We also took a few bridal party photos on Michigan Avenue.

One of our favorites from the day, that really shows of the intricacies of Micki’s dress was this photo of our couple walking down the stairs.

Nothing beats that first look.

Now here’s one for the memory files… So as we were shooting some of these outdoor portraits Jesse was inspired to propose on the spot to Nicole. Micki was nice enough to lend her bouquet for a practice shot!

Fall colors seem more brief each year, but when you find them they are spectacular.

Micki and Jared’s wedding was full of amazing details. One of which was the size of Jared’s ring, a size 17! Obviously custom made, Micki told us when they went in to have him sized that the largest sizing ring they had was 15, and apparently the staff was in disbelief that he could possibly be a 17.

Here’s a little more scale for you.

Amazing flowers.

Not sure where the inspiration for the leaning cake came from, but it had a very “Alice in Wonderland” feel to me.

Well I see the light a lot… if I’m lucky it’s headed in the direction I want it to go. Just a quick note to let everyone know we are still alive, just busy editing photos for upcoming posts. I wanted to thank Carey for making both our Fauxtobooth and my weird flash on a stick experiments a wonderful success at Micki and Jared’s wedding last weekend. Carey will inspire your guests to make crazy faces, she is the best!!
