What a beautiful day for a wedding and such a wonderful couple. Joe and Stacey had one thing on their mind when planning this wedding and that was to CELEBRATE! This was one of the weddings where the dance floor was packed the whole night. Joe and Stacey had one of the best wedding bands around Indigo from out of Chicago. Beth Maxwell from Save the Date designed another extra-ordinary event. Scott from Sound and Light Creations created the mood with lighting. Bob Moniers arranged the beautiful flowers.
The bride and groom wanted the guest to have so much fun and I can tell you they did. The party finally concluded around 3:00 am.
Jeff/Julia...you guys did an amazing job and it was such a pleasure to work with such talented, poised and down to earth people. All the best to you and your family!
(06.05.09 @ 01:43 PM)I can't stop looking at them! Such an amazing day captured perfectly.
(06.05.09 @ 03:30 PM)Jeff+Julia.... HOLY BEAUTIFUL IMAGES BATMAN!!!!!!! Seriously, a work of art. Those first two shots with the veil... ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Gorgeous!!!!!!! And to Ryan, you were one HOT TAMALE groom who married one STUNNING bride. Oh, and do I spy me a Carlos Hernandez???? ;)
(06.06.09 @ 12:47 AM)Great set guys! These are really classy! Congrats on being chosen as one of Westcott's top endorsed pro's as well!! It is cool to be able share that list with you two. :)
(06.09.09 @ 01:58 PM)Ryan and Hayley-you two are so perfect for each other and in every single picture you can see the love between you two! I love you both so much and these pictures are absolutely amazing!
(06.09.09 @ 02:08 PM)Great images as always. I love your college of images. I especially love the top two images!!
(06.26.09 @ 07:53 AM)Ryan and Anna celebrated their wedding at Hidden Lake Winery in Southern Illinois. Its always a honor when a fellow photographer asked you to photograph something as special as their wedding. It was a day filled with so much emotion with families and friends. To see the bride crying on her dads shoulder says it all to me. Julia and I are blessed to be the parents of 4 children three of which are little girls. I know my day will come when I will have to walk them down that aisle ( I am not looking forward to that day). This is what weddings are all about to capture that emotion in the relationships.
I think Anna is in good hands with Ryan. Ryan and Anna have been high school sweethearts since their sophomore year of high school. We wish them all the best in their life together. If you have a chance check out the guys from Switzer Films they put together a pretty slick same day edit video of the day. It was a pleasure to work with them. We all really worked well together and it was so much fun. If you would like to see some more images of Ryan and Anna check out their Showcase. Click below.
All I have to say is AMAZING!!!
