I'm truly thankful for the opportunities I have to work for so many wonderful couples and the people that I get to meet that surround those couples. I'm pretty much booked out for 2008. If you guys have one in November and December that you are wanting me to shoot, contact me. We might be able to work out some special rates for last minute weddings. :)

| Chicago WeatherThis past weekend I shot 2 weddings in one day. I don't recommend this to my fellow photographers out there and I seriously could not have pull this off without the help of my second shooters. Big thanks to Kenny Nakai & David Lai.
The first wedding went well and you couldn't ask for a better weather. The second one, however, gave us a little scare. For all your west coast wedding photographers out there, this will show you why we feel lucky/fortunate when we can have an outdoor wedding here in the midwest.
30 minutes before the ceremony is suppose to start:
Yes. That is rain AND hail coming down. At this point we are ready to move things inside. But the bride still had hope and prayed for good weather. (By the way, the dj was setting up his sound equipment outside. He was stuck under the tree and could not move. He got DRENCHED in rain. Poor soul...)
I kid you not, 15 minutes later, this is what we get:
We ended up having the ceremony outside. The weather was gorgeous again. Gotta love Chicago weather. Mother nature likes to keep us on our toes.
The two wedding day wiped me out. I spent most of Sunday sleeping in after church. Tomorrow I am getting some acupuncture for my tenosynovitis. It has gotten worse since last diagnosed. Wish me luck!
