I'm fully aware weather talk is considered 'small talk" but when your a wedding photographer, it kind of rules your world and living the the Midwest compounds this element of the wedding day. Now that winter is here to stay I can air my love for the amazing weather we had at the end of fall. Amazing!! Jennifer and Steven had the most perfect, perfect day!! Enjoy!

(10.11.09 @ 12:23 AM)For Eli and Lizzy's engagement session earlier this year we had to play it easy and drive to all the Chicago destinations. Eli had ACL surgery just weeks before so I was eagerly awaiting the dance floor wedding moves exactly 6 months after the surgery date. In celebration of Eli's full recovery and Lizzy's fabulous dancing, I've included an large amount of reception pictures.

(09.10.09 @ 09:44 PM)I love the nostalgic feel to this wedding - the hand-made 50's veil, the retro guest book (totally my style) and the classic round cake as centerpieces. And the classic love between two people that you captured flawlessly. Love them!
(09.11.09 @ 03:42 AM)Gorgeous as always Mrs.Clary! I'm in love with the shot of her holding her pearl necklace. Can I get married again so you can shoot my wedding...again??
