I’ve known Abby and Danny about four years now. I photographed their engagement session, their wedding, and now (well, technically a year and some change ago at this point*) I had the immense joy of photographing their maternity session! We picked Humboldt Park, which is a fantastic spot for a maternity session because it has […]
I’m SO excited to finally share highlights from Sara and Jimmy’s intimate brunch wedding at Loft Lucia. I absolutely adored this sweet couple, and their wedding shows that you don’t have to sacrifice style when you have an intimate wedding! Their day started with a lovely first look downtown. It may have been drizzly and […]
Old Town Alexandria is one of THE most charming locations for an engagement shoot imaginable. Its cobblestone streets, quiet gardens, picturesque alleys, and waterfront views are an absolute dream. For Alexa and Neal, who live in the area, this location was a no-brainer! We started our session in the gardens of the Carlyle House, an […]
Finally getting around to blogging some of the craziness that was 2021! First up is Katie and Taylor’s classic Chicago engagement session. It’s full of iconic Chicago views, beautiful summer light, and of course a stunning couple! Katie looked so chic in her white silk dress. And Taylor was equally sharp in his summer blue […]

Sara and Jimmy may have won the record for bracing the elements on what I believe was the hottest day of the year in Chicago. But with how adorable these two are together, you’d never know that we were all sweating bullets! I absolutely loved their engagement session around the Chicago Museum Campus. We started […]

And the backgrounds are always full of texture. Even though we didn’t have any sunshine during Amyanne & Rich’s session, I’m […]

Dramatic clouds, pops of fall color, earthy neutrals, and a special appearance by the sweetest pup made Megan & Nick’s engagement session one for the books! Lincoln Park was looking as beautiful as ever with all the lovely rustic golden tones and some amazing pops of bright red and yellow. Early fall greens are nice, […]

Y’all I’m so excited to share this engagement session today! We’re taking a break from all the lovey Chicago sessions and heading about 90 miles away to South Bend, Indiana. Patrice and Ronny went to college across the street from each other and met while they were there. So it only made sense to photograph […]

One of the things I LOVE about Lincoln Park is the way the light hits. This location can take on a million different ‘looks’ based on time of year and what the sun is up to, meaning no two sessions end up looking the same! Which is SO much fun! There are always new angles […]

They are always so fun and relaxed and a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera before wedding day.
