Jill + Joe {Married}

Trying to catch up on blog posts.  Here's an amazing wedding from the spring.

Joe and Jill were married on a beautiful spring day in downtown Chicago.  I've known Joe since he was just a little guy and his wonderful wife has the ability to make everyone feel like they've known her forever.  Weddings like this are always wonderful!  Their day was filled with heart-warming moments and emotions overflowed in beautiful ways.

We began the day together at Hotel Felix.  Joe and Jill were intentional about setting aside a good chunk of time to take pictures capturing a few amazing areas in Chicago.  We started a Lincoln Park Zoo, then took pictures along Wacker Drive, and lastly visited the bar were Joe and Jill first met, Ocallaghan's Pub.  Their bridal party was really nice and super welcoming! 
 

Their 'first look.' (sigh)

 

Congratulations Jill & Joe!

Skyler {Senior 2014}

Skyler choose Memorial Union Terrace for his senior shoot. The weather was amazing and he came with a great attitude.

Liz + Nick {Love}

Nick and Liz were married in a beautiful winter ceremony at the Lutheran Church of the Living Christ.  It's has a beautiful sanctuary!

They ended their ceremony with wide smiles on their faces as a wonderful live version of jingle bells, complete with bells, wooden blocks and 'slap sticks' played.  It was so much fun and probably my favorite church exit ever!

Congratulations Nick and Liz!

 

 

Aaden {1 year old}

I met Aaden and his parents, Amanda and Aaron, and their cute dog, Allie, at Epic in Verona.  I've heard lots of things about the creative work environment at Epic, but had never had a chance to get inside.  Aaden was adorable during his pictures.  A belated Happy Birthday buddy!

Congratulations Katie, Tim and Bryson!  Welcome to the world Anna Lou!
