Roni and David had their first baby, Quintessa, a few months ago. So when their friend, pro photographer Mysi of Soda Fountain Photography asked if they’d like do a shoot inspired by their love of music, they jumped at the chance to get some gorgeous photos of themselves and their new addition.
The shoot took place at Honky Tonk BBQ Garden, in Chicago. Roni wore a selection of handmade dresses and headpieces. There were stringed instruments everywhere, harmonica favours, a rocking horse and bathtub that they stood in! The vintage furniture was perfect for displaying the gorgeous cakes, flowers and paper good created by some awesome local wedding vendors.
“Roni and David actually had a wedding shortly after this shoot, but because it was going to be so small and their little family was so big with love, I wanted to do something fun for them”, Mysi wrote. “They are both musicians (the kind that play everything), so we infused some instruments and a little Stevie Nicks feel to the whole thing. I told everyone not to smile at me, but there were some slip ups and it was perfect. I love everything.”

Her wedding dress is amazing.
I would love to wear one just like it.
Love this shoot. The colours and accessories are amazing. That cake looks divine.
One of my favourites so far. Love the colours of the table settings and flowers. Plus I love Fleetwood Mac so can’t go wrong!
