This engagement session was pure magic. The combination of golden sunshine, the toasted fall colors, a woodland setting, and Julie and Eric’s smiling faces created the most beautiful photos. I adore these two and am thrilled to be photographing their wedding day next spring. I can’t wait to do this all again with you guys in May! 

I simply adore these two! Connie and Bill’s wedding day at the Ivy Room was for sure a highlight of my 2018 season. Their wedding ceremony was nestled in this intimate, ivy covered courtyard in the heart of Chicago…

Last month, we ventured to the Quad Cities for a spectacular, heartfelt Persian wedding along the Mississippi Riverfront…

Today I wanted to share with you what I believe is the most important investment you’ll make for your wedding. But first, I wanted to share my personal connection to wedding photography.

Claire and Adam met living in the same Wicker Park apartment building. Claire needed help opening a bottle of champagne. Adam saved the day and has been opening champagne bottles for Claire ever since. To start this session, we went back to the spot where it all began, with a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, of course. 

Forget about those fall sweaters and Pumpkin Spiced Lattes for a few minutes and feast your eyes on this end-of-summer engagement session…

I’ve been photographing boudoir for years now, and I’ve seen a shocking number of portfolios that are solely catered to the male fantasy…whatever that means. You know what I’m talking about: the photos that have little to do with the woman herself and everything to do with what they think men want to see. Maybe that works for some people, but it’s not what I believe.

Photographing Alyssa and Steven’s wedding day was absolutely a highlight of my summer. What’s not to love about these two!?

Personal touches and details are what turn a house into a home. That’s why I love working with you guys after the wedding to do just that! Dominique and Alan moved into their Northwest Suburban home earlier this year and I was thrilled to create a collection of custom wall art from their favorite wedding and engagement photos…
