Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
My blogging is a bit behind! I still have two sessions from Illinois to blog! Sara (and Kati) have been patiently waiting for this blog, its a long time coming!
Sara is an amazing wedding coordinator out of Peoria Illinois! She also happens to be my sorority sister and friend! She married her college sweetheart a few years ago but wanted to get back in the dress for some awesome post-wedding shots!
This is one of the first shots I took and also one of my top 3 favorites! The girl is a natural!
And she was willing to do anything! Sit on this dirty nasty stained couch we found? Okay!
Okay I admit it…I miss Peoria…a little
Fav <3
One thing Peoria is known for? Caterpillar Headquarters (there’s some fun trivia for you!)
Her Fab assistant Kati was there the whole shoot and even made this veil for her! Love it!
And of course, a standard headshot for her business!
Sara, it was so great to see you again! Thanks for letting me shoot you and being such a trooper! Love ya!
xoxo, M
