Filed Under (Engagement) by Robert on December 14, 2007

Josh & Jodi are a terrific couple that look great together! They’re getting married next spring and had their engagement session this fall. Here are some highlights that I really liked.

Anthony & Katie’s Wedding

Filed Under (Wedding) by Robert on December 13, 2007

I’ve really fallen behind with my blogging with all the end of year craziness. Hopefully I will be all caught up by this weekend.

Here are some of my favorite images from Anthony and Katies’s wedding. Many of these were at Naperville’s Riverwalk which has some spectacular backgrounds in the fall timeframe.

Pete & Darlene’s Wedding

Filed Under (Wedding) by Robert on October 16, 2007

Mike who is a good friend of mine and has his own photography studio asked me if I would photograph his brother Pete’s wedding as he would be part of the wedding party. Pete and Darlene really liked my work and we really hit it off when we met. These two were so into each other I coudn’t help but get great photos. They had their wedding at Montefiori in Lemont which has beautiful, lush landscape complete with waterfalls. Here are a few images.

Quang & Rachel’s Wedding

Filed Under (Wedding) by Robert on October 7, 2007

One of the many wonderful things about doing this work is all the great people you get to meet. I met Quang & Rachel through another couple I photographed earlier in the year. Their wedding was top-notch and filled with extraordinary details. The reception was at Esplanade Lakes by Doubletree which has very unique architecture making for some really cool photographs. Here are just a few of my favorites from the day.

Wes & Katie Wedding

Wes & Katie had their ceremony at the beautiful Village Presbyterian Church in Northbrook. Katie looked absolutely stunning. The festivities were held at the North Shore Country Club that was spectacular inside and out. Wes & Katie congratulations and may you have wonderful life together!

Deepak & Tinaz Wedding

Filed Under (Wedding) by Robert on September 9, 2007

Deepak & Tinaz had the most incredible wedding ceremony and celebration at the Chicago Marriott O’Hare. Deepak arrived to the ceremony by horse with family and guests dancing. The ceremonies were both traditional Indian Zarastrian and Hindu. Here are just a very few of my favorites images.

Tom & Carolyn Wedding

Tom & Carolyn had a beautiful lakefront ceremony. Afterwords we went by the Adler Planetarium to get some awesome images. The dinner celebration was held at Smith & Wollensky in Chicago. Here are some highlights.

Jarred & Jenn Engagement

Filed Under (Engagement) by Robert on August 20, 2007

Jarred & Jenn had their engagement session in downtown Chicago around Museum Campus and the Buckingham Fountain. They’re a wonderful, easy going couple that were a pleasure to photograph. Here are just a few of my favorites.

Deepak & Tinaz Engagement

Filed Under (Engagement) by Robert on August 3, 2007

I photographed Deepak and Tinaz’s engagement session on a beautiful Chicago evening. The cloud cover made for some really dramatic lakefront images. We had a great time strolling around just having fun shooting relaxed images that I think really show their feelings for each other. They have an incredible wedding planned that I’m really looking forward to.
