This awesome laid back wedding was done Dattilo/Lambert style at the French House. I had a blast and was honored to shoot Maureen and John’s special day!

I would like to thank my friend Katrina for the help! You are a huge part of this successful wedding shoot!

It was difficult to choose my favorites once again!

Congratulations Maureen and John! Love you guys!

Vacation at The Greenbriar Resort

Sandra — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 01:19:49 +0000

Finally! Our Vacation for the year has arrived. This was a last minute decision made on the road to West Virginia. Chris mentioned The Greenbriar Resort (White Sulphur Springs, WV) and knew that I would like this place. He’s had friends go there and enjoyed their stay. When we arrived, I was in awe! This place is gorgeous, not to mentioned the polite/helpful staff. We were able to do everything at the resort. We hiked, I ran the beautiful golf course, watched a movie at the theatre, indoor poolside was available, extravagant restaurants (which required a dress code), took advantage of the spa, bowling, shopping, relaxed outside, tea time, casino/gambling, and more!

I couldn’t stop taking pictures. This place is amazing! Rest? Definately! We will be returning… hopefully soon!

Here is a little history of the place:

The Greenbrier is an award-winning resort. As a National Historic landmark, The Greenbrier’s classic architecture, exquisite interior design (by designer: Dorothy Draper), sculpted landscape, impeccable service and outstanding amenities have hosted distinguished guests from around the world since 1778. This grand dame of hospitality has welcomed kings and queens, presidents and politicians, luminaries and celebrities from all corners of the globe. During the Cold War, The Greenbrier was home to a secret “bunker” intended to house Congress in the event of an attack. This renowned property offers 721 rooms, including 33 suites and 96 guest and estate houses. Also the PGA Golf 2010 (July) will be held here.

Before Tracy’s Art Show, we spent some time downtown Chicago and Lincoln Park! Although the weather was bad (raining and cold), we managed to walk around, shop and eat great restaurants! My most favorite Restaurant is the Chicago Diner (Vegan/Vegetarian) located in Lincoln Park. The Food was amazing!!

Ohio Backroad Day Trip

Sandra — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 03:20:14 +0000

Today me and Chris decided to take a backroad day trip on Route 73 and 52 in Ohio. We definately got lost! However, I was able to get some beautiful shots with my Polaroid Colorpack Land Camera using Polaroid 125i Studio SILK film. I KNOW I am now addicted to this camera!
