Rainy Days and Springtime Heat

So I recently got back from a extremely short work trip to Florida, I had all of these anticipations of listening to music with my car windows rolled down and allowing the warm florida winds wisp my hair all around. Well, you know what they say... don't have expectations and you can't be let down.

There was nothing but flooding rain, and my naturally wavy hair was a terrible poofy lions mane. Despite all of the weather issues I must say my two days down there were magical. The bride and her wedding party (all 8!) were absolutely stunning and fun girls, and I had no idea that the entire wedding party was from the Chicago area, so I received lots of great tips to check out local hot spots.

I also was able to squeeze in a reunion with my most dearest and extremely talented friends. Kaylin and I shot with Brooke Huseby, who actually introduced me last year to both Kaylin Amabile and Ashley Holloway. Never knowing what a great friendship would come of those two random photo shoots, and oddly enough after those two introduction shoots last year Brooke and I had never shot again. So it was a lovely reunion and the images that are to come are going to be fantastic.

Day two Ashley, Brooke, and the amazingly talented Julia Chew and I got together and made some really fun nostalgic images, even a purple wig came out for a few shots! So here I am back in chilly Chicago, grateful for my time down to Florida but certainly sad it could not have been longer.
