to Chicago and photograph their young family at their home. It was such a special time for Julia and I to see them as a family. We know how much they wanted this and it's so exciting to see them in the midst of it. It's moments like these that make us proud to be photographers. The realization of the memories we get to help them preserve in their family history! I felt it fitting to leave you with this image because to me, it was as if God was shinning his light on them with his blessings!

Recent Wedding

Thought I would share some recent clicks from a wedding we shot in Chicago. Jonna and Marcus have a love of movies. Marcus is actually a talk show host for a WGN nightime show. It is so appropriate that movies be the theme for their wedding.

We had a lot of fun hanging out with their videographer (a friend of theirs) Pabelo Korana. He is an independent movie producer and director. He provided some nice light for some tough lighting situations. BIG LIGHTS!!
