Resources and Inspiration for Indianapolis and Chicago Brides and Photographers – (Post by Cathy and David) We’ve built this resource page in the hope that it helps our couples be able to find great locations for inspiration for their own wedding days. We only list sites that meet our expectations and do not get any sort of kickback for listing any of them.
Wedding Inspiration Blogs -
SOUTHERN WEDDINGS MAGAZINE – We absolutely LOVE Southern Weddings. They have fabulous people working for them and Lara is just the best. We always find something new and awesome to read when looking over their blog.
CLOVER AND BEE – One of the best sites for midwest weddings. There’s nothing better out there! Rebecca and her team are absolutely amazing and put some of the best inspiration on the net.
STYLE ME PRETTY – Simply gorgeous, everything you look at on this blog will blow your mind. A great source for wedding day inspiration and beautiful weddings that you wish you could be at.

THE BRIDES CAFE – An awesome place to check out for some super-cool weddings that just rock your world.
EMMALINE BRIDE – We LOVE this great little blogsite devoted to the hand-made DIY bride. We just plain love it.
Photographer Resources and Tools -
THE [b] SCHOOL – Quite simply the absolute best place on the web to connect with other photographers and exchange ideas. We love connecting with photographers in our area, learning from others every day and sharing what we’ve learned back. We’re active members of the [b] school because we believe in what [b]ecker, a southern California wedding photographer who runs the site, believes in. A rising tide raises all ships!
SHOOTQ – There isn’t anything on the market that comes close to what ShootQ has done for our business. Having studio management software like ShootQ should be the first thing on every photographer’s list. It helps you keep in touch with clients, remember who booked you and avoid the dreaded double-booking. We cannot say enough about this business and how hard they work for their clients. The ShootQ team is simply awesome. You can click the link to get a 30-day free trial.
PICKPIC – This business is going to revolutionize the way we do our business. We can’t wait to use their online proofing system for our clients starting in the first quarter of 2010. We’ll let you know how it goes, but everyone we know who uses them, loves them. We can’t wait to make things easier for our clients and us to order prints.
