Monique & Emmanuel {Wedding}

Monique and Emmanuel were married on August 18, 2012 at St. Mary's Parish in West Chicago, Illinois.  We shared their whole day with them and their family was so warm and welcoming that we felt like part of them.  We were thrilled to help capture the memories of their special day!

Thanks for having us, M & E!  Your day was wonderful and we're so grateful to have shared it with you!! ♥

The C. Family {Portraits}

Busy, busy day!!  After Monique and Emmanuel's engagement session, we headed out to Cantigny Park in Wheaton, IL for a family session.  I learned a very valuable lesson today -- some kids will sit and smile at the camera, and some....won't.  And that's OK!!  Not every shoot has to go the same way!  While we weren't able to get the posed portraits we were hoping for, we still captured the fun and silliness of this high-energy family.  And let's face it, posed or running at top speed, these are still some of the cutest kiddos around :-)
