This was a very special wedding for me. I met Sarah and Brent almost six years ago in Champaign, IL. Sarah and I worked together at a local TV station. It was such a beautiful and fun day. I also got to work with friends of mine, which made it the day all the better! Thank you Sarah and Brent for letting me be apart of your big day.
I had the pleasure of shooting Illinois State University’s Actor Design Showcase on Monday, April 23 at the Biograph Theater in Chicago. It’s always a fun event and it’s exciting to see talented students showcase their talents. Here are a few shots from the event. Click the link below to view more.
Take it from someone who has made things out of cardboard, it’s hard work! This story proves that passion and creativity is what really matters if life. If you love what you do and keep at it good things will come. I am donating to Caine’s Arcade Foundation.

I had the amazing opportunity of traveling to Las Vegas this week to attend NAB. It was a great experience and I will be posting some photos and video from the show in the next few days. Here is one of my favorite shots from the weekend.

After a nice Easter Sunday family gathering, my girlfriend and I decided to take a walk in a nearby forest preserve. We hiked to a small waterfall and after being there for about half an hour, a couple walked up. They were not the couple I would have thought to see hiking through the suburbs, but I knew immediately I wanted shoot their portraits. My girlfriend had to do a little convincing for me to actually approach them, but I did it. To be honest, I never even caught there names. I simply approached them and asked if I could take their portrait. That’s why I love these challenges…It makes you think outside the box and gets you out of your comfort zone. My shot was highlighted on this weeks Gizmodo Photo Challenge.
