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 […]
Spring engagement sessions in Chicago are not for the faint of heart. You have to be prepared for any temperature between 40 and 80 degrees, and you have to be ready to pivot your plans in a snap. Mary and Nate were ready for whatever the city threw at them and they absolutely rocked their […]
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 […]
Buckle up for this engagement session y’all because it is FIRE. Photographing these two lovebirds in my fave city was nothing short of magic. When couples want a photo session with the Eiffel Tower, it’s always fun starting at La Place du Trocadéro (it’s crazy popular for a reason). BUT here’s a little secret for […]
If you know me at all, you know that, second only to France, the mountains are the other place that make me feel alive. Having lived in Colorado for a stint, I definitely think I left part of my heart there, because my soul just sings whenever I return. So when I connected with Karen & […]
Y’all. All I can say about this session is WOW. Charley & Nick brought their A-FREAKING-GAME. Between their chic black and white attire and the killer views from the Ambassador Rooftop, this session was classy with a capital C. And as stunning as these two were, they were just as sweet, if not sweeter. I […]
Chicago has been pretty slow getting on board with the seasons this year, but WOW did this session scream spring! We had a looming threat of rain the entire session, but the colors more than made up for it. Lincoln Park was in full spring green mode, and Marcella and Alex’s bold, cheerful colored outfits […]
This engagement session was a particularly special one for me as I had the privilege of having friends in front of my camera! It’s always an honor when your friends trust you with capturing such a special time in their lives. For Matt and Teray’s session, Chicago finally got with the times and gave us […]
