The day before my sister Amanda moved to Montana, after graduating college in June, my mom said she wanted an updated photo of all of her daughters. We took some pictures together the night before she was leaving and we were all pretty tired so they didn’t really turn out very frame-worthy.Read on
Fall Portrait: Maddie Plaza

Mid November, a few days after the first short & quick snowfall in the Chicagoland area, we had a fall photo shoot. It felt like we were slightly tempting fate and racing against time wondering if the fall colors would still be around, but it turned out to be a beautiful fall day with the rain staying away and the leaves remaining on the trees.
It turned out to be the perfect day for a portrait shoot with this adorable little girl.

While out on our shoot with Joel Runyon we had the inclination to do a series of promotional videos to coincide with the launch of his new Impossible T-Shirts. Unfortunately the extremely impromptu nature of the video shoot meant that we didn’t have any gear with us (the audio shows it’s just a bit windy in Chicago, who knew?!) 
but the silly nature of the videos actually lend to the imperfection

When our good friend Joel Runyon mentioned that he was racing in the Chicago Triathlon it was quickly decided that we would go cheer him on. He is the person who convinced Marla to finally try a triathlon of her own earlier this summer, how could we not?

Fast forward to now and, cameras in hand, we had the privilege of shooting Facing Forward at Metro. It was a blast.
