Kristina & Kevin are Married! - Chicagoland Wedding Photographer

Kristina & Kevin had an amazing wedding. The day started with a little rain (okay it was a downpour), but the weather cleared up long enough to take a lot of fun pictures outside as the cocktail hour got started. The ceremony was at a gorgeous Croatian Catholic Church - St. Jerome and the reception was at Silver Lake Country Club. The entire wedding party was so much fun to photograph all day. Everyone had such a great time, especially me!

Kauai, Hawaii

We had a beautiful trip to Kauai a few months ago, a pre-honeymoon for us. We knew I would never have time to get away in the summer after the wedding, so we decided to take a pre-honeymoon. That's just how we roll.... It was an awesome trip and an worked out great. We were completely able to enjoy planning the trip without all the wedding stress getting in the way and fell in love with the island when we were there. Here's a few images I thought I would share.

The sunrises were stunning. Thanks to the time difference we were up every morning to walk down the beach and enjoy the sunrises (and our coffee :-)

The view off our balcony was fabulous. Palm trees in the wind, ocean waves crashing - we LOVED our hotel and highly recommend Koa Kea to anyone staying on the island.
How I got talked into this I have no idea. Adrenaline junkie I am NOT. This picture is definitely of J, my hands were gripping the instructors seat in front of me the entire time, not casually steering the wings of death (or birds of paradise as they are more widely known).
But, I survived...

Everything was postcard perfect there!
J has definitely perfected the arm out to take pictures of us





Kristin and Tom are Married! - Chicagoland Wedding Photographer

Yes, I am extremely behind on updating all the fun stuff I've been working on. So I will have lots a new stuff to post in the coming weeks.

Over Memorial Day weekend (yes, back that far), Kristin and Tom had a beautiful wedding day and I was honored to photograph their extremely special day. And a special thanks to Robyn Martin for taking lots of great shots throughout the day as my second photographer.

Congrats to Kristin and Tom!
