Happy 1 year birthday Matthew! This morning I went to the home of Erin, Chuck, & baby Matthew. Already mr matthew was engrossed in books and "reading". At only one year of age, he was very perceptive to everything around him and his eyes displayed wonder and curiosity. With a little help from Elmo and his singing mommy, we got this handsome young man to strike his cute whimsical smile.

This evening I had the honor of photographying the wedding of Heidi and Adam. Their ceremony and reception were in the same location - The Shores of Turtle Creek. This is the second wedding this month were I have been to the shores and both wedding we marvelous. During the wedding Adam sang a new song specially written for his new bride. Needless to say, there were many many tears of joy. Below are just a few of the best images from the day. The rest will be posted online in a few weeks, so please check back after Thanksgiving.

Congratulations to Heidi and Adam!!!

Anyone can appreciate the sentiment in this photo, which is appropriately titled "Long Voyage". The image represents childhood moving into womanhood; crossing the path from one world and into another. The experience of youth and innocence is short lived and blurred, and the wedding day is a small depiction of the speed of life and memories. Blink once and you may miss both, blink twice and you've seen nothing.

At Plum Tree Studio Wedding Photography, you are our inspiration. It is photos and opportunities such as these which continue to light out lives as much as our equipment. Working with each client inspires our photographers to try different angles, different poses, different lighting, and a different perspective.

Each wedding as unique as thumbprint. The DNA of every wedding is the same – the white dress, the tuxes, the flowers, the dj’s, the flower girl and ring bearer, and the wedding cake. But each couple brings to the ceremony their own proclamation of love and devotion. Each reception party bring to it a unique sense of life and energy. Every “first dance” is the beginning of a new life. This is what inspires us as wedding photographers.

You inspire us!

Below are some of my favorite images from the wedding of Laura and Peter. Such a warm and fun couple; the main thing I noticed about them is that they were both always smiling and laughing. Made the day even more amazing for everyone!

More images will be posted in a few weeks so please check back again. The reception was at the Shores of Turtle Creek in Illinois, November 1 2008.

Congratulations to Laura and Peter Jedrzejewski!
