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:)

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.

Last year I had a pleasure to photograph a wedding of Georgene and Neil. Georgene and Neil live in California but the beautiful bride was from Chicago.

Last year I decided to upgrade my printer and got a new Epson Stylus Photo R2880. It's an amazing printer that can print up to 13 inches wide prints. The photo below is 13x19 but this printer can handle roll of paper 13 inches wide so long panoramas are not a problem at all. My previous printer was Epson Stylus 2200 and this upgrade was definitely worth the money. Epson went a long way improving their...

What can I say I love January because mid-month is my birthday:) This year I decided to go a little bit crazy and ordered my own birthday cake. Few months ago I photographed an amazing cake at 2239 South Michigan Lounge. The cake was in the shape of a Martini Glass with the birthday girl sitting in it. Here is a photo of that cake. I was so impressed with the creation of Tipsy Cake that this year I decided to be a little bit more creative with my birthday and ordered a cake in the shape of my camera.
When I called Tipsy Cake I quickly realized how serious they were about their cakes. When they...
