hello, nice to meet you.

We're illuminare photography + cinematography and this blog/website serves as our initial meeting ground, allowing you to get to know us and our work a little better. While we have a portfolio section and frequently post blog highlights from our weddings and portrait shoots, we also keep the blog rolling with a bunch of various photos and videos that we do for ourselves when we're out just having a good time. We feel that it's important to share this side of ourselves and allow you to see who we are, how we work, and what we think is cool.

So sit back, relax and have fun browsing around! And if you feel that we'd be a good match for you, we'd love to hear from you!

Christmas Lights!

Tuesday, December 23, 2008 life in general

I can’t remember a year when I have been more in the Christmas spirit than I am this year. I am just having a blast with everything from wrapping presents. to baking Christmas goodies, to driving around looking at all the Christmas lights in Highland Park.

For our wrapping we printed monograms for everyone and cut them out of pattern paper.

Last night we jumped in the car and drove around Highland park just to check out all the lights. There were a ton! I don’t remember doing this since I was about 10 years old!
