2012 - Twin-nado

Can we just pause for a minute and reflect what a tsunami of a year 2012 was?  As well documented as it is, it still blows my mind all that happened.  Quick synopsis, Olaf style:


Yay! We're pregnant!

Maybe there's two?

THERE'S TWO!?  I knew it! 

Oh...crap two of everything

We need a house!

Let's buy a house!

Let's look at 50 houses...

I don't want to buy a house anymore

Oh I found the perfect house!  Buy it.

Meanwhile, back at the doctor: Uh oh, no membrane

Wait there's the membrane!  But what's that?

"I'm the bad guy!"

We bought a house!

We bought a house?!

Let's move!

What? Twins are coming?  Nobody move!

How are we going to move?

Here comes the Church!  

"Move that into the kitchen, carefully move the wife into the living room"

Well that was easy...Yeah, good, because the next part won't be

Twins are coming! 

Yay!  Wait...it's only 22 weeks!

Hold on!  Stay in there!

Infinite cosmic hospital stay - itty bitty living space.

I really wonder how much this bill will be...

Happy Mother's Day! Here's some burnt creme brulee

Wake up. School. Hospital. Eat. Repeat. 

They're the size of a [insert favorite fruit here].

Twins are coming and we're really not joking this time!

False alarm

Ok the twins are really really coming and we're REALLY not joking this time

Ninja move!  Break into the hospital!

They are here!

And two month hospital stay

Boy I really wonder how much this hospital stay is going to be.

Beep....beep...beep...

They're doing good!  

They're doing bad.

They're doing really good. You can take them home

Don't forget to breathe honey!  Ellie! @#$@

Nurse: ummm...Ok...I think you can still take them home

...wait what?!  

Drive really really really carefully.

Ok we're home with the twins! Don't go anywhere.

Let's go to Wisconsin!!

WAAAAAAAAAAAA. Pull the car WAAAAAAAA over!  Anywhere!  

That shady parking lot in the middle of Chicago looks good.

Parent brain fog!  

Gosh...I don't really remember the rest of the year...Did things happen?

something like 3am bottle feeding/pumping

Wait, is he's carrying an invisible child?

"She was awake, but now she's back to sleep" **Scary horror music here** 

Hey is that the hospital bill?  2 Million dollars!!


Well honey...that was a lot of fun...We should do it all again in 2016...

Joe and Heather

  What an incredible time celebrating with Joe and Heather.  And who would have thought that a rainy April morning day could have turned into such a beautiful afternoon.  Which is good because I promised Heather sun!  I can’t begin to say how much fun we had with the whole group at the reception.  So much fun!  Here are a few shots of the day.      These next pictures are my favorites, the dress was amazing and that bouquet was out of this world!     And I’m not kidding - right before Heather walked down the aisle, a beam of light from the majestic church broke its way through the window and followed Heather all the way down.  I just turned off my flash and let Heather and her spotlight work the magic.     Ha! Cracks me up. This reception was a party!   Thank you so much you two for letting us be a part of your day!  We hope you enjoy the pictures!

Happy Anniversary Month - Throwback 2009

Happy Anniversary to my incredible wife.  Here's day 1 of 12.   Throwback blog!!  So I tried to revive ye ole xanga blog but I think it's lost in the underworld of Internet blogs.   But wow! Here we are. Starting our 12th year of marriage. Considering that there is song dedicated to the 12 days of Christmas, I wanted to take some time and reflect on the years that have gone by.  So I'm devoting this throwback blog post to every year of marriage.  You can expect a post for the next 12 days (note: I'm going to try really really hard to post every day considering all the chaos THIS year is bringing).  While there was so much more that happened before this, let's start all the way back in two thousand ought nine, back when “Boom Boom Pow” by Black Eyed Peas topped the charts. Back when Avatar just spend a ridiculous amount of money on their blockbuster, and when Angry Birds was still a thing. 2009! The year we got married! I remember si...

My first experience with a Mexican wedding

This past weekend I got the priviledge to shoot a wedding, and it just happened to be a Mexican wedding! The wedding was very fast paced, as I just found out that I was the photographer 9 days before the wedding. But the couple, Gaby and Fernando, were very fun to work with and it was a fun wedding. Some would say that there aren't a lot of differences between Mexican and American weddings. Of course they have a lot of the same things: a church, a bride, a groom, a priest. I mean there isn't much to that. I have never been to a Catholic wedding, so I don't know the differences and similiarites there. But let me just say that I think there are a lot of differences, Mexican weddings are crazy (good crazy)! After the bride finished getting ready, we headed off to the church. They didn't have a driver, so I quickly switched from photographer to chaufer in a matter of seconds. So I drive to the church with 15 minutes until the wedding. I was worried about getting t...
