Spring Pilsen Engagement Session – Leah & Jake
A few weeks ago I met Jake and Leah at Cafe Jumping Bean for their Pilsen engagement session. They were as cute as can be, giddy with excitement and affection for each other. We talked about their story, their wedding plans, and their unconditional love for the Chicago Cubs. I learned that they first met in math […]
Logan Square Couples Session – Ali & Jeff
Hello, Blog. It’s been… a while. It’s (finally!) springtime in Chicago, and last week I was fortunate enough to spend an afternoon with a couple whom I absolutely adore.

We stood right on the bank of the Illinois & Michigan Canal. The air had a chill. The bride had a smoke bomb. (A red smoke bomb.) My life […]
