Carolyn and Sara are getting married at the beautiful Ivy Room in early May. After a long winter, we were finally able to get outside to shoot their e-session. It was chilly, but at least the sun was out! We loved working with these two; they are so clearly in love, and were obviously so happy to just be able to spend some time together.
Here are a few of our favorites from the afternoon.
Once again, we are a bit behind in our blogging. This is a time of year when we take advantage of fewer weddings happening and travel to pursue work on personal projects and better ourselves as photographers and artists.
In between two trips, we had the honor of working with Donna Albertson and some of Chicago's best wedding vendors at a Valentine's Day party at the Ivy Room at Tree Studios. There was incredible food from the Entertaining Company, Blue Plate, Berghoff, and Limelight. The decor was all designed by the amazing Erin McDonald at Heffernan Morgan, and the lighting was all by Frost. Larry King Orchestra kept everyone dancing; they are a ridiculously talented band, and so fun! We were honored to be a part of such a talented team.
Here are a few of our favorites from that evening.

Mark and Ligia are getting married in May; they had dreamed of being photographed in the snow for their engagement session. We waited, and when a big snow storm hit, we went out to shoot. The lakefront looked so different covered in snow, and all three of us had fun being the first to make footprints in fresh snow! I loved shooting in such a different environment, and capturing a unique time not only in Mark and Ligia's lives, but also that quiet moment when everything stands still because of the snow. Here are a few of my favorite images from that day:
