Destination Newlywed Session at Isla Mujeres – Lalainia & Justin

Lani and Justin’s destination newlywed session took place the day after their wedding in Cancún, Mexico. Their wedding day was a giant celebration (check out the link below!). But besides having their nuptials in a tropical paradise, they wanted some intimate, romantic portraits with just the two of them. I mean – what better way […]

Lakefront Brewery Engagement Session – Lizzie & Lucas

Lucas and Lizzie’s dreamy Milwaukee engagement session was such a treat. These two have lived in Chicago together for several years, but their story began in (my hometown) Milwaukee!

Downtown Memphis Engagement Session – Amalia & Eric

I was so excited to finally meet Eric and Amalia for their Memphis engagement session last month. In fact, I believe the morning I left Chicago was our first snowfall of the season! Needless to say, I was more than happy to head south for a bit 🙂 Amalia and Eric have known each other […]

Kelly & Matt’s Logan Auditorium Wedding and Rock Show

When Kelly and Matt first told me about their wedding plans, I was instantly excited for them. First, they wished to tie the knot in a private ceremony at Logan Theatre. As a fellow movie nerd, I knew this would be awesome! Later that evening, the celebration continued with a live music show by their […]

Wisconsin Fall Engagement Session at Apple Holler – Ashley & Brett

One very sunny day in late October, I met Ashley and Brett at Apple Holler Farm for an adorable Wisconsin engagement session. I admit, I have passed by this place countless times while commuting between Milwaukee Chicago. Never had the opportunity to check it out! I know – I can hardly believe it either! Turns […]

Woodland Couples Maternity Session – Erika & Brandon

Erika and Brandon are two of the kindest, sweetest people you will ever meet. I met them through the photography industry last year (photographing another photographer can feel like a lot of pressure!), and was so happy for them when I heard that they were expecting! For their photos, they preferred the woodland/nature feel to […]
