Stasia + Carrie are Engaged!

April 19th, 2010

Do you believe in fate? When you look at who’s sitting next to you in this journey called life, do you sometimes think that fate must have something to with it? That something or someone must’ve brought you together, because you are so like-minded, and fit so perfectly for each other, that there’s no way [...]

 

Do you believe in fate? When you look at who’s sitting next to you in this journey called life, do you sometimes think that fate must have something to with it? That something or someone must’ve brought you together, because you are so like-minded, and fit so perfectly for each other, that there’s no way this was an accident? I believe Stasia and Carrie are two of those people.

Stasia is a Hematology/ Stem Cell Transplant nurse at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
Carrie is a Field Officer for Amnesty International.

Carrie completed the Chicago Half Marathan benefiting the AIDS Foundation.
Stasia completed the Chicago Triathlon benefiting for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Stasia was a Villanova University graduate ’07, and was a member of Delta Gamma, an international fraternity built upon the motto “Do Good.”
Carrie was a Villanova University graduate ’03 and returned for her Masters ’07. Also a member of Delta Gamma.

And then they met.
They became friends.
Then they hung out more and became more than friends.
They got engaged while skiing in New York in January 2010.

There is something very beautiful when two people with the same kind and giving spirit, who spend every day of their lives helping other people, find each other and decide to spend the rest of their lives together. Stasia and Carrie are incredibly in love, and it shows in these images. Congrats girls!

Engagement Session on Chicago Lakefront – Stephanie + Tsvetan

Stephanie and Tsvetan have got to be my favorite couple for allowing me to bring them out at 5am (YES, 5AM) for sunrise photos at the Chicago Yatch Club in downtown Chicago. Once we caught the sunrise, we walked over to Millennium Park and Grant Park for more cute pics. The adorable canine you see below is Gracie, who was totally confused all morning long probably because she couldn’t figure out why they dragged her out of her doggie dreams to wander around for hours in the middle of nowhere!

The primary purpose of this shoot was to get images for their wedding invitation, and hence many of the photos have lots of negative space to allow for text overlay. I’m pretty excited and can’t wait to see the final result!
