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!

I’m SO excited to finally share highlights from Sara and Jimmy’s intimate brunch wedding at Loft Lucia.

True story: I decided to write an entirely new post (the Top Ten Destinations post) because I had TOO many favorite engagement & anniversary photos from the year. Splitting it up by Chicago and non-Chicago helped me cheat the system a bit and show more of my faves 🙂 I loved exploring such beautiful spots […]
