I have known Dana as long as I’ve lived in Chicago (a whole decade!). Over the years we have shared many conversations regarding art, dreams, food, boys (men)… and most recently, babies! She and her husband Jordan have one of the most extraordinary love stories, going their separate ways and defying odds to return to each […]

I met Lani pretty soon after she and Justin moved to Chicago last year. She gets so excited at every opportunity to talk about her upcoming wedding, and I can’t help but ask her about it! Their destination wedding plans have been in the works for some time now, and it’s all finally coming together. […]

Hey guys! Guess what?! I finally got to visit Salvage One, and the rumors are true: it’s FANTASTIC! Such a unique space exploding with photo opportunities, complete with an oh-so-tempting shuffleboard table. Emily and John are tying the knot there in March, and we were able to spend some time in the space during their engagement […]

When Rachel and Jonathan asked me to photograph their Cozumel, Mexico destination wedding, I couldn’t contain my excitement! My passport was ready, I was already familiar with the island, and couldn’t think of anything I’d rather be doing the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Clearly, the answer was a resounding YES! And the result was more than […]

Ah, the first snow of the season. This brings mixed feelings to many of us. Either you’re dreading the long winter (and supposed return of Chi-beria) ahead, or you welcome snowy weather with open arms. Mary and William’s December engagement session was the perfect opportunity to embrace Chicago’s weather! We began at Lincoln Park before dusk. Mary […]

Angie and Sam are two of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. Obviously very much in love, kindness and happiness just radiate off of them. The couple describe themselves as “still newlyweds” after being married two years ago in their home state of Michigan. They wanted some photos to remember their time in Chicago […]

I was absolutely thrilled when Alice asked me to document her destination Chicago elopement. She and Harry planned to visit from London and get married at City Hall… without telling a soul. This is so my style – I thought. How spontaneous! How romantic! And to top it off, she was the first bride to […]

Amanda and Rob’s downtown Chicago engagement session was quite an adventure. These two tie the knot in our city next September, and I couldn’t be more excited for them! They had so many great ideas for this session, and it was not easy to narrow down. But – lucky for us, we made it happen! […]

For the second year in a row, I was asked to photograph CASA of Cook County’s annual fundraiser that took place in September. For those unfamiliar, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children) is a non-profit organization dedicated to finding safe and loving homes for children in the foster care system who have experienced abuse and […]

Last month I had the pleasure of photographing Caitlin and Tommy’s Milwaukee engagement session. I’ve known Tommy for a few years now, and was thrilled when I learned of his summer engagement! Even more excited was I to meet his adorable bride-to-be. If she loves Tommy, I thought – she must be awesome! And guess what? […]
