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!

It’s official.  We’re back from the best honeymoon ever.  And it feels weird to be home getting work done.  Not sure when I’ll be able to get through all of my Hawaii photos (I haven’t even finished all of the ones from my Euro vacation in August!) but I did want to share at least one before work […]

Wow wow wow.  What a whirlwind weekend.  Things still feel a little unreal.  Married the most hilarious man in the world who also happens to be my best friend on Saturday and I couldn’t be happier!  We’re off to Hawaii for some honeymoon adventures and relaxation.  I’ll be back with lots of posts and updates […]

Cambridge UK Punting Boats

UK Adventure: Cambridge

February 18, 2012

I was going to combine the last two parts of the trip into one post, but then I realized that Cambridge really deserved it’s own post because it was my favorite place to take photos this go around. Chelsey and I forced ourselves to wake up early to hop a train bound for Cambridge. The […]

Thought I’d try to will away the  winter blues by posting some more pictures from last summer’s trip.  Like I mentioned in my previous post about this vacation Chelsey and I basically used Glasgow as a recharging break before heading out to Edinburgh via train.  Every August Edinburgh hosts the Fringe Festival (http://www.edfringe.com/) which is this HUGE festival […]

After just 3 days in Ireland it was time to move on to London where we would be meeting up with the rest of my roller derby team and do what we came there to do.  On Thursday we found out that our hostel in Birmingham that we were planning to stay at was flooded […]

This past August, my youngest sister and I spent 23 days traveling together in the United Kindom, Ireland, & Holland. Chelsey is 10 years younger than me so it’s been a really long time since we have vacationed together. She was still a kid when I left home for college so we have an interesting […]

Yikes that is a long title;)  I’ve been pestered for months now to get a picture of my engagement ring up so those interested can see it.  But of course, being a pro photographer means I procrastinate on my own personal photo projects.  Sometimes something as simple as just getting a picture of my condo […]

Did you ever have a day in your life when you couldn’t believe what was happening?  A day when you seriously thought you were an actor in an awesome movie?  Yeah, me either.  Until this past Sunday that is.   As many of you longtime readers know I am borderline unhealthily obsessed with playing roller […]
