we met dawn + david downtown for the first part of their e-session. they’re a great looking couple. dawn had the cutest dress that completed the elegant feel of their pictures.


after walking around a while, we ended up at the waterhouse, where their wedding will be this october. the ivy along the sidewalk was awesome.

dawn was an art history major in school, so she was super-excited to have pictures with this massive mural.

next we headed out to my grandparent’s farm for a different feel. the lighting was gorgeous.

hand-in-hand.

i love this moment.

this one, too.

can’t wait for october!

actually it’s more like “melissa + tyler: eros in philly,” but tyler is big fan of alliteration so i changed the title for him. (tyler gave the groomsman a c.s. lewis collection from which those love terms come. phileo is brotherly love; eros is being in love.)
hiding unsuccessfully behind those locked lips is the glen foerd.

melissa couldn’t have looked prettier.

tyler couldn’t have been happier.

the rose gardens couldn’t have been… rosier.

glen foerd was as impressive on the inside as it was on the outside.

floor to ceiling windows everywhere…


and libraries and art galleries.

many more meaningful images of our mischievous models may meander onto your monitors monday.

here are a few quick snaps from the rehearsal dinner party before melissa and tyler’s wedding.


look! the liberty bell!

da dum da dum. da dum da dum. (hum that to the “here comes the bride” tune while you look at this next picture to get the full effect.)

a couple goodnight kisses before the big day.


wedding pics to come soon.

you met our brown-loving accountant and architect yesterday for downtown peoria.
we went out to the golf course for a second location.

you wouldn’t want to hit a golf ball where they were sitting, but taking a camera there isn’t a bad idea.

the 14th tee.

shadows…

and smiles.

i’ve played golf with kalman quite a few times (including the first time he broke par.) lauri’s brother beat me in the tri-county junior finals when i was 13.

lauri & kalman (i couldn’t help it.)

you guys are an awesome couple that are going to be even better in marriage.
