Jackie + Geoff | Married!

It is not everyday that we get to photograph two amazing people, their wonderful dog Mabel and their lovely friends and family in a remote Illinois town. The desolate country roads, the huge silos and the endless corn fields made Bloomington Illinois a wedding photographers paradise. Jackie looked drop-dead gorgeous and is the perfect no nonsense bride. She was running and laughing with Geoff while I was climbing through the corn fields trying to get that perfect shot. Typically, I include photos of the entire day, the preparations through the reception but these portraits are just to fabulous not to share and I would have the longest blog post in history if I included everything that I wanted too.

Thank you to Jackie and Geoff for inviting me into your lives, always bringing Mabel to the studio and for letting us document your very special wedding day. Congrats to you both- Enjoy Greece!

XOXOX- Laura

Stella & Chewy | The Celebrity Dogs

I had the great honor of photographing Stella and Chewy and the fabulous woman, Marie Moody who founded the dog food company, Stella & Chewy's outside their home in Muskego Wisconsin! Stella and Chewy are not young pups but are both in their early teens, you would have no idea watching these two interact with their family while romping at the park. I think it may have something to do with food!

Stella & Chewy's is a safe, raw all natural pre-packaged dog food made from farm-raised chickens and cows with no grain, no added antibiotics, no artificial preservatives, sugar, salt or coloring. Stella & Chewy's is sold in 30 U.S. states and can be found at most pet boutiques in the Chicago-land area. Check it Out! Your dogs will love it, I promise!

Maggie + Ciaran: The Vintage Engagement

Maggie and Ciaran's engagement portraits were taken on the southside of Chicago at the Museum of Science Industry, the only building left standing from the 1893 Chicago's World Fair. This seemed to be the perfect backdrop for their vintage inspired engagement session!
