With so many unique individuals, attracted to even MORE unique individuals, one has to admit that love looks a little different for everyone.

But it is always beautiful.

Jon is a landscape artist, so when he and Kristin hired me to shoot their wedding, which included a ceremony in their front lawn, I knew it would be a unique visual treat!

Kristin & Jon had a small cocktail hour before everyone escaped to the reception venue. I absolutely love the trees in their yard, and the fall decor was perfect!

And this! For their great getaway!

Perfectly gorgeous antique red Rolls Royce!

And they are off to the reception in this amazing Rolls Royce antique getaway car! More images to follow soon!

I love fall weddings, and I was so excited when Kristin & Jon hired me to shoot their wedding this past fall because the ceremony took place at their home, and Jon is a landscape artist! Below is a quick preview of her preparing in their home, I will be posting ceremony photos very soon! Coordinator - Robyn of Red Letter Event →

Big thanks to Thursday Therapy for pulling off another amazing event for all of us wedding vendors in Chicago last night! The party theme was 1960's dress up, Mad Men style! Of course we found the photobooth by Smilebooth highly addictive, as well as the amazing hors d'oeuvres and old fashioned drinks! Thank you so much! <3 Liesl Diesel The event was sponsored →

Although I live in Chicago, IL, I LOVE my trips to the beach! Not only because it's nice to take in some sunshine from time to time and shoot amazing destination weddings by the ocean or on various islands on the coast, but because my family lives there! My visit to the beach this past fall was very short, but we squeezed →

Kristine & Jonathan have a pretty fun story! They are high school sweethearts and now they both work at Bank of America and are also into running. The real kind of running; the kind most of us look at as some kind of super hero power because they do it for hours and hours on end. This can only lead me →
