gretchen and chad {wedding day}

posted under weddings

I second shot with Connie (thanks, Connie) again — this time it’s for Chad and Gretchen’s wedding in Rush City. The weather was nice and breezy, and it was a beautiful wedding. The groom and the groomsmen are motorcycle enthusiasts and they decided to pose with their cool rides. What an awesome idea!



Gretchen and her bridesmaids are so gorgeous, they are a pleasure to work with! Oh, this may sound weird, but I also found out that overcast skies make great photos. : )


The ceremony was held at the First Lutheran Church, a cozy church.

Congratulations, Chad and Gretchen!


warmly,

rod’s 65th birthday bash

posted under others

I had the opportunity to photograph a fabulous birthday party last weekend. It was Rod’s 65th birthday party — and can I say, what a great party!! It was well organized, and filled with beautiful people, delicious food, great music, and lots of laughter and fun!

Everybody had fun on the dance floor, some smooth dancers here. A Marilyn Monroe impersonator was hired to add pizazz to the party.

I had a great time. Thank you so much for having me for the great party!

Calista - Nice one!

Mmm.. that guy looks a bit like Tun Mahathir though..

Sarah - Hi Ai,

We loved having you last night. I hope you got home safely. I am so excited to see your photograph’s! Will you let me know if you get a chance to upload the photo’s to your website or any other website? Also, if I need any retouching or photoshop help, would you be willing to do some of that?

It was so nice to have you at the party and not have to worry about taking pictures! I am always the one stuck with that job (you can only imagine there are 5-6 family photo’s that I am actually in!). One last thing…who would here a 70 year old Marilyn Monroe who doesn’t even sing? What a hag. When Marilyn needs bi-focals to read, its time to shut it down!!!

When we first met, Savannah, a beautiful 8 year old with the sweetest smile, was a little shy.
But she quickly warmed up and we had an amazing session.

“Who is your favorite singer?” I asked.
“Bow-wow.” She answered with a smile.

“Could you please toss the umbrella up and strike a pose?” I said.
And she did.
And she giggled.

It was such a fun session, and I have to say, this is how a photoshoot should be: fun, energetic and fun.
Did I say fun twice? : )

warmly,
