Chicago Engagement Photography: JoAnn & Danny
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 Engagement Photographer: Andrea & Stan
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
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.
Some of my favorites:
The Best From 2009
It took me a little while, but I managed to put together a “Best Of” Archive from my 2009 weddings. Hope you enjoy and Happy Friday!!!
Engagement: Sara & Steve (My Sister!) – Part II
It is with mucho mucho fanfare that I worked with my sister and her fiance again. This time, Sara and Steve chose to shoot at the Garfield Park Conservatory:
Congratulations Sara =)

Engagement: Tiffany & Sebastian
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:
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!!!
