Kyley & Nick soaked in every moment of their newlyweds’ portraits before heading off to cocktail hour and celebrating with their guests ✨

They were so sweet together during portrait time - relaxed, romantic, and fully present with each other. Between the charming chapel, bridge, pond, and beautiful landscaping around the property, we had so many lovely spots for both their wedding party photos and just-married portraits.

There’s something so special about that little window of time right after the ceremony, when everything finally starts to sink in and couples get a few moments to simply be together 🤍

Kristina and Iris’ wedding had it all: horse-drawn rides to the ceremony site, farm animal friends, and a whole lot of love 🌈

After getting ready in a charming farmhouse owned by friends who have become family, Kristina and Iris exchanged vows overlooking the farm where their love story began. The hill was also where they got engaged, and their ceremony was filled with huge smiles, happy tears, laughter, and so many personal touches.

Once they were officially newlyweds, everyone climbed aboard horse-drawn rides back down to the farm for an epic backyard celebration. Guests enjoyed cocktails on the lawn, yard games, play sets, a bonfire, some of the best barbecue we’ve ever had at a wedding, and a live band that kept the party going all night.

The laughter, the hugs, the joy... everything about Kristina and Iris’ day felt genuine, heartfelt, and completely them 💕

Spending golden hour with Rachel and Santi at Grant Park’s Seven Bridges trail and beach was such a joy. Before their session, Santi shared that one of the things he loves most is the way sunlight lights up Rachel’s face 🥹 It was easy to see exactly what he meant- she was glowing!

It was wonderful getting to know them and hearing about their wedding, upcoming family visits, travels, and all the excitement surrounding their growing family. The connection they share is easy to see, and it’s clear they’re going to be amazing parents 💕

Pregnancy is such a unique season of life. There is so much anticipation, excitement, planning, and change packed into those nine months. Before long, this chapter will become stories you’ll tell your child someday 🫶

We love documenting these fleeting seasons of life. Whether it’s celebrating the anticipation of parenthood through a maternity session, welcoming your baby with a relaxed in-home newborn session, or visiting us in the studio for newborn portraits, we’re honored to help families preserve memories they’ll treasure for years to come.

With a pond and fountains as their backdrop, Kyley & Nick couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day for their outdoor wedding at a family friend’s property in Beloit. Large shade trees, sunshine, a perfect breeze, and even ceremony benches handcrafted from reclaimed doors made the setting feel especially personal ☀️

They started the day getting ready at Kyley’s parents’ home, as well as a historic schoolhouse and chapel not far from the ceremony site. We always love discovering unique locations that help tell a couple’s story!

After the ceremony, guests enjoyed signature cocktails, the cutest custom napkins, and an evening celebrating with family and friends. Stay tuned for their stunning portraits ✨

Toasts and laughter while getting ready are always a favorite part of the wedding day 🥂

Some of our favorite wedding morning moments happen before anyone walks down the aisle - when the music is playing, dresses are being zipped, ties are being adjusted, and the room is buzzing with excitement.

Whether it’s a champagne pop, a spontaneous toast, or a round of inside jokes that leaves everyone laughing, these are the moments that make the day feel like your wedding. The nerves, the happy tears, the belly laughs... it all becomes part of the story of your wedding day.

And getting ready spaces with lots of personality make these moments even more fun to photograph. Historic charm, beautiful natural light, or a cozy atmosphere can create the perfect backdrop for the candid moments that often become some of a couple’s favorite photos ✨

Some engagement sessions just feel like spending an evening with old friends, and that was definitely the case with Dan and Nancy’s session along the Marsupial Bridge and Beerline Trail, some favorite spots near their home 💞

These two love creating things together, whether that’s cooking a meal, tackling a new project, traveling somewhere new, or settling in for a video game night with friends. Nancy’s creative energy shows up in everything from crafting and jewelry making to collecting Pokemon cards, while Dan loves bringing ideas to life with his 3D printer, laser cutter, and endless curiosity for how things work.

We spent some time exploring the riverfront and capturing the easy connection they share. The way they laugh together and genuinely enjoy each other’s company made every photo feel effortless.

We can’t wait to celebrate with them again soon at their Hubbard Park Wedding! 💍✨

Whether she’s exploring new places around the world or working to create a more equitable future for children and families, Kendra leads with curiosity, compassion, and purpose. It was great getting to know her and meeting up at the studio for her graduation portraits! 🎓

Kendra just graduated from Marquette University with a degree in Education Policy and Leadership. She said, “My college journey has been guided by a deep commitment to supporting children and families from underrepresented communities. Through my education, I have discovered that learning is not only about personal success but also about creating opportunities for others. I aspire to use my knowledge and experiences to advocate for equitable education and resources for those who are often overlooked. By engaging with communities and understanding their challenges, I aim to become a meaningful agent of change. Ultimately, my goal is to help build a more inclusive and just educational environment where every child and family has the opportunity to thrive and have voice.”

She credits Dr. Ellwood, Dr. Dimmitt, Dr. Ventura, and Dr. Byrd for helping her understand educational systems and how meaningful change happens when communities are centered and heard.
