Bride descending a staircase
I photographed this wedding with Andrew Collings. This was a fabulous Northwest side home.
Dancers
A couple of weeks ago I photographed Elements Contemporary Ballet for a story in Time Out about stockings. I loved this photo after the shoot of the dancers just relaxing.

My brother's wedding
Here is a shot from The Painted Church where my brother and sister in law were married in Hawaii. It was wonderful.
Children
I love photographing kids at weddings, from their excitement to their wearing out. This flower girl had a long day, I just couldn't resist this photo.
Dance Party
Here is a wedding I shot on my own last year. This is a picture I always attempt, just some dancing feet.

First Wedding
This was the first wedding I did of the season. Who would have guessed the cake would end up on the floor?
Most fun wedding ever.
This was my first weekend of wedding photography, and boy did I have a good weekend! It was an overcast, warm June day and Jade and Raj had this amazing wedding at the Winter Garden. Such a cool, low key and destined to be together couple.
First Post
I've been meaning to start this blog for a while. I have been working as a photographer in Chicago, and a short stint in San Francisco (I miss you, ocean), for the past ten years. My day job is at Time Out magazine. There, I am a photographer and editor. This year, on the side, I have been photographing weddings as a second photographer. My good pal Lizz Sisson, a fantastic photographer with Gerber Scarpelli, hooked me up with this gig, and so far I really like it. It's quite a challenge from being an editorial photographer. I'm used to spending an hour on one photo, but with weddings, I have to make a hundred images in an hour. I've learned much from the 3 photographers I've worked with. Mainly, I work with Joe Gallo and Andrew Collings and had a one day shoot with Renee Gooch. I must say, they are all excellent people and photographers and all are kind enough to teach me something at each shoot. I feel pretty lucky to be a working photographer, both doing weddings and for a fantastic magazine.
The next few posts will be a collection of images and words from the weddings I've done thus far. As I said, I've been meaning to post these for a while. Then, we'll take it current.
Thank you.
