Weekend in Chicago... Julie Marie Portraits, Delaware Portrait Photographer

Well, J and I went to Chicago for a quick visit over the weekend. We joked about it b/c to be quite honest, we spent the majority of our time in the car getting to the airport, on the plane and riding on the subway & we left 75 degree weather to spend time in 45 degree weather! (who's complaining, though!) :)

We got in on Friday and my sister and her husband met us there on Saturday. Well, you're wondering what we did in Chicago? WE WALKED & SHOPPED & WALKED & SHOPPED, but we had a great time. (We also ran into a friend of ours who I went to grade school and high school with, so it was great seeing her and her family) Anyway, I came across a (new to me) jewelry line called Alexis Bittar. (actually, my sister is the one who was on a mission to find some of his jewelry) and sure enough, we found it. She ended up buying these beautiful earrings for me as a wedding shower gift (J was fine with this b/c he says the wedding and shower gifts are all for me b/c he'll never use any of it) and I had to pick up one of his bangle bracelets to go with the earrings. Anyway, you'll have to check it out. He has some great lucite jewelry and fun colors out for spring/summer.


And last but not least....a picture of J & I taken from my cell phone camera on a break from shopping on Saturday in Chi-town:

Stay tuned....a lot more coming up and a lot more sessions to post soon! Also, you'll have to stop in Bel Boutique in downtown Dover to check out their new gallery wrapped canvases from our photoshoot....very cool, if I might add! :)
