elcome to the journal for April O’Hare Photography! Here you’ll find all of my latest photographic outings with the couples, families, seniors and small businesses that I get to work with and make beautiful photographs for. You may also see a personal post here and there discussing my life or my travels with my teeny family of one husband and three cats! Sometimes I even write advice articles with tips to help make your photo experience better which you can check out under the “Educational” category.  

Take your time and look around! Type in the place where you’ll be getting married in the search box to see if I’ve photographed there before. At the bottom of the page I’ve highlighted some of my favorite sessions and weddings from the past. Grab a drink and have fun going down the photo rabbit hole!

My friend and I took a boat over to Djurgarden in Stockholm to check out the really neat Vasa Viking Ship museum. They pulled this wooden ship up from the ocean floor in Stockholm 333 years after it sank. It’s amazing how much of it they were able to salvage. Apparently it sank due to […]

Every year the Rocky Mountain Rollergirls put on the best party to celebrate our previous year and to give out awards. This year’s prom theme was “Galaxy Lite Brite” aka Outer Space meets Glow in the Dark. Sometimes I set up the open air photobooth and see what my crazy friends come up with when […]

Today is the very first day of 2014. I want to begin this post by talking a little bit about last year. 2013 was a bit of a wild ride for me. Mostly because my mom was diagnosed with tongue cancer at the beginning of the year and underwent a very scary surgery where they […]

I am the oldest in a very large family and the youngest in our clan is turning 18 in two days which means I am officially old […]

Some frond plants photographed along the trail in Lava Tree State Park We went back to Volcanoes National Park that evening to see it in the dark. I was able to get this by placing my camera on the longest timer possible and setting it on the ledge. I feel warm just looking at it! […]

Love how wild and crazy this one is. How many plants have little feathers? The pretty Wananalua Congregationalist Church in Hana. The Waimoku Falls waterfall at the end of the Pipiwai Trail could barely fit in the frame! We stayed at the Wailea Beach Marriott Resort over on the southwest side of the island. We […]

2012 has been such a whirlwind year for me. I kept myself really busy with roller derby, photography, and a pretty decent amount of travel too. But the best part about 2012 was that I got to marry my best friend:) I think I could probably go on and on about all of the highlights […]

So excited to see how my pro pictures turned out.  But in the meantime I thought I’d share some of my favorites from the photobooth at our wedding at Chatfield Botanic Gardens last month.  My photobooth is a little different from the traditional style.  I actually call it an “Outside of the Box” photobooth because […]
