Saturdays were made for blogging! 

LOCATION: West Midtown

In August I donated a 1-hour photo session to Atlanta's HumpDay Mixer , which was benefitting the EndIT Movement to end human trafficking. Sara, the beauty pictured below, ended up being the lucky raffle winner! It was such a blast shooting lifestyle shots around West Midtown with her. Talk about someone who know's style!

Lauren & Alan's Baby Shower

Sarah Ellen Vitel Photography. Lauren & Alan's Baby Shower at The Office in St.Charles, Illinois.

Last Sunday Lauren and Alan gathered with friends and family at The Office, in Downtown St.Charles, to celebrate the upcoming arrival of baby Heidecke!

The Office in Downtown St.Charles, Illinois was the perfect celebratory location full of natural light and historic charm. How does one keep a shower exciting? Split it up! Alan held his "man shower" on the main floor, where all of his dudes ate wings and drank beer. Level two? Welcome to beautiful baby shower central which was decorated with warm hugs, smiling faces, colorful gifts, and the cutest little onesie cookies you've ever seen. 

I'm so glad they invited me to celebrate and document this beautiful day with them.

Check out the fun, below! Tap the photo to see each photo in full view.

Scooby's Red Hots

Fresh cut fries, 7inch Scooby dogs, & a 44oz Scooby cup with free refills for life.

Fresh cut fries, 7inch Scooby dogs, & a 44oz Scooby cup with free refills for life.

This little place on the corner lit up with neon lights and an inflatable waving hot dog caught my eye every time I drove past it. After 18 years of living less than 15 minutes from it in the Chicago-land suburbs, it was finally time to stop. As a college transplant who temporarily ended up back in her hometown after moving away from a college town filled to the brim with creatives, I was aching to find exciting locations to create some photo magic at. Scooby's hot dogs not only has beautiful neon signs and black and white tile everything, it has the best dogs and fries I've tried in the surrounding area. It gives Portillos a run for it's money and may have even crossed the finish line as #1 in my mind. Take a mini trip back to the era of drive-ups, chocolate malts, fresh cut fries and neon lights over at Scooby's.
