Their underwear said "bridesmaid" HOW CUTE!?



Here is the slideshow!
I worked with Lillian of Emotia photography for this wedding in BEAUTIFUL Riviera Maya.
Lillian also is a makeup artist for Starlight Makeup Chicago.

We had beautiful weather, a FUNTASTIC (I think I just made up a word!?) bridal party, and one good-lookin couple in love....Enjoy :) Thanks for this opportunity Ray!

Need your help...

I don't post too many serious things on my little blog... but we are in need of your help!

My little brother's best friend, William, was just diagnosed with Leukemia at the age of 10.

We ask that you keep him in your prayers as he battles this disease.

He is the cutest, sweetest and most energetic little boy! I pray that he feels God's love during this time of need! Prayers really do work - so lets pray for him!

and to lighten the mood, a cute pic from a recent e-session.

I love my friends...

Coffee, mimosas, and girlfriends...






"Some days I'm 25, but most I am 12..." my friend referring to her plastic "grill." :)

Amanda & Alex

One of the COLDEST days of the year!!! But these 2 worked it out for me - thanks guys!!!

ALSO

This couple opted for a "first look." We did most of the portraits before the ceremony and it made the day flow perfectly!!

Enjoy :)

Dawn & Sean

high school sweet hearts :)

and a new favorite song of mine.... from the movie bride wars. Not the most realistic movie - but hey, I figured I need to see it cause weddings are my life :) AND I think Kate Hudson is one of the coolest people on earth.

Here are a few of my favs from the day...
