Melanie & Mike's E-Session

I recently spent a very fun weekend in Galena, Illinois where I met up with Melanie and Mike for their engagement session. I'm photographing M & M's (I just made that up) wedding this September in Wisconsin and they were originally going to travel to Chicago for their engagement session. When we were checking our schedules to pick a date I mentioned I was headed to Galena in May and we all agreed it'd be fun to do a "destination" session there. You gotta love a couple who is up for anything to get some great photos...

Night Shoot in the City

Last Thursday near sunset I got together with a group of fellow wedding photographers for a fun practice shoot around the West Loop. We had a few brave volunteer models and lots of different lighting equipment to play around with. Here are a few images I created:























Ray Pryor of Emotia Photo shot video of our adventures with the new Canon 5D Mark II and made this great video:

Irene & Eric's E-Session

Friday was the perfect spring day and I got to spend it outside photographing Irene and Eric's engagement session in and around the Lincoln Park Zoo. Irene and Eric were so relaxed and fun they made it easy to get some great shots. Here are a few of my favorites:

















Looking forward to their big, fat Greek wedding on the fourth of July!
