A little glimpse into what Kate and Tom’s stunning fall wedding felt like!!! 🍂✨

The warmest tones, the sweetest looks into each other’s eyes, and the happiest guests getting to witness their commitment. Watching two families come together to celebrate a love that is going to last a lifetime… incredible!!!! I mean, the hug down the aisle from Kate’s dad?! Beyond precious!!!

It was such a gift that Kate and Tom allowed me to document their day and put all their trust into me (and their killer vendor team!!!) to ensure their wedding truly reflected them. It’s an honor I care about very deeply, making sure your memories are captured and preserved forever.

A peek into Jess and Logan’s sweet, sunny spring wedding day!!!! 🥂🤍 

Their celebration was truly something beautiful to witness. The love they have for each other, the foundation their relationship is built on, and all the people they have rooting for them made this day absolutely unforgettable.

It was one of those weddings that deeply reminded me just how important this work is and how meaningful it is to capture all the emotions, feelings, and joy of the day for my couples (and their families!!!).

Your love deserves to be documented in a way that showcases who the TWO of you truly are. Reach out if you want images that genuinely reflect your relationship.

Paulina and Jake!!!!!

Where to even begin with them?! Probably the insane amount of laughter we had as we bopped around downtown for their photos. They’re just the kind of couple where no matter what they’re doing, they have a good time doing it together.

It is so clear how deeply these two are meant to do life side by side, and I truly cannot wait to celebrate them this July!

you, your people, dessert, and a damn good time

because sometimes that’s all you really need!!!!!

Summer, the gardens, you in a white dress… you with your favorite person… you ALSO getting married???

Yeah… sounds like a pretty perfect day to me.

A little secret garden moment in Chicago?? Always a YES.

Sometimes it’s just you, your favorite person, and an undying commitment to each other.

Elopements truly remind you what marriage is about. It’s not always about the celebration, the white dress, or the guest count. It’s about you and your person choosing to stand by each other’s side for the rest of time. Nothing fancy, just a promise.

No matter how big or small the occasion, you deserve to have these memories preserved. There is a reason every photographer has an “investment” tab on their website. It’s because that’s truly what your photos are.

These photos are your first family heirloom. They will live on in your family long after you’re gone. They hold real value.

Emily and David are ENGAGED!!!!!

The sweetest, windiest, most perfect springtime proposal for these two. And having all their family there for the surprise… iconic!!!

As a proposal photographer, I cannot even begin to describe how fun it is to plan these moments for future brides. There’s something so special about bringing a partner’s vision to life and getting to watch it all unfold. Plus, the excitement and day-of nerves… a thrill like no other, I promise LOL!

All your big moments deserve to be documented. I will scream this from the rooftops.

You don’t get to hit a redo button on life, but you do get to look back on the memories. A little snippet in time to remember all the feelings, all the love, and all the excitement!!!!

Celebrating your marriage at one of your favorite restaurants in Chicago >>>>>

There’s something about restaurant receptions that feel like the ultimate dinner party. Intimate, personal, and effortlessly unique with a menu that everyone will actually rave about. Cafe Ba Ba Reba absolutely checks all those boxes for me (at least LOL).

More celebrations like this, please!!!!

Where do I even begin with Sarah + Nick’s wedding day?!! 🖤

Maybe with the overflowing joy Sarah carried from start to finish, or the way Nick looked at her as she walked up to the altar. Every part of their day was perfectly tailored to them, their relationship, and their favorite people. And just wait until you see the iconic surprises they had in store for their guests at the reception!! Part II coming soon!!
