Chicago Engagement Photographer: Andrea & Stan

Marc — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 15:00:28 +0000

Andrea & Stan were actually guests at the same table I was sitting at during Maria & Dmitry’s wedding reception, so I was totally flattered that they remembered me when it was their turn to get married.

Wanting to try a location I hadn’t shot at before, I asked them to meet me at the Art Institute of Chicago. Some of my favorite shots are below:

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.

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!!!

Image of The Moment Monday: “The 5 Points.”

Marc — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 14:00:55 +0000

“The Five Points.“

Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5

10 images taken going from left to right with my Nikon D200 and then stitched together using autostitch are what created this image.

A Graffiti Mecca, The 5 Points in Manhattan, New York showcases some of the finest graffiti work in the world.
The was no other way to describe how much works of art are on display for anyone and everyone to see here.

No single image of a single piece of art on display here could completely show how incredible and amazing The Five Points are to behold in person.
As much as I tried, I couldn’t find a single image that I felt would be satisfying enough for me to display the staggering amount of work on display to any and all.

So I decided to pull out a tripod to capture an image of all the artwork =D
