Emily+Alex // Engaged

I LOVE shooting in the winter, and although we had that weird rain/ice thing happening the night before our shoot, the snow held up just fine, and so did Emily and Alex. It was a fun afternoon of shooting. And by the end, we could still all feel our fingers. Thanks for braving the conditions and looking amazing while doing it, awesome job Emily and Alex!

Nila+Bryan // Engaged

When we started to plan this session, Nila brought up the idea of taking their engagment photos at their home. In all of my years of shooting, I have never done this. However, when I heard the idea, I instantly fell in love with the it! They have a beautiful home and they even treated me to a delicious breakfast. Nila & Bryan are such fun people to be around, I can’t wait for their wedding. Great job you two!

Had the pleasure of photographing this cute, always happy baby a bit ago. A great way to spend an afternoon!

Fall Rain

Just a quick shot from my Engagement session last Saturday night. We don’t get rain too often in the fall but the rain fell pretty hard for about 5 minutes. It was all we needed to get this shot….

Laura+Jonathon :: ENGAGED

It’s never too late to blog an engagement session right? I hope not, because we just shot this session last week and I am shooting their wedding tomorrow! Laura and Jonathon, were amazing to work with for their session. Throughout the session I was getting SO excited to shoot their wedding and before I knew it; it’s here! So, enjoy the preview of the amazing photos to come during their wedding!

Lisa+Nate {MARRIED}

I really can’t believe that I waited this long to blog this awesome wedding. Lisa and Nate were a lot of fun to work with. From the first time I met with them, I hoped they would book with me. Well, obviously they did, and their wedding was amazing. This wasn’t the insane snow storm that we had but it was pretty close. There was a ton of snow but it didn’t stop us from getting some great photos. As we head into what will hopefully be a beautiful Memorial Day weekend, seeing the winter snow will hopefully make us appreciate it a little more. Have a great and safe weekend!

Kelsey+Nate {engaged}

I’m just going to go ahead and say it; this was an absolutely amazing session! I think it lasted almost 4 hours but we just seemed to keep coming up with cool ideas. I think I really love the idea of starting in the evening and shooting into the dark. It just gives photos a whole different feel to them. I can’t wait for Kelsey and Nate’s wedding, were we are no doubt going to get some more amazing photos.

Adam+Laura :: WEDDING

Chris — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 02:28:34 +0000

Before I attempt to catch up on blogging some of my other work, I wanted to blog my latest winter wedding. Was it cold? Yes. Does it get dark early? Yes. Did the wedding party tough it out? Yes. These days, the snow and cold certainly isn’t exclusive to the midwest, but I love shooting winter weddings. They aren’t as common, but thats what makes them unique.

Mike + Glenna :: PROPOSAL

Chris — Fri, 24 Dec 2010 18:36:44 +0000

Merry Christmas everyone!

The game has officially been stepped up thanks to Mike Stone.

Last night I had the absolute honor of capturing two people beginning the next chapter of their lives together. Over the last month or so, Mike and I have been coordinating (mostly Mike) how exactly this was going to happen. They went to dinner at the St. Paul Hotel while I was over at the skating rink in Rice Park getting things ready. I got the 5 minute warning via text message from Mike to let me know they were coming. So I rolled out the red carpet, literally, and put the ring out at the end of it and tried to be as inconspicuous as possible. They stepped out on the ice and Glenna knew right away what was going on. It was so much fun and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. This was the perfect way to begin the holiday season.

Model :: Lisa

Here are a few more shots from the second shoot I had with the very talented hair stylist Linsdey Bennett. Stay tuned, as their was one more model from this shoot that will be featured, however, the next post this week will most likely be wedding related : )
