Miranda + Rich {I Do}

When I was a kid my sister would get stuck babysitting me during summers. There's an age gap between us, so when she was in high school I was still the bratty little sister. Since she was in high school, one rule was wherever she went she had to take me with her. Needless to say I spent a lot of time with her friends.

I remember a particular time that I was "drug" (ok I actually felt really cool to be hanging out with the big kids) to one of her gatherings.
We went to the fair because the senior class was in charge of the fairstand. (Selling food to raise money) There was an afternoon that the carnival opened during the day. I begged my sister to let me ride the rides and she wouldn't go with me. :( Her friend Miranda saved the day and took me to the carnival.

It had been years since I'd seen Miranda. I was thrilled when she contacted me about shooting wedding portraits for her Illinois reception, following their Chicago ceremony. Both Miranda and Rich are very talented. Miranda works as a copywriter and Rich is an Emmy award winning editor. Hello super successful couple! A combination of the Ah-Mazing! weather, their easy going personalities, and the lack of stress since there was no ceremony, made for a fun afternoon.




Can you say stunning? :) LOVING the veil. In fact if I could go back in time and remarry Stephen I would get a veil identical to this one!!

My old stompin' grounds: Hello BoCo.


Mr. Gauch if you're reading this my appologies. I used a bus for a prop.





Rented from lensprotogo for the first time. This ring shot is done with a Nikon 105 mm/2.8 macro for all my photog buddies. Liked the company and will use them again!













I will always be thankful for Miranda riding the rock-o-plane with me at 9 years old. :)
