A few months ago I had the honor to work with the fabulous team behind EightWest for their pajama party held at Art Van.  When they asked if I would like to photograph and participate in the EightWest Wedding Party I couldn’t say yes fast enough!

While I don’t often participate in wedding shows, I did know I wanted a very fabulously-designed space to showcase some of my work for the evening. I immediately enlisted my friend and fellow wedding professional, Dee of Element of Elegance.  We pulled together antiques, pictures and Dee designed floral to pull it all together.

The evening was filled with amazing area vendors, dancing, a fashion show, and of course hosting the evening was the beautiful and talented hosts of EightWest, Terri DeBoer and Rachael Ruiz.  I was there snapping ‘engagement pictures’ of those who attended and enjoying the festive atmosphere.  Thanks to all those who attended and from what I hear, this is going to now be an annual event!

To see all the pictures taken, you can view the slideshow here.

I am so excited to be participating (and taking pictures!) in the EightWest Wedding party this Wednesday.  There are loads of fabulous vendors and free swag so all you brides-to-be, grab your friends, fiance and family and come down to see what all the hype is about!  Ready to RSVP?  Here’s the link….Facebook.com/eightwestonline

See you there!

I am heading to my favorite Midwest city of Chicago at the end of the month for shoots and have a few sessions open for Friday March 26 - Sunday March 28. If you live in the Chicagoland area (or want to travel to Chicago!) and want to set up a session, email me at amy@acarrollphotography.com.  They book fast and I’m booking on a first come, first serve basis.

Have a lovely day all!
