Since everyone in River Ridge seems to know each other, her last name rang a bell! It&#8217;s always so nice when you get to work with friends of friends. It was funny because we comfortably booked everything via phone and email even though we hadn&#8217;t met yet. Randomly, I was at Bootcamp one night and I kept hearing &#8220;Frances&#8221; while we were working out&#8230; so after a few times &#8211; I was like WAIT I think that&#8217;s the Frances that booked me! (Because she is also friends with Guerre who runs Bootcamp for us) So anyway, shortly after- I said.. hey I&#8217;m Jen Amato- you&#8217;re Wedding Photographer! HAHA, what a way to meet huh? So then we chatted about their upcoming Engagement Session and continued working out! She was so sweet, I couldn&#8217;t wait to do their shoot!<\/p>\n<p>So here they are! I loved how she had a vision and wanted to go with it. Loved the idea of hopping on the Streetcar and finding interesting spots on Oak Street. They love the restaurant Jacques-Imo&#8217;s, so it was fun incorporating that into their shoot. Came across that old Lime green VW Bus again on Oak and couldn&#8217;t pass it up- love that thing! I had a great time photographing such a cute couple, enjoyed chatting with them and riding the street car along St. Charles Ave. Can&#8217;t wait to photograph their Wedding this upcoming June!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some on the streetcar!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"mf_eng_0004\" src=\"http:\/\/jenamato.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/mf_eng_0004.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"mf_eng_0005\" src=\"http:\/\/jenamato.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/mf_eng_0005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/>Frances&#8217; green dress was so bright- loved it!
