It makes me furiously happy! <br />
<br />
Here is an excerpt from my favorite dance that we captured this year: A contemporary ballet performance to a string version of "With or Without You". Chills. Every time. I love Lisa's School of Dance in Bartlett. Both my girls dance there and we love each and every teacher. <br />
<br />
I was honored to do their photography and video this year, and it was the largest job I've ever undertaken! I learned a lot from it, and I feel confident that I can take on one or two more studios next year as well. Feel free to contact me if you know of a dance studio that needs a new photographer or videographer!<br />

Thankfully it was all in one location, because the cold winds were blowing, but guests stayed warm as we had a great view of the turbulent water behind them for the ceremony. Then we went upstairs for the reception, and Amy and Kyle's guests danced the night away! The bride and groom opted for two videographer coverage with a short-form cinematic film edit. This is a highlight of shots from their wedding day. Enjoy!</span><br />

It was a pleasure to videotape Josh and Brittany's wedding this summer at one of our favorite venues, The Narnia Estate in Lemont, IL. <br />
<br />
In our pre-wedding consult, Brittany explained that she didn't want a long boring video that she'd only watch once or twice. She wanted something short and fun that would be exciting to relive over and over again, and something she could share with friends and family. She was the perfect client for our new offering: Cinematic Short-Form edits! Seen here is the highlight. The main short form film is approximately 20 minutes in length, and shows the ceremony in depth, with the help of toasts and readings narrating their story. Snippets of the preparation, photo shoot, first dances and partying are added to round out the story. <br />
<br />
To be able to achieve the short form edit, we must have two videographers filming the wedding, with costs starting at $250/hour, which includes editing. As there is less time to tell the story of the day, we require extra hands and eyes to capture everything, and add in extra artistic touches that might not be possible with just one videographer. <br />
<br />
Also now available is the option to purchase our edited files suitable for uploading to a mobile device or iPad. Take your wedding film with you to share and enjoy!<br />

I remember when my girls were that young, and at least every week I'd be commenting about how they've changed, or if they've taken on one of my husband's characteristics, etc.<br />
<br />
I urge parents to photography and videotape your little one as often as possible, but in order to capture as many of their milestones and emerging personality, I have created Baby's 1st Year Photo Plan. It's an incentive to have your baby photographed 3-4 (or more!) times within the first year of life. <br />
<br />
If you book 3 full-priced sessions in one year, you receive a FREE custom slideshow DVD with 40 of your favorite session photos set to music. The slideshow is a $100 value.<br />
<br />
If you book 4 full-priced sessions in one year, you receive the slideshow as well as $100 print credit off at least $200 worth of prints or products. (A photobook is $200, so you get it half price!) We have memory boxes, accordion brag books, canvases, large wall prints, custom wood frames and much more!<br />
<br />
Please contact me at Linnea@ImagesToAdore.com for more information regarding the plan. And if you refer others, you receive even more print credits!Linnea Nowakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10540098369928845448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042267084516957588.post-56529272518334410292012-05-08T22:57:00.003-07:002012-05-08T22:57:48.478-07:00Baby Girl E! | Bartlett, IL newborn photographyIn my group of dear high school friends, everyone has had sons and no daughters (except for me!). Until Baby E came along, that is! Girl power! It was a pleasure meeting Baby E and seeing her big brother dote on her. I think mom has big plans for her little girl, if the ballet shoes are any indication! We incorporated some very special afghans into the photos as well as a smattering of my own props. <br />

Every year around St. Patrick's Day we would see at least one dance performance, and she would be mesmerized. She couldn't wait until she was 4 and would be old enough for lessons. I did a tiny bit of Irish dancing for fun and exercise when I was an adult, and I always wished that I had begun dancing at a younger age. <br />
<br />
Clara dances with <a href="http://www.trinity-dancers.com/" target="_blank">Trinity Irish Dancers</a>, and I can't say enough great stuff about Trinity. We've made some friends already who I think will be wonderful friends for a long, long time! Here are a couple favorite photos that I've taken over the past year and wanted to share. I'm a really proud mama for all that she's accomplished this year! <br />
<br />
PS: If your child is interested in trying an Irish dance class, feel free to contact me! There is a free class session in mid-May.<br />

