Danielle and Adam’s wedding at Blackhawk Automotive Museum, Danville 8.2.2008

From what I have heard about the Blackhawk Museum it can be challenging to photograph weddings there because of its dark décor. Although I am not a big fan of cars, when Albert and I stepped in the exhibiting hall, we were both in awe. As we stared at the beautiful collection (especially the $12.9 Million dollar car) Albert leaned over and murmured: “I have only 1 million dollars in insurance… We looked at eachother at the same time: “Don’t – Touch – Anything”… It turned out that the Blackhawk Museum became one of my favorite places for weddings!

Danielle and Adam were one of the nicest couples I have photographed. When I got this shot for her, I quickly showed it to her on my camera display, she screamed and said: “I love you Jasmine! Thank you for making me so beautiful! You are so amazing…”

Special thanks for the wedding coordinator, Michey Azda. By the end of the wedding day, he came to me and said: “Jasmine, I have coordinated 350 weddings in my lifetime, and you are one of the best photographers I have ever seen. You are a real talent”. Coming from him that was such a huge compliment. He introduced the best cars in the hall and made it really easy for us to access those cars, without his help we couldn’t possibly get these wonderful shots.
