Alex & Casey

I love these two!!!  I am so excited that they are tying the knot this fall and agreed to let me shoot some photos of them! We took advantage of this beautiful weather we've been having by hanging out in Humboldt Park and Pilsen.

Then Casey had to go and one-up me with this SOLID GOLD camera- how cute is it?!?

Thank you, guys!  I can't wait for September!!!  

Mikey (& Mary)!

 Ok, seriously?  Who wouldn't want to hang out with this little cutie?

He looks so much like his dad here, its uncanny.

We met at Sweet Woods in the south suburbs & Mikey was all about it!

Mary is expecting her second baby, so we took some shots for baby Ira...

Until Mikey discovered the leaves..

It was serious business.

 

Then, I think he had enough of me snapping his photo!

Bye, Mikey! Thanks for letting me hang with you!

Gildelgar's Birthday

This is Gil, and he just turned 4 and had an awesome backyard party...

with pizza and hot dogs (his favorites).

There were cute babies galore!

Water guns! 

And believe it or not, this girl was loving every minute of it.

 There were also tattoos...

and TONS of water balloons.

Plus, there was a giant lion pinata. It was practically indestructible. 

The big guns had to step in to finally bust this thing open. 

Here's Gil's mom Vanessa, even with fifty kids running around her yard she managed to have fun! 

Happy birthday, Gil!
