I am super excited to share the news that some of our photos of a wedding shower that was hosted at Tipsy Cake were featured on Brenda's Wedding Blog!
This was a truly beautiful wedding shower. Tipsy Cake did an amazing job preparing all the delicious treats and decorations while Pistil & Vine created truly amazing flower creations.
Check out those photos! The purple color theme really worked so well here from flowers and deserts to incredible purple chips:)

just wanted to share the slideshow a small wedding of Priscilla & Daniel I had a pleasure to photograph. The preparation and ceremony was in a chapel on Northwestern Campus in Evanston right by the Shakespeare Garden. After the ceremony we took few photos around Northwestern and then we drove downtown for few more photos. This is was a intimate wedding as Priscilla & Daniel will have their true wedding reception in Michigan where their families live.
Priscilla & Daniel describe themselves as classic/traditional - with a twist :) They LOVE the outdoors. They actually lived in Colorado...

So we just found out that our flight back to Chicago got cancelled and we won’t be flying back till tomorrow. We have a “wonderful” night to spent at the Las Vegas airport. I thought I would take the time to write a post about Sasha’s and mine experience at WPPI 2012. So let’s start from the beginning… For those of you that don’t know what WPPI is, it is the biggest wedding and portrait photography organization. It stands for Wedding and Portrait Professionals International. I have been a member of WPPI for over a year and this was the first WPPI conference that I attended. The event...

I just wanted to share some exciting news that I got few weeks ago that some of my photos got published in the WeddingWire blog. Those photos were taken in Vivo restaurant in Chicago. Vivo is one of my favorite place for Italian food. They also have "above vault" table that has been voted one of the most romantic places for dinner in Chicago. So if you thought of a nice place for a date dinner this is definitely the place:)

Few days ago I had a pleasure to photograph a very interesting Serbian wedding of Jelena and Nikola. This was my first Serbian wedding so it was fantastic to find out more about all the Serbian traditions. The first thing that was different from all the other weddings I photographed was the big pre-wedding party at Jelena's parents. It was practically a wedding reception before the actual wedding:) Ahh, and all the good food served non-stop. But before the pre-party began the bride's family tried to trick the groom and presented him another woman slightly disguised. Of course he realized it was not his wife-to-be...

Since winter months are obviously slower with weddings, I decided to organize a bridal boudoir session. I have done done boudoir sessions before but this one for my first bridal ones. I know, it's not a big difference but I wanted to make it look special. My very good friend Weronika who manages special events at the Sheraton hotels was super nice and got me a special deal on a suite in the Westin River North Hotel downtown Chicago. It's a really nice hotel and the views from the suite of the Chicago River, Marina City, and all other downtown building were spectacular.
For this photo session...
