So, we decided take the plunge this Fall and step ‘Outside The Box’ with our wedding reception photography by offering a photo booth, of sorts. We’d done a few weddings where our brides/grooms hired a specialty company with an actual booth that took four shots while you were inside said booth.…
One of our favorite parts about booking weddings is getting to know our couples – being their photographer feels more like being part of their families, and that’s important to us. Leslie and Chuck were pretty comfortable in front of our lenses on their wedding day, but we’d already spent a couple hours together on a hot, sticky, humid day surrounded by cicadas during their engagement session.…
You know how in life there are those moments when you meet a couple, and you get to talking about what they do, where they live, how they met, etc. And then you ask, “Well, where are you from?” Yeah, that last one got us with Ken and Gary because Gary replied, “I’m from a really little village in Logan County that no one has ever even heard of.” To which Bill responded, “Try me.” And when Gary said, “Middletown,” Bill and I laughed.…

From the moment that they walked into our booth at a couple of local wedding shows, we were hooked! Their engagement sessions–yes, two!–were laid back, relaxed and enjoyable, so we were pretty sure their wedding day would be the same; we were right.…
Some of the most artistic shots occur for us when we’re given three components: A) environmental cooperation i.e., location/weather, B) time and C) trust. With Jody and Steve we pretty much had the latter two from the get-go, but on their wedding day over Labor Day Weekend, that environmental cooperation thing (and yeah, I totally made that up…lol) was hit or miss.…
From the moment we met Ashton and Aaron, we knew. Pretty sure they did, too. We were a perfect fit! They not only gave us the opportunity to shoot our very first Chicago engagement session, but our first ceremony at Evelyn Chapel on the campus of Illinois Wesleyan University in Bloomington, IL, as well.…
Weddings get us excited! Brides and grooms excited about weddings get us even MORE excited!! Such is the case with Tanya & Brad. If there was any bride ready to be married to the love of her life, it was Tanya – from the get go, she was glowing!…
