Hi Ladies!

So the weather was not the best for a photo shoot this past saturday in chicago, the night after my photoshoot I ended up getting sick, even though I tried to keep warm in between pictures. We did our shoot for only about an hr, its suppose to be 2hrs but the weather was too gloomy and somewhat cold and it started to drizzle on top of it. Our photographer offered to do a second shoot in our casual clothes in June! thank god. Our photographer sensed we werent too happy with the weather and assumed our pictures would suck with the fog and all, he surprised me by editing 4 samples same day and emailed them!
 I added those 4 to my wedding website, please give honest feedback, anything I need to improve on or any poses you would suggest. Anything about color tone etc. our next photoshoot will be in less dressy clothes and hopefully weather will be on our side :) The pictures are under the photo tab on my wedding website, starting from photo 8-11. Also for those of you ladies getting married in Chicago, I highly recommend my photographer!!

    ohhh you guys were shooting pics in Chicago!!!  awww...definitely this weekend was not that great for pics, it was cold, raining on and off and gloomy!!! 

    On a good note, your dress was awesome and the pics are great being the way weather was.  I love the pics!!!  Just not the best time to be around the lake.  LOL.. I hope you have gotten over your cold.  You never know about Chicago's weather, always have a back up plan or indoor places you can take pics at. 

    There are so many locations to take pics in Chicago, but these are some of my favorite E-pics that I have seen....I hope it gives you some good ideas....

    Thanks for the reply - I think the photos are lovely! I actually quite like the contrast of the cold, windy sea with your outfit. Anyhow, if the photog offered to do more, no reason not to go for it. You really photograph well - I'm jealous!!

    Thank you Bells! HOw was your engagement shoot ?:)

    Meenamoo-I think it helps to be comfortable with your photographer to take pics, otherwise they look fake, I was tense at times because of the cold and he reminded me to relax, its so important to remember that or one can end up looking like a manequin, when is your engagement shoot?
