I had a blast in Los Angeles shooting Adam and Kristine's engagement session and was really looking forward to the wedding.
When the day started, I was greeted by this guy... |


| Some getting ready shots... |


| The dogs were great! This dog has a job too.... He chases geese off golf courses. Crazy! |


| He also likes table scraps! |


| And their first meeting was in her parents front yard. Kristine also grew up in this house so it was perfect! |



| And her sister was ready to attack the veil. It was a bit too long so they did some crafty tailoring! |




| And a note from the groom... |




| And then the pictures begin! |







| I had to get this shot before we headed inside to check out the reception site... |


| The guys were getting ready... |




| And then we headed out for more pics! |






| And then we headed inside for the Ketubah signing... |














| The first dance. I love the little dancing fairies on Adam's jacket. |




| Attacking the 'AWESOME' cake. |



| Kristine's mother helped in collecting several blue and white vases for the reception. |


| Her sister gives a speech. |


| And Adam's brother does too. This was his impersonation of his brother! |


| Thanks to Lisa for this crazy crowd shot!! |












| This guy was not playing around on the dance floor! |







| The dancing was insane! They were dancing so hard they fell down... Crazy! |





| Thanks for a fun night and a CRAZY reception! It was a blast. |


We started the day at Lauren's grandmothers house. The day started off a little rainy but it ended up being a perfect day!
|


| Her father wanted a 'tie check'. |



| Gabe's mother and friend... |


| Her grandma got caught fixing her hair! |


| This guy was waiting on the couple so that we could start photos... |




| This guy was part of their first meeting! |


| I love the kitchiness of the first meeting! |


| Gabe cleaning off some lipstick... |




| Their friend from Brooklyn had to get it on film too! |


| All of the helping hands! Had to make sure that the dress did not get dirty. Not sure what is going on with the other hand on Gabe! |


| Her grandmothers attic was amazing! |


| The car that they rented was pretty amazing too! |






| The wedding party joined us... |



| A quick drink before we take more pics... |



| The sun came out and Gabe got really excited... |


| and then he handed me a brick. I am still not really sure why?? |




| Are you kidding me!!?? I loved it. |



| We stopped at a bookstore that Lauren worked at on campus for a few shots... |



| Gabe gets attacked after picking on Lauren... |




| Bond Chapel still amazes me every time that I shoot there! Eddie got this great shot of Lauren and her father... |




| Some great light from the stained glass windows! |



| She just could not contain the tears! |




| It was not raining but Lauren and Gabe had to wear poncho's for what was about to happen... |


| Yes, we CLIMBED to the top of this chapel... |




| And we stopped for a few shots. It was really dirty on the way up the winding staircase. They were told to cover up so that the dress and suit would stay clean. |


| This was at the very top. I am scared of heights!!! Anything for the shot, right? |


| And the frightening staircase. |


| I love Gabes 'we did it' shot! |


| Then we headed over to Woodlawn Tap in Hyde Park. |


| Gabe had to show off Lauren's shoe choice. |


| And then we headed back to the Newberry... |


| The food was waiting for them as soon as they arrived. |







| And the dancing begins... |





| Thanks for having me! Good times!!! |


| We went crazy with the photos! The weather was perfect and we had a blast. Amy and David...thanks for running all over the place and and making some really cool images with me. Hope you had fun! |


| Our first stop was the place that David asked her to marry him... |



| I had to show off the cool shoes... |
















| The Kinzie bridge is still one of my favorites! |




| We headed near David's work to stop at 'What's The Beef'. The patio was great! |




| A quick shot in front of their place... |


| and then we grabbed their bikes for some fun shots! |




| And then we popped back out on the beach for some last minute shots... |




| Thanks for spending your day with me! See you in a few weeks at the wedding. |


The weather was perfect today and Kauri was great to work with! Thanks to Sonia and Amy for makeup and hair.
Sonia's new puppy makes a special guest appearance. |



| Sonia's puppy (Mr. No Name) had to sneak in a shot. How commercial is this? Come on... HA! |









| And Mr. No Name was exhasuted from posing HARD for hours and hours.... |



| Thanks to Sonia for the makeup and Alice for the hair! |










| Sonia and Jen...after a day in the rain! |
