Lauren and Leif are planning their Michigan wedding while living and working in Chicago. When we talked engagement session, I was praying for an opportunity to present itself so that I could shoot it in Chicago. And voila! I was off to Chicago to shoot a wedding with one of my favorite wedding photographers and […]

Soooo these guys are getting married tomorrow! Last fall we had so much fun shooting their engagement session At Addison Oaks right here in my own town. I don’t know how I let this one slip through the cracks but here’s a peek at this gorgeous couple. I’m so excited to shoot their wedding tomorrow […]

Weddings are romantic. Weekend after weekend I witness first hand a couple on their first day of marriage. But what I also get to witness is the effect weddings have on the friends and family that attend. Couples snuggle in a little closer. They dance a little longer.

She was surrounded by her beautiful bridesmaids who, along with Marissa, were a true delight all day and so […]

Aleesa is this tiny human with hair that makes me jealous. Her freckles make her look like she is kissed daily by the sun. And I love her silly disposition that makes being with her just easy. Adam stands two heads above Aleesa. But, I personally love being vertically challenged. I loved watching them banter […]

I met Cara + Chris at Stoneycreek Metro Park for their engagement session recently and we were in luck with one of the loveliest evenings! We all know it was either too wet or too hot in the month of June so we were pretty pumped. Unfortunately, so were the bees. There is this beautiful […]

Krystal and Matthew’s engagement session is a bit a-typical for me. You see, they have this insanely gorgeous and feisty little red-head (just like her mama) and I had the pleasure of photographing them together. My family sessions are reserved for close friends/family and if you’re really lucky I’ll throw in a few days of […]
