Kassie and Ron’s Westin River North wedding was such a blast to photograph! After shooting their Belmont Harbor engagement session, I knew their event would be full of laughs and fun. We started at the Westin for getting ready photos of the couple and their friends. 

Hye Young and Sung Ho’s wedding was so much fun to photograph. The April weather was all over the place and it rained, snowed and was completely sunny throughout the day. Luckily we had made an indoor plan and started at the Chicago Botanic Garden for some indoor portraits. 

I had such a wonderful time with Dana and Patrick on their engagement session so I knew their Spiaggia wedding would be a blast! They both have a great sense of humor and a love for photography which made it really fun to find and create some great moments and portraits for the two of […]

I was so excited for Katy and Steve’s Chicago Botanic Garden wedding. I had only been to the venue once before and loved the space and all of the beautiful areas in the gardens.

Ali and Antonio’s Garfield Park Conservatory wedding was truly a reflection of their personalities and love for one another. The event really showcased their interests, including a deep love for music and literature. It was an incredibly hot day which made it a bit of a challenge but everyone was in high sprits and we were able […]

Sitting down to chat with Care and Rick for the first time was incredibly fun. They met in the Peace Corps, were dating long distance ever since and had lots of fantastic travel stories. I was excited for their Ravenswood Event Center wedding since I had been there several times before yet never for a wedding.

Vanessa and Owen’s Kitchen Chicago wedding was such a treat to photograph. They are both travelers, Vanessa planned her wedding while doing a teaching/research position at a university in Japan, and they incorporated their love of maps and trinkets from their adventures into many of the details of their day. 

When working with couples for their engagement sessions, I try to find a place that has some extra meaning to them. We had discussed several options for Charlene and Chris’s shoot but decided on doing a Ping Tom Park engagement session since that’s where Chris proposed.

Conor and Ian’s Chez Chicago wedding was one of my favorites from 2015. After getting to know them both and spending some time with them for their home engagement session, I knew it would be hard to hold back the laughter during their day.

Kassie and Ron were a ton of fun to photograph and I had a blast working with them for their Belmont Harbor engagement session. We had to reschedule a few times due to the weather but we finally got a nice, warm day to shoot.
