Alison Raymond + Quinn Shortal ~~ Pure Inspiration!!

Henry David Thoreau once said …

“The question is not what we look at, but what we see.”

- and when I look at Alison and Quinn Shortal of Jerseyville Illinois, I see an intelligent and sophisticated couple (not to mention a completely photogenic couple) that totally inspire me to “want” to capture the very best in all of my subjects! Albeit, it wasn’t terribly difficult to do with this particular couple – we still had our fairly normal set of challenges and hurdles to overcome when the reality of  “racing against the wedding clock” mentality kicked in. Despite the challenges that come with every wedding, we are constantly attempting to “raise the bar” both photographically and journalistically. We consistently strive to differentiate ourselves both in terms of style & quality – and I think we’ve successfully accomplished that goal once again, with this wedding!

Quinn … Alison … we had a GREAT time working with you as a couple on your wedding day!! You literally have hundreds of amazing photos, but these are just a few of my personal favorites!! I wanted to also say … thank you so much for the wonderful friendship, hospitality, and also for the humbling opportunity to share in this most memorable and amazing day!! To many years of happiness!!!

Cheers~
