Spring is in full swing! I had the pleasure of ringing in the season with Hannah and Chris during their urban Chicago engagement session last month. It was a gorgeous afternoon (we lucked out – the next day it snowed!), and these two are just adorable together! They even coordinated outfits in black and white. […]

Kathia and Todd. Where do I begin with these two?! Not only did I have the honor of photographing their intimate Metropolitan Brewery wedding – they’re also dear friends. In fact, some of you may recognize the handsome salt-and-pepper bearded officiant… Jeremy (MY other half) often tags along to weddings as my second photographer, but […]

Sam and Eric’s Chicago wedding at Mrs. Murphy & Sons Irish Bistro took place down the street from their home. Friends and family traveled from all over to celebrate with them – and what a celebration it was! After their colorful spring engagement session I KNEW this was going to be a fun party 🙂 […]

Crossing my fingers as I say this, but spring is in full swing, Chicago! Which means, if you’re into embracing the outdoors, boating season has BEGUN 🙂 To celebrate, I’m excited to share Jenn & TJ’s Chicago riverboat engagement session from last fall. Jenn and TJ live in my neighborhood with their adorable rescue pup, […]

When Katelyn and Corbin told me they were planning a Chicago Cultural Center civil ceremony, I was so excited! Elopements and smaller wedding ceremonies are always my favorite to capture, and theirs was no exception. If you’re not familiar, the Chicago Cultural Center dedicates one Saturday every month to civil ceremonies for ten lucky couples. […]

Jen and Pete’s West Loop restaurant wedding was one big, happy celebration. If you didn’t know, getting married at a Chicago restaurant has its perks! Most can accommodate both ceremony and reception, the spaces are always unique, and – bonus! – the food is guaranteed to be delicious! Jen and Pete decided on Nellcôte for […]

One Friday afternoon last month, I met a very excited John in the Winter Garden at Harold Washington Library. Spring was officially making an appearance, and as a result: it was time to propose! John put so much thought into the way he was going to ask Alex to marry him – and the anticipation was […]

Emy & Kamalu’s October Kualoa Ranch wedding was an experience I’ll never forget. More of a traditional Hawaiian wedding than the previous day in Waikiki, their celebration included luau dancers, traditional island cuisine, and ceremonial fire dancing (it was awesome!!). The entire event took place at stunning Moli’i Gardens – an otherworldly location equal to […]

This past October, I had the opportunity to photograph my first Hawaii destination wedding! Local photographer Kay Salera booked me as her 2nd shooter for TWO weddings, and I was more than thrilled. Despite some hiccups in my travel plans, I finally landed in Oahu and headed straight to Hyatt Regency Waikiki. The weather was […]

Sarah and Jonathan’s fall West Loop wedding at Herbarium was a most unique celebration. From the artisan favors crafted by their families, to the DIY origami invitation, every detail was intentional. One of my favorite details was Sarah’s custom manicure! It perfectly matched the venue’s wallpaper. How cool is that?! Similarly, Sarah and Jon borrowed […]
