Second Shooting with Stevie T!

As a photographer, it's fantastic having friends who are also photographers! People who get excited with you over a new lens, or a great new location, and it's especially fun to have the opportunity to shoot with them. Miss Stevie T photographed Laurel and Bob's Chicago wedding with me last month, and I, in turn, was able to join her for two recent weddings! As always, I had a blast shooting with her, and I'd love to share a few of my favorite shots with you!

First up, Katerina and Ryan's Greek Orthodox wedding in Maryland!

I started the day out with Ryan and the guys while they got ready.

The church was incredible! I spent the ceremony up in the balcony which allowed for some beautiful shots!

I loved their flowers and color scheme (go blue and gold!... :) ) and the bridesmaids necklaces were all made by Katerina!

The photo on the right is one of my favorites from the whole day! I just love that tree!

Beautiful reception details.

This wedding had the best dancing I've ever seen! It was so much fun to photograph!

The following month, I joined Stevie in Florida for Danielle and Bobby's wedding! Stevie and Danielle have been friends for like, ever, and it was so fun to be a part of this wedding, as both photographers and guests!

I love this one of Danielle and her dad through the crowd :)

I had the perfect spot for close ups during the ceremony!

While Stevie was working with the guys, I got Danielle to model for me!

I just adore this image of Bobby and his grandfather holding hands!

Aren't they sweet together?

I had a great time playing with Stevie's new lensbaby!!

Stunning setting, no? :)

These are Danielle's parents- such beautiful, vibrant, and loving people!

We just had to take some sunset photos!

Candle light ftw!

Thank you, Stevie, for bringing me along!

Might I suggest hiring both of us for your wedding? :)

Laurel and Bob are Married!

Laurel and Bob were married this past weekend in Chicago! It was a beautiful wedding, and I was so glad to get to make the trip out there to be a part of it!

Laurel looked amazing! Truly old Hollywood glam!

Soooo beautiful!

Saint Clement Church in Lincoln Park is pretty spectacular!

I just love this one of Laurel during the ceremony :)

We had some fun with the wedding party photos!

Lincoln Park has such an amazing view of the Chicago skyline!

Pretty reception details at Salvatores!

And to end, something warm and cozy :)

Congratulations Laurel and Bob! And Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! :)

Jen and Don are Married!

Jen and Don were married at The Church of the Divine Child on Saturday! I had such a great time at this wedding! Not only are Jen and Don two of the sweetest, most fun people you'll ever meet, but their family and friends are a blast as well!

I loved this shot of Jen getting her veil adjusted- she looks like a more beautiful version of a Barbie Doll :)

Jen's dress was gorgeous!!

Jen's parent's wedding photo hung near the dress.

Jen's jewelry- something old and something blue.

What a glamorous bride!

As Jen walked down the aisle, I turned to get a shot of Don's reaction, and saw this! It's enough to make a girl a little insecure! ;)

They had a bagpiper playing as their guests exited the church!

After the ceremony, the whole bridal party headed over to Lucky Strike!

Ever see a bride play DDR? ;)

You can find beautiful light just about anywhere!

Jen and Don's reception was at Glen Oaks.

Groomsmen are fun :)

Lucky Strike prizes! Wrist bands! :)

Such a beautiful sky that evening!

Big thanks to Robin for getting some awesome detail shots!

Chateau Band!

Love these! So sweet!
