amy + samir – married june 20th, 2009

06.25.2009 – 11:53 am

you know i love ethnic weddings, and even though amy & samir’s wedding wasn’t ethnic, with samir’s family being from india, they still wanted to put include some of the indian traditions. if there’s one thing i love about indian weddings its all of the AMAZING COLORS! amy and samir did just that with the colored shawls that the bridesmaids wore. beautiful!!

so in less than a month’s time, this was my second wedding at calhoun beach club, but this time we really had fabulous weather for the wedding which was held on the terrace overlooking lake calhoun. before the ceremony itself we took a short drive over to lake harriet as well for some fun shots of them and the wedding party too.

this wedding was also particularly fun because i actually went to college with amy’s older sister, so it was neat to see her again and also see some old friends from college too!

i consider myself to be a pretty lucky person sometimes. part of that is because of how close i am to my friends. i actually have a close-knit group of 7 friends that goes back to junior high. one of them is my friend john whom i met in 7th grade history class, 1st hour, in my first year of junior high.

boy how time flies! john’s now married like most of my friends and not too long ago he and his wife had their first child, nathan. they currently live in maine, but we’re doing our best to get them to move back closer to home. but they were in town this week so we had a chance to do a little family photo shoot for them this week.

what a cutey!

sara + william – married june 6th, 2009

06.11.2009 – 10:20 am

just the day after kate & jon’s wedding (which was a very lovely day outside), i photographed sara & william’s wedding at calhoun beach club by lake calhoun, but this time the weather was not so nice. in fact it rained the whole day, but luckily we were planning on staying indoors the whole time. sara & william’s wedding was put together by the fabulous gals at mimi design. i’ve been working with amy and amy there for years and they always do top notch weddings!
