Kenosha Wisconsin Racine Wisconsin Wedding Photography at Dekoven Center and Conference Center

By admin - Posted on 27 June 2009

On Saturday our lead photographer did the wedding day photography at the wedding The DeKoven Center in Racine Wisconsin. This lovely Saturday afternoon, was the perfect day for Stephanie and Kevin to celebrate their love for one another by committing their vows in this 19th century Tutor style church. The ceremony was perfectly serene, with poem readings from close friends as well as the exchange of vows from the couple. We were given permission to stay within the church after the ceremony for wedding portraits of family and friends. The Center was built in 1867 as a boarding school and Christian college and over the years has been modernized yet still retains its old fashioned look and feel. The DeKoven Center is located at 600 21st Street in Racine Wisconsin, in case you are looking for a quiet and peaceful setting for your wedding day.
 
After the ceremony, everyone headed to Lincoln Park for beautiful outdoor photos of the individual couple and with their bridal party. The park is located at 7010 22nd Ave, Kenosha, WI 53143. When the lead photographer arrived the group was already engaged in fun photography of their own, as they were a very happy and lively group. We stayed near a nice wall of trees for some solid shadow, where he had our group photos of everyone, including a few sneaky kissing photos from the flower girl to the ring bearer (though I don’t think he really minded at all based on the pictures.)
 
Once we had the portrait group photos completed, we headed to the lovely white bridge down the walkway. There we had some fun with jumping photography and running jump photos. This group was awesome! So much life and energy from everyone that it made the day fly by too quickly.
 
Finally, the reception was at the Best Western Harborside Inn & Kenosha Conference Center at 5125 6th Avenue, Kenosha Wisconsin 53140-3403. The staff there was very attentive and polite. The couple had a live Jazz, Steven Rainey (Real Deal Band, called “during cocktail hour as the DJ set up his equipment. The night was much still in the swing as we ended the evening! 
 
Congratulations Stephanie and Kevin!!!

Wedding photography at St Patricks church in Wadsworth Illinois

By admin - Posted on 22 June 2009

Saturday was a perfect day for wedding photography at St. Patrick’s church in Wadsworth Illinois. The outside of the church area was full of lush greenery and flora. The surrounding area was beautiful.
 
 
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The wedding events started in the early afternoon, with the sun pouring through the tall church windows.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The setting was splendid for photography, filling in the background with amazing light. 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The light in the church was perfect for the wedding ceremony.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
After the ceremony, we stayed around for posed family portraits on the alter. The bridal party and expanded family photos went really quickly, as the light was so pure and true. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Later that afternoon, we proceeded to the Great Lakes Naval Training Center in North Chicago. We spent the rest of the evening in song and dance, with many smiles and hugs exchanged.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Around midway through the wedding I realized that I had recognized around ten people at the wedding. Finally it clicked; these were people from my form dorm Allen Hall in Urbana Illinois. When I was an undergraduate in school, I worked as a Program Advisor in the residence hall; hence I recognized so many of our former residents and desk clerks. It was great to see everyone again. A few people actually live fairly close to the new studio, so we hope to have plenty of wonderful people at our upcoming studio opening party! Stay tuned for details.
 
CONGRATS TO CHRISTINA AND WESTON!

Wedding Photography in Village of Round Lake Beach Illinois

By admin - Posted on 13 June 2009

Last weekends wedding weather was nearly perfect for Lilly and Jody’s Round Lake Beach wedding. The clouds were mixed with lovely sprinkles of sunshine, which brought out the extra sparkle in all of the dresses! The ceremony and reception was held at the Village of Round Lake Beach Cultural and Civic Center in Illinois.
 
The couple decided to see each other before the ceremony, so we were able to complete a good quantity of important family portraits before the ceremony began. This allowed the couple to spend time socializing with guests, versus standing in place doing portraits. We were able to go from portraits, to ceremony, to reception, to dancing, all without any delay.

Spring Wedding In Wauconda Reception in Gurnee

By admin - Posted on 06 June 2009

This weekends wedding was held in Wauconda and the reception at the new Vista hotel in Gurnee Illinois. The day was marvelous in the morning with the sun hidden behind the clouds, allowing the photography to be natural and light. After we did the formal photos with the ladies, we proceeded to the church. The bride waited patiently in the limo while everyone else ran from place to place ensuring everything was ready.
 
The ceremony itself was beautiful, partnered with a soft thump of a heavy rain. We all stood inside protected by the cover of the church roof. Although we had scheduled for photos at the Lake County Forest Preserve on route 176 (by the Wauconda Dog Park), with the rain and mud we moved formal portraits until after dinner.
 
Jillian and Shawn were amazing in front of the camera. Jillian, with her wide range of expressions, and Shawn with his handsome smile, both posed in from of the forest of weeping willow trees by the hotel. The poses included the standard wedding photos, plus also a few artistic and fun photos like the two of them snuggling and jumping for joy. We had some amazing images!
 
The Vista staff at the hotel were great to work with, the food was great, and the surrounding area was perfect for wedding photography portraits. The assistant manager has made note that Plum Tree Studio Wedding Photography will be a preferred wedding vendor for Vista hotel, so make sure to ask about our specials for Vista clients!
