I hadn’t photographed an Art Institute of Chicago wedding before but it’s one of my favorite places in the city and I couldn’t wait for Yao and Sei Hei’s event this June. They really wanted some nice, documentary images of their wedding so we were a perfect fit! 

After working with Charlene and Chris on their engagement session, I knew their Blumen Gardens wedding would be even better! They are both such sweet and caring people and I had a hard time editing down their images, I loved so many! 

After chatting with Jennifer and Frank about location ideas, I knew a Belmont Harbor engagement session would be perfect for them. They wanted to incorporate their adorable golden retriever Colby, and Lake Michigan, so it was a great fit. 

Sisi and Chen’s event was my first Greenhouse Loft wedding so I was excited to finally work in their beautiful, open space. Their engagement session was so lovely and they were instantly comfortable in front of the camera (or at least convinced me!) so I knew I’d be able to capture a lot of nice emotions […]

I love shooting at unique venues outside of the city and Amanda and Blake’s Armour House wedding was no exception! The buildings on the Lake Forest Academy campus are stunning and lend themselves to be perfect backdrops for a wedding. After working with the couple on their engagement session, I knew their wedding would be a […]

I was anxiously awaiting Jessica and Mike’s University of Chicago wedding since I’d never photographed there before and knew it would be a stunning backdrop for their event.

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.
