I got to kick off my 2025 with Lisa and Colm’s Chicago winter engagement session! The beginning of January is always buzzing after the holidays, and downtown Chicago was definitely still in the spirit. When I first heard from these two, I learned of their love for travel, nature, history, and art… and that they’re […]

James and Gretchen’s November wedding at Sarabande Chicago was one for the books. When I first heard from these two, they told me about they met during the pandemic, their mutual love of reality TV, and James’ bait-and-switch surprise proposal when Gretchen thought she was treating him to a birthday dinner. All of this, along […]

February is here… which means March is right around the corner! Which means: Brigid and Matt are getting married in a few short weeks!! These two happened to get engaged on March 1, which also happens to be their anniversary, which also happens to be the date they’ll tie the knot in 2025. Today I’m […]

Throwing it back to SUMMER today with Sean and Mike’s awesome South Branch Tavern wedding! Not only was this day long-anticipated by their loved ones (they have been together since high school!)… but I was so looking forward to it as well. Fun fact: I first met these two at Alex and Jack’s City Hall […]

Ywonne and Morgan are getting married in ONE MONTH!! Today I’m starting the countdown with their engagement session last fall. I met these two one Friday afternoon for some classic downtown photos on the Chicago Riverwalk. We made our way to LaSalle Bridge, and then in true Ywonne and Morgan fashion, took a stroll toward […]

Happy New Year, friends!!! Hope everyone’s 2025 is off to an awesome start! Today’s post is dedicated to the Best of 2024… and as usual, choosing my favorites from the past 12 months was no easy task. Last year was an eventful one – filled with travel, friendship, the most breathtaking locations, and SO much […]

My final post this year goes out to Rosie and Scott! I loved everything about their Salvage One Chicago wedding in September. I’ve said it before, but this is easily one of our favorite wedding venues in City. Besides being a super awesome store full of antiques and unique items, it’s a memorable (and photogenic) […]

Last month, I traveled to California for Marisa and Declan’s San Francisco engagement session! We actually rescheduled our original date that same week due to coastal flooding in the forecast, and I’m so happy we did!! The three of us managed to stay safe and dry while visiting their favorite local spots – and the […]

Summer weddings in Chicago have our heart. The city is vibrant and full of life, and every weekend there’s something fun happening. The chances of you getting congratulated by strangers on your wedding day are about 100%. Emma and Tyler tied the knot at Cafe Brauer over Labor Day weekend, and their day was no […]

Lucinda and Mark’s Chicago Athletic Association Hotel wedding this year was one for the books! These two have a love story that couldn’t have been written more perfectly. In their words: “The year Lucinda and Mark met they were miles apart — 5,440 miles apart to be exact. Both were riding out the tail end […]

Lincoln Park Engagement Earlier this month I met up with Ling and Alex for their Chicago fall engagement session in Lincoln Park! These two were recently engaged and a treat in front of the camera. Even though they will tie the knot in California next year, they wanted their engagement photos to represent the city […]

Another highlight from our summer is Alex and Stacey’s destination Chicago Winery wedding! These two are currently East Coasters, but first met at a Halloween party here in the Midwest while attending Northwestern University! After their spring Jersey City engagement session, I was so excited to see these two again back in Chicago. The Gwen […]
