Two Rivers Photography

Had an amazing time photographing Dan and Kennedy's wedding Saturday. Perfect weather, great food, great friends and family made for a pretty amazing day. Kennedy and Dan are friends, we've photographed a few things for them and have really enjoyed getting to know Dan. Kennedy and my daughter are friends, having gone to school together and played softball together. They both have a real love for animals, and both have turned that into careers. Kennedy started her own business, Ken's Bark Bus, a mobile grooming operation that now has an employee to help with all her clients. She's really doing a great job and we can't wait to see where this all takes them - as they have some pretty amazing plans. Anyway, Kennedy and Dan included their two dogs, Maverick and Mack, as unofficial ring bearers. These dogs are amazing and a tribute to the work the two have put into them. (Mack is the dog on my website's cover page and Maverick is on our Facebook banner, with the engagement ring). The two didn't want to see each other before the wedding, but did do written vows they read to each other with a door between them. It was very touching, it's tough to photograph a scene while your eyes are watered up. The wedding was at Camp Abe Lincoln in Bluegrass Iowa, and was beautiful. The DJ was Duane Hodges from Masetone Entertainment who did a great job keeping the dance floor full. The food was great and from Los Amigos.

Had an amazing time photographing Allie and Kevin's wedding Friday at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Il. Beautiful place. Had an great start with Allie's hair and makeup crew, Hairs 2 the Bride, https://hairs2thebride.com/ out of Arlington Heights. We had a few showers move through, one right before the wedding started but the staff and the groomsmen pitched in and got everything ship shape so the ceremony could happen outdoors with a beautiful background. Allie and Kevin have great families, and we had a blast spending the day with them and their friends, who were awesome and up for any of the antics we pitched. They are going to have a great future and I look forward to hearing about their adventures! As always, there will be plenty more coming to their gallery in the days to come at www.tworiversphoto.com

Lovely shoot with our newest nurse practitioner! Congratulations Marie! Photographed her after she completed her bachelors just a few years ago!
