oh my goodness. so who would have thought with all our gooooorgeous april weather that may would be so flipping cold?! when we got down to ottawa, illinois (not to be confused with ottawa, canada) for alicia&curt’s wedding, the sky was a foreboding shade of gray and the temperature was hovering just around 50 degrees. fortunately the rain held out and alicia and curt and their bridal party braved the cold to get some awesome stuff.

alicia and curt decided to do a first look before their ceremony which we cannot recommend enough! we had a full hour and a half to walk around downtown ottawa and take photos. and it turned out wonderfully. we can’t say enough about how much fun this bridal party was. they were up for anything and really just went with the flow. really - it’s our kind of crowd! ;)

to alicia&curt - you guys were a blast to hang out with! you make a gorgeous couple and we wish you a lifetime of happiness.

sae&jason got married on a very chilly day in january. i’ve heard tell that these chicago winters can be brutal, but holy frostbite batman! i should probably invest in decent snow boots, eh?

despite the freezing temperature, sae&jason and all their guests partied hard all night at the astoria banquets. i have never seen a dance floor get so crowded! this was our second wedding in this group of friends, and they are so much fun. everyone just let loose and had a blast!

to sae&jason - you are such a beautiful couple and surrounded by so much love. we wish you all the best in your future!! :D

don’t forget the slideshow!

my little cousin is married!! in december, we took a trip to delaware to go to the wedding and visit family. of course, we could have never predicted the craziness that was about to ensue. by the time that saturday rolled around, the east coast had been slammed with one of the worst snowstorms the state has seen. personally, i blame the whole thing on tony. obviously the snow followed him from chicago. :P it didn’t want him to forget about it.

needless to say, the show went on, and there were some fun photos to be had! many thanks to whitney&josh for playing in the snow with us! :D


real friends stand in 20″ of snow in strapless dresses.

first of all - HAPPY NEW YEAR! i’m still not ready for it to be 2010, but i was told quite bluntly that i cannot control time, no matter how hard i try. i still don’t think that’s fair, but whatever. ANYWAY -

i really love it when our clients are up for something totally different. when you live in the land of ice and snow, sometimes you gotta work with what you’ve got. and what we had was snow. LOTS of it. i’m sure when we first suggested a snowy engagement session to sae&jason they thought we were off our rockers. (and we are, but that’s besides the point, haha.) the point is, i’m SO GLAD they were up for it.

there’s something completely magical about a city that’s totally white. even though it was -58° out (ok, that might be an exaggeration), these two were all cuddles and smiles. to that i say - rock on sae&jason! you guys were awesome, and we think it was totally worth it. :D we can’t wait for your wedding!
