HI!
Posted on March 8, 2010
I’m alive but taking the day off and trying not to work but it’s really difficult! It was a great weekend and I want to thank everyone who came out! I really appreciate it! I was going to post pictures and all that jazz today but the camera still sits in the bag and I’m going to do it tomorrow morning! So you have some eye candy then! Isabelle greeted everyone and I know you all came for her
I will say that I’m announcing my April boudoir dates! April 8 will be a night boudoir sessions for the mini sessions that cost $150! April 25th will be the full day marathon! Cynthia Sally will be doing the makeup for both and I know you’re excited!
So if you’re interested in those dates, just let me know! I’ll be running 1-2 dates of boudoir a month and suggest it 1-2 months ahead of time!
Tune in tomorrow for the pictures of the studio!

Aaron and Loretta do not disappoint!
Posted on March 5, 2010
There’s nothing like a couple that says, I want winter engagement pictures! We literally rescheduled about 3 times due to weather or other circumstances but we were able to fit them in on Sunday, finally! I loved Loretta and Aaron’s first session that was just in their favorite local area which was so much fun. They also were not afraid to be themselves or be silly. They’re not at all camera shy and a lot of fun and I could imagine the craziness that would ensue if we ever had a meal and drinks together! They’re just fun. I couldn’t narrow it down. I even thought about a slideshow because these pictures are just so…them. They scream Loretta and Aaron! I can’t wait until their May wedding!! We started at the Lincoln Park Zoo and went from there!
this one I just love. that’s all I have to say about it.

and can we look at that hair accessory!? Just wonderful ![]()

the one on the right just cracks me up!

I suggested this one, I wasn’t sure if it was going to turn out and it did!!

love is….lying in a giant pile of mulch for an engagement shoot

this one is also a favorite! After walking around the entire zoo, we finally got out to where I wanted to go and this foggy chicago skyline just makes me feel wintery!

This one is a little more dramatic than my usual but I just love it, the lighting turned out perfect, everything is just perfect here!!

I love separating couples and telling them to pose, the guy generally does what Aaron did and just stands there while the girl does something fun, or usually the do the EXACT same thing (which Loretta and Aaron did do in the first frame, haha)

sorry Aaron, this was too funny NOT to post!

I’ve run out of commentary on how much I love these.

I always make winter engagements snowball fight, I think it’s necessary. I really do! Aaron and Loretta were all in and pretty much planned it too. Aaron had one request: snowball exploding on him, and here you go!

whew! That was a long post!! But completely worth it! I’m so excited to start shooting again! I can’t wait for my 2010 weddings and being able to produce amazing photographs!

The cupcake debacle
Posted on March 5, 2010
So my husband thought I was crazy that I made cupcakes for the dog but I was assured by my other furparents that I was not. And of course I had to document it! I’ve been pretty lazy about capturing our stuff because I have a camera glued to my face every weekend and working hard, so I tend to calm down a bit on our own stuff. I don’t take my camera everywhere but shhh, don’t tell anyone.
First, this is how she spent her birthday, hello nylabone #3

She’s such a princess, she uses pillows like humans do.
I’m not sure how this is comfortable…
“can I go back to sleep now mom?”
“seriously, you woke me up AGAIN?”
“aaah stretch! This sock looks delicious…”
Hi honey, nope, this isn’t your sock that I’m letting her chew on while taking pictures, not your sock at all….
And now it’s cupcake time! Notice how she perks up when the cupcake gets set down…
“is this mine mom? I’m just going to sniff it….” (notice David in the background ignoring this whole situation…lol)
“um yeah, this is mine.”
“this is delicious!”
“I’m just going to take it before they realize what’s going on and take it from me…”
(notice the frosting on the carpet…thanks belley…I seriously can’t wait to get it replaced this May!!)
gotta get all the crumbs!!
“is there any more left on the plate!?”
“thanks mom!!”
Now wasn’t that fun!? Happy 1 year Isabelley

I’m a tease!
Posted on March 4, 2010
I promise lots of blogging tomorrow, been busy obviously
I have a fun winter engagement session (I love my 2010 clients) and Isabelle eating cake which is pretty entertaining! And no, no pictures until after Sunday!! You better come!! I promise it’ll be worth it! Prove the hubby wrong that I actually have clients as he laughed and thought only our families would come! I know some of you out there are coming but I’m hoping to see a lot of you! Thanks so much for the kind words! Isabelle will be there too with the husband (so you can meet who I throw under the bus a lot. He provides a lot of material for me. Hi honey, love you. I don’t think he actually checks the blog, for good reason too!).
So until tomorrow!! Be there sunday or be square! (yep, I said that and it’s ok for everyone who told me they couldn’t make it you are not square!)
