About us

So we have a new website! And this is my first blog.. I wanted to keep clients and everyone else updated as much as possible on what's going on in our lives and for our business. To start out, since none of this information is on our website, a little bit about Adam & Eve Photography. I'm Yvette Blick and my husband is Adam Blick. I grew up in Granite City, IL near St. Louis, and he grew up in Morton, IL near Peoria. We met at IYCM church camp when I was in Middle School. I knew right away I wanted to be his wife. Time passed and we kept in touch and when I moved to Peoria to study photography at Bradley University, we started dating and got married about a year and a half later. We have been married for 2 years now and we are very much in love. We are both very passionate people and both love traveling, adventures, outdoors, music and of course photography. We started our business shortly after we were married and have completely exploded with business in less than 2 years. We are very grateful for everything we have and for the opportunities we have to create a business that is all our own. Completely unique. Just for us. And the best (and scariest) thing is that it will be what we make it. It is completely up to us to make it what we want it to be. Good or bad. Very succesful... or a complete bust.

So where are we now? We are near St. Louis. We do not have a studio yet, but to me that isn't such a bad thing. Yes, eventually we want a studio, but for right now, we love to travel. We don't know where we want to settle down with a studio. We do all of our shoots on location, so anywhere outdoors, in your house or anywhere else we can think of. We have family )my brother, wife and kids) in Colorado near Denver and we hope to start getting business out there to possibly either move there or at least be there part of the year.
We also do a lot of work near Peoria, Chicago, Bloomington, Springfield, Iowa, Ohio and Missouri. We are most definitely willing to go where anyone needs us. We would love to do destination weddings. We have had a few inquiries but haven't booked one yet. (crossed fingers) 
I'm not sure if the time shows on here but it's pretty late. I'm a night owl and adam is asleep. When I stay up too late I get a Yveeeeeettttte from him. So it's time to go to sleep before that happens!
Thank you for reading. More to come!
