kelly & russ {e-session}

i found myself back in my childhood hometown of naperville, IL for this engagement session. kelly and russ are planning an intimate wedding celebration on michigan's lakeshore this fall (and i'll get to work with jessica of stella event design. so fun!). it just seemed meant to be when she contacted me for photography because well she has a great name and to discover that they live in naperville...too fun!

i loved this session...kelly is sassy and chic (check out her killer shoes!) and russ is calm, cool and collected. a perfect balance. and to make it even more delightful they brought their lil' puppy frankie along too! frankie was the one who "checked out" the new neighbor russ...and gave her doggie approval. and it was when they were out walking frankie that russ proposed to kelly. she's their very own cupid...
















FAVORITE!!!








doesn't kelly look like eva longoria??? too cute!




thanks guys for a great evening and for treating mike & i to a lil' vino! really can't wait till your celebration...
