Personal Project: Old Barns of Illinois, Part 3

I am so happy to show off the third and last installment from my old barn series from our trip to Illinois back in late April. Now if we were to go to Illinois now, our days would be filled with shucking fresh corn and battling 100 degree plus heat. The fields would be green…

Our Little Boys’ Nursery

Our boys’ room is finally ready for their arrival! And of course I wanted to show it off. John and I have been designing the boys’ nursery for months and I am so excited that it’s finally ready. Since John and I have traveled so much, we definitely wanted a travel themed room, and John…

    Hello!

    I adore your work and really enjoy it so much! This might be random, but I’m an artistic director part-time and planning a shoot and we were aiming to shoot at an old barn. I just thought I’d ask where in Illinois did you shoot these gorgeous barns?

    Sorry for the random question but they are perfect and I would love to know!

    Thanks so much for your time!

    best,
