Wow…what a story to tell between these two! They endured a significant event before taking their vows that most will thankfully never experience in their marriage. Just a few months before their wedding Kit was diagnosed with a brain tumor. After thirteen hours of brain surgery and six weeks of chemo/radiation, he met his bride at the alter. There weren’t too many dry eyes this day. You could tell they were just so thankful to have made it to their wedding day. And…they are so in love. Nate loved photographing them.

Their reception followed at Cafe Brauer in Chicago…one of the most fabulous locations for a wedding in the city. Tatiana from Mila Design did a wonderful job adorning the Great Hall with elegant floral designs. And, there is nothing like live music from Larry King Orchestra to keep a party going.

We will never forget Rachel and Kit. They were great to work with. Congratulations!

‘Tis the season for not only weddings (we have four to post) but senior images as well. Historically, we have shot very few seniors. However, we have had several requests this year and are actually having quite a bit of fun.

Tyler is a quiet kid but deadly on the wrestling mat. We see him often in the newspaper during wrestling season as he wrestles his way to the state championships. He and Nate found some obscure spots around Zionsville for a shoot that was mainly in the rain. Tyler is blessed with great hair…and a lot of it. Enjoy!

Jacob is an incredibly gifted musician and plans to pursue his musical interests in college, and thereafter. One of his key criteria in picking the right university is the music program. He not only plays the piano brilliantly but the guitar and saxophone (though reluctantly). He is a funny kid and we totally enjoyed hanging out with him. His humor is dry and his voice has little inflection…not much rattles his cage. He happens to live in my neighborhood and there isn’t a young boy that doesn’t look up to him. It just so happens that while on this photo shoot we landed him a job at Plum’s Upper Room. You can now see him playing on weekend evenings. Enjoy!

What a nice guy! We enjoyed shooting David’s senior images. And, once again we were amazed at what a beautiful town Zionsville can be. David is a huge Diamondbacks fan, as well as a good musician. He has a quiet side to him but portrays deep intelligence. He was a bit unsure of the camera at first but by the end of the shoot was doing great. I loved how at one particular point he said, “I better start smiling more…my mom will want pictures of me smiling!” What a good boy! His mom will be proud and hopefully will love how these images captured his personality at this point in his young life.

A shout out to those celebrating their anniversaries this week. We have fond memories of each wedding and wish you the very best.
