Believe it or not, Melanie and Spencer planned their summer Starved Rock State Park elopement in a matter of weeks. I first met these two in late February at one of our mutual favorite coffee shops in Logan Square. Shortly after then, it was clear that their original wedding plans would need to be altered. […]

Planning a wedding long-distance is not the easiest thing to do, especially when COVID changes your plans completely! In August, Taylor and Luke flew from Los Angeles to Chicago to wed “in global sickness and in health” (their words). Believe it or not, their Illinois country club wedding was planned in a matter of weeks! […]

It may be hard to believe, but Caitlin and Brett’s gorgeous July wedding at Sunset Ridge Country Club was not the event they had originally planned.

Earlier this month, I got to spend the evening with Angie and Mike for their dreamy Humboldt Park engagement session. There’s no denying these two are adorable together… this session was such a breeze! I’ve known Angie for years and was beyond thrilled when she and Mike became engaged last December. So much happiness here, […]

Libby and Avi’s Lakeview neighborhood engagement session last month was such a blast! These two got engaged on Leap Day at the Lincoln Park Conservatory, and then moved in together shortly afterward. Of course, that also means Chicago’s Stay at Home Order was implemented around the same time. Consequently, Libby and Avi began to spend […]

Claire and Mark’s romantic summer engagement session was one my first sessions since March. As you can imagine, I couldn’t have been more excited to be pick up my camera again!
