Merry Christmas!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a phenomenal Christmas, I sure did! Then again, any holiday with my amazing hubby is wonderful. I can't believe this year is almost over already. It seems like it has blown by quicker than ever. Maybe the great years do that more than others, who knows. I am totally excited for this next year. I have decided to limit the number of weddings I shoot this year to make sure I can give an awesome amount of attention to my awesome clients. I will only be taking on up to seven weddings this year. Two slots have already been filled, so that leaves five openings for the rest of the year. I really think that my wedding clients should get the VIP treatment, which is why I've made the decision to do things this way this year. If you've been thinking about booking with me, give me a call... I'd love to make your wedding one of my final five VIP weddings this year.

As far as senior portraits go, spring is one of the prettiest times to take photos. Call Me or email me to book your session in advance, beat the rush, and get a fifty dollar gift card towards your session as a Christmas gift from me to you.

Ok my friends, have an amazing and happy new year!!! Keep checking back for the latest news, photos, and random stories! Happy new year!!!!

Katie & Stephen wedding teaser

Yesterday (Saturday) I had the pleasure of assisting my talented friend Amy Aiello (Amy Aiello Photography)at the wedding of Katie Saul, who I went to high school with. Katie is two years older than I am, so she and I didn't go to school together for too long, but we did do some plays and musicals together, and one thing she would always say was that she was going to marry an Irishman someday. I believed that she would... so I was not the least bit surprised when Amy told me that Katie was getting married to an Irish lad. Apparently their paths crossed many times in Ireland while Katie was living there for a few years, but they didn't meet until katie moved back to Chicago. One night at a bar... there he was, and by her sister's account, Katie was smitten.

I'm so happy for Katie and Stephen, and I hope they have a wonderful honeymoon! I'm also totally grateful to Amy for letting me tag along and snag some great shots. Be sure to check out her site because I know she'll post some pics on her blog and they will look fab! Here's just one for now... I have so many to go through and it will be so hard to narrow them down because katie looked simply stunning... but I must! So goodnight for now, enjoy the teaser... =)

Something cool to share

so I came across this company a while back, and I think that what they do is super creative, and since I love innovative companies, I'm going to share it with you. They're called Threadless, and they print t-shirts with designs submitted by every day people. Which is awesome. You can rate people's designs, and if it's a popular one they will print a limited run of them. I've got a bunch, and love that they're so unique and out of the box.

So anywhoo, they're cool you should check it out. Plus, they're having a nice little sale just in time for Christmas, so why not, right? =) I got a few myself.... hehe
