Jannies and Graham taking the plunge!


  Meet Jannies and Graham...



    I was so ecstatic when Jannies and Graham asked me to take their engagement photos. I have known Jannies for about 15 years from college.  Jannies and I are part of a sorority alpha Kappa Delta Phi. I met her during the first meeting of the interest group she wanted to start at UIC and from then, she has been a very close and dear friend. We have seen each other through all the ups and downs, tears and laughter, and now I am witnessing the best moments of her life.  She is about to start a new adventure with her best friend Graham.

  Sometime in Oct 2011, Jannies had asked me if I can take their engagement pics. I said of course! She had a theme in mind...Taking the Plunge. I knew these two love birds enjoy snorkeling and scuba driving, so I immediately thought they probably want to jump out of a boat or something dealing with water.  Yes, Jannies wanted to do a photo shoot on Lake Michigan on Graham's cousin's speed boat.  How exciting!  We met at the Harbor and Graham and Kevin picked us up at the dock. The captain took us a few miles out, so we can get the skyline in the back ground.  It was a beautiful day to take the plunge...
