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. 

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.

I’m keeping warm in my studio today by blogging some of my favorite weddings of the summer! Anna and Ken’s Promontory Point wedding was at the top of my list as it was one of the most emotional ceremonies I have seen in a long time. You may have come across one of their photos from […]

I love shooting neighborhood engagement sessions and Dani & Jovim’s shoot was no exception. Oftentimes couples are nervous in front of the camera, but after only a few minutes the two were laughing and letting their personalities shine through. We made a few stops around their neighborhood, starting on their block and even made a […]
