Chicago Engagement Photography: JoAnn & Danny

Marc — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 15:00:39 +0000

JoAnn found me when I photographed her cousin’s wedding two years ago. It’s her turn to get married this year and based on how fun it was to try and get her to smile (she’s scared of pictures), the wedding is going to be just as fun and awesome =)

I finally got her to smile!!!

Thank you JoAnn and Danny for giving me the opportunity to photograph you guys! I look forward to the wedding this October!!!!

Chicago Portrait Photography: Arianna

Marc — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:00:04 +0000

This past Sunday, I made my way out to visit my cousin Melanie and photographed her beautiful baby daughter Arianna. Everyone falls in love with her the moment they lay eyes on her.

I’m blessed to have such a cute niece. =)

Portrait Shoot: Tiffany & Britt

Marc — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 16:00:04 +0000

With her sister Britt moving away to teach English in Chile, Tiffany and her sister decided to have their photos taken as a surprise gift for their Mom’s birthday coming up. =)

Taken at the Lincoln Park Conservatory, It was nice to be warm when the last few weeks haven’t given Chicago very much promising weather.

Congratulations Sara =)

Engagement: Tiffany & Sebastian

Marc — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 14:00:38 +0000

Tiffany and Sebastian met through co-workers and friends, hanging out at bars and drinking.

What made this different though is that while everyone would be happy just chatting away with casual smalltalk and conversation, Tiffany & Sebastian would have serious conversations in the corner of the bar. Nothing was off topic. From Politics to Religion, the conversations they would have were not the usual barfare

Things blossomed on their own from there =).

It was incredible working with Tiffany and Sebastian. They were so incredibly patient while I ran around and worked like a fool to set up my shots =) Thank you guys so much!

Locations:

Harold Washington Library

Chicago Cultural Center

Chicago’s Shore

Gear:

Onto the images:

We went first to the Harold Washington Library’s Winter Garden:

While shooting, Tiffany randomly found a Post-It note with the words “Smile: =)” on them.

We put it to good use:

Since we were at a library after all, we decided to make use of the books also =D:

Along with that we did some fun things with the rest of the library:

Finishing up with the Library, we then went to the Chicago Cultural Center:

And finally to the shoreline in Chicago that could show a skyline at night =)

Congratulations again you guys!!! I can’t wait for the wedding in September!!!

Fashion Shoot: Jenny

Marc — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 14:00:47 +0000

Christopher & I worked together previously with Vicky to do a fashion shoot a few weeks ago. We got to shoot in Glenview with his friend Jenny for this shoot!

Gear:

Camera: Canon 5D Mark I

Lenses:

50mm f/1.2 L

85mm f/1.2 L II

This time around I decided to try and work with black and white as I haven’t had a pure black & white shoot in a long time.

Some images that I liked:

Thank you so much Jenny for being patient with Chris and I! Hope you had a safe flight back to Cali!!!

Let me know what you guys think!!!

In The Still Of The Night…

Marc — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 14:00:29 +0000

“What Do You See?”

Some people see a storm,

through a path much forlorn,

while Others see a light,

a solution burning bright.

Some see a journey,

Justification affirming,

Others abyssal dark.

Odds oh so stark.

Points of view much contrasted.

emotions vast yet contracted.

What matters is not what you see or don’t.

What matters is if you know there’s both.
