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.

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.

In case you hadn’t noticed by my Instagram posts, at the end of August I went on a road trip with my college roommates. For 11 days we toured the western United States and a bit of Alberta, Canada. We covered ground in 10 states, 2 countries, and 6 national parks, making it an absolute […]
Welcome to round two of my Paris blogging! Today I’m sharing a few favorites from this elegant session at the Eiffel Tower. I mean, pinch me…could you ask for a more lovely background? Kennedy and Ty were doing a European getaway, and as luck would have it, our schedules aligned so that we’d all be in Paris at the […]
