". . .the pleasantest thing ever a child can do!"

This shoot reminded me of one of my favorite poems:

How do you like to go up in a swing?

Up in the air so blue?

Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing

Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,
Till I can see so wide,
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside--

Till I look down on the garden green,
Down on the roof so brown -
Up in the air I go flying again,
Up in the air and down!

- Robert Louis Stevenson

Beautiful Beginnings

For the benefit of Mrs. M. Here are a few pixies. Such a wonderful wedding. It was a pleasure and an honor to photograph. The first wedding couple on the ledge at the Sears Tower had me shaking in my boots! I'm not particularly fond of heights. However it was a great idea and many couples since have been following in your brave footsteps. Hope these few will tide you over until the entire batch is done. Enjoy.
