Senior Pictures - Brian Elliot

We had a lot of fun with Brian's shoot. He came in with some great ideas. He really liked the idea of being in a nice outfit but in a fountain in town. We were thrilled to oblige him. He was a great sport when we wanted him actually floating in the fountain and we're so happy with how these turned out.

Carmen's Trash the Dress: 15 years after the wedding

Carmen wanted us to do a TTD session with her. Her dress was already partially trashed because her basement had flooded and her dress had gotten mold on it. So we were more than happy to help her finish the job. We shot at her house, she lives on a wonderful location with a pond and fun trails in the woods behind her house. We took advantage of everything. Here are some of my favorite shots from the shoot. As I've said in previous posts, you don't have to trash the dress. We've just had clients that have decided to ruin theirs. TTD sessions tend to last 3 hours, with an average of 3 different scenes. If you are interested in a Trash the Dress (bridal) or a Rock the Frock (prom) session please call us at 309.837.3252 or email us at info@jacksonstreetphoto.com.

4th of July: Barbie and G.I. Joe Wedding

Ryan and I shot an awesome wedding on July 4th. There were many cool things about it, the bride and groom were incredibly nice, everything was non-traditional, and the cake was have camouflage and half Barbie pink. The groom is part of the bomb squad and has done one stint in Iraq already, and from what I know is going to be going back for another. The bride has been a nanny in NYC, and she looks like Barbie, but with tattoos. =] Here are a few fun pictures from the adventures of the day. This is Part One. I'll have Ryan's pics up later. He has a lot of fun pictures with the groomsmen and I like his ceremony pictures more.
