Lauren and Shaun's Wedding

It was my last wedding of the 2011 season and I couldn't have thought of a better one to end with. On October 15th, I had the pleasure of second shooting Lauren and Shaun's wedding with my friend Victoria Sprung. It was a beautiful day, starting with a touching ceremony at St. Edmund's Parish in Oak Park and ending with some gorgeous fall foliage and an absolutely stunning reception at the Hyatt Lodge. Congratulations Lauren and Shaun! It was an honor to be a part of your wedding day.

Liz and Tony get married

On September 23, I had the pleasure of second shooting Elizabeth and Tony's wedding with my good friend and colleague Victoria Sprung. Liz did a great job with every single detail, from her vintage look to her beautiful blinged out bouquets to a reception filled with the things she and Tony loved the most: wine, family, friends, memories and laughter. Thank you for having me be a part of your big day, Liz and Tony!

Sarah and Brian's Wedding

I had been looking forward to Sarah and Brian's wedding since I first met them late last year. They're such a sweet couple and were so excited about their big day. I was also pumped that my good friends Neda, of Makeup by Neda, and Stephanie, of Flowers by Stem, assisted Sarah with her look for the day. Everything was just beautiful. The day had been overcast and threatening rain, but the minute everyone arrived at All Saints Episcopal Church the sun pushed through the clouds and the rest of the day was picture perfect. After a personal ceremony with family and friends, Mike and I headed off with the wedding party for a few hours of frivolity at Welles Park, Wrigley Field and Buckingham Fountain. Then it was off to The Ballroom for a lovely reception. Thank you so much, Sarah and Brian, for having us be a part of your big day. It was a pleasure getting to know you and your families. Congratulations again!
