I first met Amy over facetime and I could tell from that call that we were definitely going to get along. She is such a sweetheart and together, she and James fit perfectly together. They love the outdoors (James proposed in a meadow after a four wheeler ride) so naturally, their engagement photos doubled as […]

The first time I ever did a day in the life session was with this beautiful family, and it was so much fun that we did it again the next year! Then, I moved out of Chicago to Madison and it’s been a few years since I’ve seen them, but was so happy that we […]

The first time I talked with Margarite, it was over Skype. She and Willem live in Connecticut and were planning their wedding from afar. Margarite’s family is from South Africa, and a lot of Willem’s is in Wisconsin, so they decided to get married at the Black Earth campus of the Aldo Leopold Nature Center. It’s […]

I don’t think Molly and Chase could be any cuter. For real. I almost didn’t get to do an engagement session with these two, because they had a friend take their engagement photos previously, BUT I convinced them that it would be good to take advantage of the complimentary engagement session with me to get […]

I love photographing at Olbrich Gardens, so I was thrilled when Andee sugested this as a location for their engagement session! There’s just so much to work with, and in the fall it’s beautiful. Andee has two adorable girls, Harper and Emmy, so of course they came along for some photos too (and were seriously […]

I went to college with Brittany, and when she messaged me about photographing her and Nick’s wedding, I was so excited! We met up in Cantigny Park about an hour outside of Chicago for their engagement session, and it was seriously so gorgeous. Everywhere we turned, I wanted to take a picture! Can’t wait for […]

Last week I met up with Rebecca and Luke on a crisp, sunny morning in Chicago to take some engagement photos in an area of the city that these two love. We wandered around Lincoln Square taking photos under the train tracks, with some pretty sweet murals, and ended the morning at a nearby park. […]

I was just planning on finishing up a few of Hope and Jason’s Chicago engagement photos for their wedding website and somehow found myself doing an entire blog post. They were just too pretty! And cool… just wait, you’ll see what I mean. We got started a little bit late, but it was meant to […]

Marisa and Justin are so perfect together, I had so much fun capturing that during their brisk, Wisconsin engagement session! We started out at the Capitol and then headed over to the Arboretum to end. I always love shooting at the Arboretum because there are so many pretty options. I can’t wait for their wedding […]

There are no words for Claire and Kevin’s amaaaazing Madison wedding. Seriously guys, I think this is the longest blog post I’ve ever done… I’m sorry but I just couldn’t decide and make it shorter. So you just have to look at lots of pretty pictures 😉 Enjoy! Vendor Love! Ceremony: Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church | Reception: […]
