It’s Monday AND it’s moving day (if this is new to you – we are relocating back to San Francisco with a pit stop in St. Louis for the month of July). This post was hard for me to put together. So many options…I had a folder made of great photos of friends, but the more I looked at them the harder it was to not be sad. Chicago you’ve been good to us. The winters were hard (really hard) but the old and new friends you brought us were beyond excellent. Sure I’ll have memories of the landmarks but the good times were with the people we love as family – they will be more than missed. So while we drive away, I’m going to keep this short and sweet with a quote from my favorite childhood author.
“Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.” – Dr. Seuss.

Wow, time flies! Seems like yesterday, I was at the Lincoln Park Zoo & Animal Farm with Amy and Luke for their engagement session! It was my pleasure to be part of such a delightful day of special moments. Thanks to Angie for being my right-hand photo woman! Did I mention they planned this wedding from Boston?! Lots of giggles, peonies, tears, pink and LOVE! Lots of images to look through, let us get started! (more…)

My friend, Lisa (owner of Hello Designers), posted this interesting article on her blog! Since we’ve tapped into the product photography field a bit the last week or so…this would be a good read for you! Check it out here.

Seems funny to say that this is a new trend, but I truly feel that brides are finally letting go of the “I have to grow my hair out for the wedding day” idea! Yay! I think we’ll see this trend sparkle in 2010 – mainly because brides are coming into their own style and money isn’t flowing as it used to. So rock what you feel most comfortable in whether it’s long or short! Check out more here & runway updo trends for 2010.

Happy Monday everyone! Hope your weekend went well. I was super excited when Vana contacted me about some product photography tips last week. Her design work is amazing! Silhouettes have been a wedding and design trend for the past couple years and still going strong! She also does custom silhouettes (couples & families) and sells cufflinks, invitations, paper goodies, lockets, etc! Check out her link above and etsy shop, you’ll love it!
The lovable goof that is my Dad. This is why I love you :) Don’t forget to wish your pops a Happy Father’s Day this weekend!
