Vintage Scout Interiors…

Happy Tuesday!  Since joining Facebook a while back, it has been a huge benefit to my business, but on a personal note, I have really enjoyed reconnecting with some of my dear friends.  

One of those friends is a very talented designer here in the Midwest.  After reconnecting, we learned that her sister lives about 10 minutes from me, here in Chicago.  I was so excited and couldn’t wait to get together when she was in town visiting her family.  Little did I know that one of her favorite designs was done here in Chicago and she would ask me to capture it to be published in the near future.  Yippee…it was so much fun and so gorgeous.  

So here is a sample of, my dear friend, Debbie’s talent.  If you enjoy creative design feel free to follow her at http://www.vintagescout.com

I don’t often get to shoot beautiful interiors, and really had a blast!  ENJOY!!!

Mr. .&. Mrs. Gilliam…

Rebekah and Bradford had the most amazing wedding Saturday night.  I have been marking the days off on my calendar for months until their big day, and boy it didn’t disappoint.  

When Rebekah originally mentioned that it was going to be held under an oak tree at a friend’s home, I initially thought that I better get some good props going, but she failed to mention that it was an expansive and gorgeous piece of property and that it was going to be a perfect, August afternoon, southern wedding.  Oh and did I fail to mention that they are the most fun loving couple that I have ever met? 

Here is a small list of words to describe their day: 

Southern, sunshine, lovin, worship, laughter, tears, family, friends, antique car, patchwork quilt, bare feet, braids, linen, wild flowers, candle light, oak tree, open field, praise band, Lord’s Supper, dancing…you get the idea.  The list could go on and on. 

Because I am a better picture taker than a writer, here is an image that sums up their sweet union.  Make no mistake that the two have now become one, but there is a third person present and responsible for this union.  His presence was felt Saturday night and will be visible to all that see this couple together.  

Congratulations to you both.  I love you, and hope you are enjoying your time together on your honeymoon. 

ENJOY!!!

Katelyn…

Awww…there is nothing like a senior session with a young lady that looks like an angel and LOVES fashion.  Meet Katelyn…she truly made it super easy to see beauty in everything around me.  I love that I got to share in her senior experience, and look forward to hearing all about her future.

ENJOY!!!

Mr. .&. Mrs. McDonald…

Happy Thursday!!!  

Last Saturday was a day that I had been looking forward to for a very long time.  Jeremy and Cassie are such a special couple and it doesn’t hurt that they are simply gorgeous and my camera can’t get enough of them.  Being a part of their wedding was a real pleasure, and even more special because Cassie and her family are so dear to us.  

After a summer shower, the sun peeked its rays back through and I thought that this image captured the happenings of the day, in terms of weather, and especially captured the essence of their new marriage.  

So here is a little sneak peek and lots of love for you both.  ENJOY!!!

Rachel…

Last Thursday I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful Rachel.  She contacted me a couple of weeks ago and mentioned that she would love to model for me sometime soon.  Well of course, I was the one that was anxious to get her in front of the camera.  I mean come on…she is gorgeous.  She is shown here showcasing a small portion of the hat line designed by Pretty Girl Couture.  

I have to tell you that it was the hottest day that I can remember in Atlanta in a long time, and within two seconds of starting the shoot I was soaking wet, well okay maybe I was just glistening a small amount.  Nonetheless, Rachel remained glamorous and without a flaw.  She never complained, and honestly I never saw one small amount of glisten on her anywhere.  These girls…they really are amazing in every way. 

 Thanks Rachel for rocking this shoot, and a special thanks to your mom for coming along and helping us out.  I have to tell you that was the best Vitamin Water that I have ever tasted.  You guys are the best.  

ENJOY!!!