It's always nice to take a trip down memory lane, and I had quite a bit of nostalgia during their gorgeous wedding! They were married at Sycamore's Federated Church. A place I used to be a roving Madrigal musician around the holidays. The bride was in my graduating high school class, and I ran into several school mates I hadn't seen in ages. And their reception was at St. Mary's Church, where I had my ceremony 9 years ago! So lots of stars were in alignment for me to capture this wedding, but the brightest stars shone in Jeff and Laura's eyes when they gazed at one another! Congrats, and thank you for having me capture your beautiful day!<div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAU7MiE9HDQM1BYzXNS9OEMa-UfPp90-UHMf89ob7OWTmZmBZuo6FzAzee1dhaiZYnUIzAhvW8c6xxbWi2BAD8WqjuWrBIQpswk7ssLKkYneahB2_W3qXEWcuZvAChtUzaOQQRe0IucvY/s1600/IMG_0623.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block;

And she's giving away $10,000 worth of photography props, templates and other goodies that make me drool all over my keyboard! That makes her my favorite person in the world right about now. Here is the link to her fabulous giveaway. You don't have to do anything to help me win, I'm just posting about HOW MUCH I really want to win. I really do. Especially for the M4H actions and Oh Snap Boutique templates.

I was thrilled when her mom contacted me again to say there would be another wedding coming up soon! I mentioned that we recently expanded into wedding photography as well, so Images to Adore will be both photographing AND videotaping their wedding next month!<div><br /></div><div>We met at Cantigny park in Wheaton on a hot sunny day in July, and kept cool by taking photos in the shade and exploring the park's beautiful grounds! William is a sweet guy and totally in love with his fiance.

I've been shooting for them for 4 years now, to fill in dates that I haven't already booked for my own company. They are a great studio, and I really enjoy working with the staff photographers and getting to videotape some larger events than I normally would capture with my own company.</div><div><br /></div><div>This was just such a fabulous wedding that I had to share it with everyone. My 4-year-old daughter is EXTREMELY jealous that this bride got married next to Sue the Dinosaur. To be honest, I was too! It was just a beautiful beautiful event from start to finish. I haven't had the honor to capture too many Jewish ceremonies before, and it was just so heartfelt that I had tears in my eyes by the end! And the epic sweeping music from Jurassic Park that played right before the processional was a great nod to the location they chose: The Field Museum in downtown Chicago.</div><div><br /></div><div>All primary cinematography was by me, except for a couple rear ceremony shots. ALL EDITING was done by Modern Image Studios. Again, MIS owns the copyright. I just wanted to share my videography skills. :)</div>Linnea Nowakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10540098369928845448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042267084516957588.post-53650146193909774102011-07-27T15:21:00.000-07:002011-07-27T16:09:50.120-07:00Toddler J | 18-month photo SessionI love the inquisitive nature of toddlers, and my favorite part of photographing the 1-2 year-old crowd is to try to capture the wonder and excitement in their eyes.

In eight years of videotaping weddings, I have NEVER been rained out of a post-ceremony photo/video shoot. NEVER. I actually boasted about this to brides who were worried about the forecast a few days before their wedding. "No worries, I never get rained out!" I must have gotten a little too cocky because I was eating my words at this wedding. <br /><br />It was cloudy after their ceremony as we walked towards the beach, but then out of nowhere there was a torrential downpour to deal with. And I do mean torrential. We dove for cover at a hot dog stand, but the rain was so strong it was coming in sideways and even hid the camera under my shirt to protect it :) Then we ran to an underpass and waited out the rain until we could grab a cab and go back to the Arts Center for the reception. Luckily there was beautiful galleries that the curators opened up to us to catch some shots before dinner. <br /><br />The weather cleared up shortly afterwards, and we ventured outside that evening to enjoy the downtown fireworks display. <br /><br />All in all, a gorgeous wedding. And even though we didn't get the beach shots we were hoping for, it was still one of the most gorgeous and stylish weddings I've ever had the privilege to capture.<br /><br />Congrats Zach and Tacy! And may the downpour on your wedding day be the worst that your marriage ever has to weather!</span></div>Linnea Nowakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10540098369928845448noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8042267084516957588.post-13736417567984388282011-06-23T09:21:00.000-07:002011-06-23T09:56:54.091-07:00The Closet Boutique Fashion Show! | Bartlett, IL video and photo services<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;">Martha from the Closet Boutique (located inside Banbury Fair by the Bartlett train station) is a Bartlett gem!

