Chicago Wedding! (Twin Cities-Chicago Wedding Photographer)

So, I LOVE to stay busy.  Although, I have three kids and a hubby who works a lot as a super talented Chef - I NEED more lol.  I hate to admit, but I get bored... easily.  I need to keep a full schedule and adore all types of photography.  Some other photographers only do engagement and weddings or just newborns and small children or just seniors.  Well, I just have not found one I do not like. :)  I really like going from a newborn session to an engagement session and just every session rejuvenates me!

For example, this weekend...  I traveled to Chicago for a wedding on Thursday, photographed a wedding for 9.5 hours and then left the next morning to get back to the Twin Cities (with my super talented BFF assistant - we had so much fun!!).  Not too big of a deal, right???  Wrong.  I came back to pack up the rest of our house on Saturday evening, had three photo sessions on Sunday morning and unpacked until 1am that evening.  Then had a newborn session this Monday morning.  I am exhausted, but just love it!  And I had the most wonderful newborn session with a beautiful little 3 week old girl!

I wouldn't change a thing in the world right now.  We moved from a smaller duplex to a beautiful farm house with old barns, old stone smoker and raspberry patch in the back.  The girls have acres to play on and a huge basement to roller skate and scooter on during the winter months.  We are happier than ever before :)  We have amazing friends that helped us move and even my father who had bronchitis helped us move (#bestparentsintheworld) and my wonderful (and super patient mother watched the crazy beautiful girlies).  Not sure what we would do without any of you!

I just want to share a few photos from my Chicago wedding because they are just the most amazing couple and also the bride is a friend from when I was teeny tiny.  I had a hard time holding in the tears because I just can't believe I was able to be at the wedding, let alone photograph her big day!  One of the most rewarding photoshoots I have ever been involved with!

Thanks Kate and Jay for the memories and I forsee a very long and happy future for you both!  Love you!
