April showers! In the midst of a steady rain, Bethany and John exchanged vows at the Funks Grove Chapel of the Templed Trees last weekend. It didn’t rain on their parade though! (And we found a way to stay out of the rain near our studio just south of downtown Bloomington.) Check out the highlights from their vintage-inspired wedding– including ceremony and reception music by Cody “Chicago Farmer” Diekhoff and Ed Anderson.

We wanted to take these pictures of Megan and Matt earlier this spring, but it was just too cold! We’re glad we waited though – we got a gorgeous sunny day last week. Looking forward to seeing these guys again for their wedding in October!

It’s spring! Flowers will be blooming soon – can’t wait! Here are the bridal and attendant bouquets we saw in 2012.

Check out the bridal shoes we saw in 2012 – flats, heels, toms, and lots of color!

The wedding cake was so much more than cake in 2012. We saw cakes, cupcakes, cake pops, pies, cookies and donuts!

Earlier this winter we took some promotional photos for the newly renovated Vrooman Mansion Carriage house. What an amazing space! Perfect for a place to get ready before a wedding (or stay on the wedding night!). At the end of the set are also a few pictures of the Carl Vrooman Suite in the mansion.

I took some promotional photos for local Bloomington blues band, Chicken Shack, recently. If you like to dance you should definitely check out where they’ll be playing next– until then, take a look at what a Chicken Shack show is like in the pictures below. And if you’re a local band or musician looking to update your promotional material– get in touch!

Our first wedding of 2013 brought us to Starved Rock State Park in Utica, IL for Shannon & Brad’s wedding day! Gorgeous colbalt blue added a pop of color to the winter landscape. Almost all of the details were handmade/DIY. We were lucky to get a relatively mild day (about 40 degrees) for outdoor photos around the park. Check out the peek into their day!

Our last wedding of 2012! Sarah and Jay got married at a gorgeous warehouse venue in the West Loop called Room 1520. We took a quick trip to the Riverwalk for some portraits before the ceremony and then a few in the street afterdark. Take a look at the peek into their day!

Nate and I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! And here’s a little sneak peek from a wedding we did earlier this month in Franklin, Indiana. Our time with Hayley and Jimwas short (just the ceremony and portraits), but we made the best of what little daylight we had. Check them out and have a wonderful holiday!
