Kaushal + Lisa: Wrigley Engagement Session

Monday, October 31st, 2011

Kaushal and Lisa are good friends of mine, and needless to say, I knew this session was going to be super fun.  What I didn’t expect, was on our last shot of the night, to have something amazing happen!  We were shooting in front of the famous Wrigley Field sign, when a woman walked up saying she worked for the Cubs and if they wanted their names up on the board!  Talk about serendipitous!  The images we got from that fabulous few minutes were stunning, and needless to say, the memories will last a lifetime for them and I both.

Here is just a teaser from their session.

Ashok + Shital: Lifestyle Session

Tuesday, October 11th, 2011

I met Shital one day while shooting another clients’ engagement session a few months back.  She was walking her super cute puppy Rocky, so I decided to snap a few shots.  After she came over and we started talking, well.. the rest is history!  Shital and her awesome husband Ashok came out with me yesterday, and lets just say the weather could not have been better!  The fall leaves really were an amazing backdrop for this great couple.

Jomy + Julie: Desi Wedding

Thursday, October 6th, 2011

Last month I had the pleasure of working with Ken Sandhu of Ken Sandhu Photography on a unique but none the less fabulous Indian Catholic wedding.  Unique, because it took place in a gorgeous Indian Catholic Church.  The couple was SO much fun, Ken and I had a blast shooting them!

Ankit + Archita: Downtown Chicago E-Session

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011

Ankit and Archita braved the Chicago wind with me this past weekend for an engagement session along Chicago’s chilly lakefront.  Even though the sun was shining, we were all freezing!  No matter what though, we prevailed, and came out with some fantastic images!

One of the joys of being a wedding photographer: Connecting with old friends

Friday, August 19th, 2011

This post is dedicated to the friends I have re-connected with due to my job as a wedding photographer.  It is amazing, how after months, maybe years of not seeing or talking to somebody, they pick up the phone and give you a call inquiring to be their wedding photographer.  A friend, who I hadn’t seen in probably 6 years, contacted me, and now, we are discussing their wedding.  Same with another, except longer, maybe 10 years!

The beauty of this is that I have the opportunity to reconnect with these people, and become friends on a different level, at a point in both our lives when so much is happening.

The beauty of this business is in the small things.

Engagement Session: Shaun + Meredith

Monday, July 11th, 2011

I had the pleasure of having Shaun and Meredith come out for an engagement session last week here in Chicago.  Meredith flew in from Pasadena, where she works for the Tournament of Roses, and I could tell, these two really love the special time they get together.  We had a blast going to some fun spots, and completely enjoying the wonderful weather.  I look forward to seeing them in September!

Hong + Julie

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011

Hong and Julie Kim were married in the fabulous Rookery Building in the financial district of Chicago.  If you have not visited this building, it has a great (free!) tour that shows you all the architecture of this amazing Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece.  Hong and Julie were so wonderful to photograph.
