Eric + Regina

What a BEAUTIFUL morning it was Saturday. Eric and Regina had an intimate 10am ceremony together with their son, close family and friends. We started off at Lilacia Park in Lombard then jumped across the street to the ever so cute Maple Street Chapel. It was a pleasure to be included in this day filled with lots of love and excitement.

Rudd and Katherine :: Allerton Hotel :: Chicago Wedding

Last weekend I spent Saturday with Rudd and Katherine at the Allerton Hotel Chicago. Even though it was a little wet outside you would never guess by the happiness these two shared. If we were to be stuck inside anywhere, I am glad it was as beautiful as the Allerton. I had a blast getting to know everyone, jammin' out with the bag pipes, laughing along with some great toasts, and feeling the tightness of these two families who were so proud of the newly married couple! Congrats and cheers to many more travels!

Joffrey Ballet Grand Opening on State Street in Chicago

I met up with Jonathan Ryan, Creative Director - A Perfect Event, for the Grand Opening of The Joffrey Ballet Friday night. The new administrative office and studio space is located on the corner of Randolph and State Street. The space was spectacular with corner views of Chicago's State Street Theater District. Here are a few detail and promotional shots before the night's festivities began.

Baby Emily

What a cutie!! Emily was a little apprehensive when she first arrived at the studio, but in no time she was at ease. She was such "a little doll baby" as my grandmother would say. You could tell she was so observant and curious about the new world around her. I am just finishing up her edit, but here are a few teasers I just had to share.

Rich + Amy

What a wonderful weekend it was in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin for Labor Day. Rich and Amy picked a great spot to relax for the weekend with family and friends. The ceremony and reception were held at the Osthoff Resort. Their day was laid back and fit the two of them perfectly - complete with cocktail hour out on the water for the wedding party! It was an honor for me to be a part of such a memorable weekend.