The day after these photos were taken, a storm washed all the blossoms off the trees.</div><div><br /></div>I was so worried about this session; if the weather was going to be rainy our backup plan was to take backdrop photos at my messy, poorly lit house. SO Glad that Mother Nature cooperated, and, in fact, was pretty spectacular for this photo shoot!

That type of more informal session is called lifestyle photography, and I was excited to do something different! Unfortunately, the weather wasn't cooperating, and it was an extremely dark day. I bounced my flash and tried to maintain a natural light look to the session.

I finally found one, and it was a warm day, so 30 minutes later we were taking photos! Unfortunately, in that half hour, the temperature dropped about 20 degrees, and I had to work fast and hard to get Beth to smile. I wanted to get some big grins before her first baby tooth falls out.

You see, Annabelle's mom is a professional photographer. We're from the same town and I videotaped her wedding several years ago. But to photograph another photographer's new baby when she has much more experience than I did? I won't lie; nails were gnawed on the way over as I reviewed my mental checklist for the gazillionth time. I did not want to screw this one up!<br /><br />And then I saw Annabelle:<div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm9bMQmfEEy9FuhK_yxmPDSVZnVMECEF8-VdU6rEWIxurftqY_roCnlKKgsrCBzIu2HcUirY3NznpWP9wtocSkxr4aFMEclud0mnuQwEStJPgfHOZ9mn33zik9CDcQALMbRiiUoEcWYvI/s1600/annabelle+newborn+web-33.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm9bMQmfEEy9FuhK_yxmPDSVZnVMECEF8-VdU6rEWIxurftqY_roCnlKKgsrCBzIu2HcUirY3NznpWP9wtocSkxr4aFMEclud0mnuQwEStJPgfHOZ9mn33zik9CDcQALMbRiiUoEcWYvI/s400/annabelle+newborn+web-33.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581446648529924994" /></a><br /></div><div><div>Cutest.

I've been trying to figure out a new pricing structure for 2011. I love what I do, but to be honest, I had almost no time with my family last year because I was always working weekends and editing every spare moment I could snatch. And I still barely broke even with business costs. That just doesn't make good business sense, and I'll be out of business by next year if that continues! <br /><br />So prices will be going up a little bit this year, but it is also in the hopes that I can acquire better equipment to create a better product for all my clients! It's win/win, I think! Top of my wish list are HD video cameras and studio photography lighting. And a sweet lens to make images even sharper. And a couple backdrops too. Those suckers are expensive! Oh, and some high-end photography products to show clients. Your images will look amazing on canvases, metal, and lay-flat books. Once you see it in person, you'll be blown away!<br /><br />Most professional photographers say that giving a CD of the best images is like giving away all your hard work and money (because you can make a lot more by charging a sitting fee and then charging for individual prints), but there are two reasons I will continue to offer a CD of 20-30 images from each session. 1-As a mom, I understand how hard it is to choose just one or two favorites. Kids have so many amazing expressions, and you want to cherish all of them! 2-As a photographer, it seems a pity to let some beautiful photos be trashed because the client can only afford one or two images. Photography is a labour of love for me. I want all my photos to be cherished and appreciated. Cheesy, I know, but it's true!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">My 2011 hourly pricing will now be $175 for both photo and video. This includes one hour of coverage, all editing associated with it, and a final DVD of photos or video. Wedding photo or video investments will average $2,000, depending on the package options chosen.</span> Please contact me for samples or to discuss what images you'd like captured in 2011.Linnea Nowakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10540098369928845448noreply@blogger.com0
