Alie and Colin are two beautiful souls and it was an absolute pleasure working with them on their wedding day in the Quad Cities. The whole day flowed effortlessly, and love was felt at every turn…

Lindsay and Tyler, it was so great catching up with you. Thanks for inviting me over to flip through your wedding album. Your new home is beautiful and I love seeing all the photos from your engagement and wedding day gracing your walls. 

Not many people can say they met standing ON Wrigley Field, but that’s exactly how Angie and Alex’s story began. Alex, who works for the Cubs, met Angie at a corporate event hosted at the friendly confines and they both agree that it was love at first sight. When it came to planning their engagement session, there was only one obvious choice for the location: Wrigley Field.

Fresh from the printers, I have not one, not two, not three, but FOUR wedding albums in the office this week, and they couldn’t be more lovely! Annie & Ryan’s Cafe Brauer wedding was what winter dreams were made of, and these albums capture the magic of that day.

I can’t get enough of these two! I had a blast working with Dominique and Alan for their engagement session. It was a beautiful summer evening spent in the west loop and downtown. We incorporated several of my favorite things: West Loop charm, a gorgeous ivy covered wall, my favorite city bridge and Jenny Yoo and Anthropologie fashions galore.

This wedding was a dream! We had the absolute pleasure of returning to the stunning Silverleaf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona earlier this month and could not have been more excited about it.

This year, I’m making it a goal to blog more photos of the finished products of my client’s wedding albums. If you’ve already worked with me, you know I get PRETTY excited about designing and printing wedding albums. It’s probably not a surprise that Lindsay and Tyler’s wedding day was one of my favorites. Ever.

Last month, I was lucky enough to photograph Andrew’s proposal to Jen with the most stunning Chicago setting as the backdrop. Despite a weather forecast filled with rain and thunderstorms, the clouds parted ways as Andrew walked with Jen along the lakeshore. That’s a good sign if I’ve ever seen one! Jen’s reaction was priceless as Andrew got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. The moment was such a joy to witness and photograph! Congratulations again you too. Wishing you all the best!

So excited to be sharing this Ivy Room wedding today! I had been looking forward to Carrie and Pat’s wedding day ever since we worked together last fall for their engagement session. The day began at a private estate in Lincoln Park where the couple and their friends and family got ready together.

When Sara and Mike told me they wanted to celebrate their 10 year dating anniversary with a photo shoot, I could not have been more excited to work with them again! These two will be celebrating their 5 year wedding anniversary later this year, and it was so much fun recreating some of the magic from their engagement and wedding day portraits.
