Italia!

Holy cow it has been awhile since my last blog post! May and June have been filled with photo shoots, moving and trips to Italy! I speant ten days in Italy with three girlfriends, and we had the most AMAZING time. If you haven't been to Italy I would highly reccomend going. We rented a car, which provided us with some pretty funny stories, and went wherever our hearts desired. Tuscany was by far my favorite place. Here are a few pictures from the trip and I will post more soon. If you can't tell I was a little bit obsessed with food, especially the gelato...yum!

Wedding - Greg & Tracey

Greg and Tracey were married on May 8th in Chicago, and it was a beautiful day that I'm so glad and honored to have been a part of.  I have known Greg and his family for many many years, and I have enjoyed getting to know Tracey over the last two years.  They are a beautiful couple inside and out, and their love for each other and their family and friends radiated from them all day long.  My good friend Erin with The Locket came down to Chicago and shot with me.  I love when Erin and I are able to shoot together, and hopefully we'll get opportunities to do more weddings together.  Click here to see Erin's photos from the wedding day and from the Crazy Booth!!  Thank you Greg and Tracey for letting Erin and I capture your wedding day! 

Tracey was an absolutely stunning bride!

On the way to the reception Tracey and Greg stopped to surprise Tracey's grandmother who couldn't attend the ceremony.  It was such a touching moment and Tracey's grandma was so surprised!  This is one of my favorite pictures from that day.

  

Tracey and Greg are one of the most laid back fun loving couples I know.  Tracey was so giggly while Erin and I were taking pictures of her and Greg, it was so cute!

Have a wonderful week!

Tara

This photo shoot with Tara was so much fun! My long time friend and fellow photographer Erin and I took Tara all over Iowa City.  It had been a long winter, and Erin and I were itching to get outside and shoot.  Tara was the perfect subject.  She was willing to do whatever we asked...including standing out in the middle of a muddy corn field in the rain.  Here are some of the shots I got, and there are many more to come!  Thanks Tara for being such a great subject, you are a photographers dream!

Tara totally worked it for the camera!
