Cemetery Travels

My very talented husband and I have taken it upon ourselves to see every single cemetery in the Chicagoland and suburb area this year! So far we are up to almost all of the ones on the north side, and usually try to hit up at least 2 every weekend. I’m constantly adding new pictures in Flickr, so check there for updates!

We got the idea when I picked up Matt Hauke and Ursula Bielski’s book “Graveyards of Chicago” at the library. He is also the owner of Graveyards.com. However, we thought we’d take a closer look at some of the details in the monuments and learn more about photography in the process. It is now our obsession (and not to mention, a very peaceful and quiet escape from the noisy city every Sunday)!

I hope you enjoy!
