{Yiming and Justin: A Snowy Engagement}
As I headed out to meet with Yiming and Justin it started to snow… it snowed and snowed, then snowed some more. But that didn’t deter us! They were getting ready for their wedding in China at the end of this month so they really wanted some Chicago photos. Although chilly temperatures and melted snow […]
{Becky+John: Be Happy}
This pair has me by the heartstrings… I seriously can’t get enough of their wonderful energy. There is a sweetness that resonates with them, and it has me grinning from ear to ear. Yes, I sound like a stalker, but I love their love and there is nothing better than getting to tell their love […]
{Lauren+Parker: A Chicago Engagement}
Lauren and Parker appreciate the finer things in life… great food and drinks, and of course each other! Whether we are chatting about a new restaurant opening or a recent rock concert, they are always a blast to be around. They are funny, sweet, and downright adorable! We explored some Wicker Park locations, made it […]
{Carly & Scott: A Modern Romance}
Carly and Scott are electric. There’s a serious energy between these two, it’s quite possible they knew it was forever when they first met 6 years ago! You could say opposites attract… Carly is sweet and a little soft spoken (not to mention gorgeous, and just look at that BHLDN dress!!), and Scott is boisterous […]
{Margaret+Jerel: A Fall Engagement}
Fall is the perfect time of year to fall in love all over again… the dreamy sunlight and crunch of leaves underfoot, the way the air smells, snuggling up to stay warm, etc. It’s the best, and made even better with some Pinkberry! So that’s what we did, we started our photo session with the […]
{Leah & Peter: Love at Room 1520}
Hooray for modern dating! Not only did Leah and Peter meet each other via match.com, but they are a perfect match indeed (their wedding day was exactly 3 years after their first date!). I have never met a couple that makes each other giggle like these two. They are totally smitten and full of joy, […]
{Alicia+Peter: Chicago Love}
One week after Peter proposed, I received an excited email from Alicia inquiring about a Chicago engagement session, my favorite! Not only did they want to explore the city, they also had some creative locations on their list of ideas. Their wedding next year is on the East Coast so they really wanted to showcase […]
{Kathy & Lee: Sunflowers and Hot Chocolate}
These two are crazy cute… they have the best chemistry and WOW what a striking pair. (With their good looks and especially Kathy’s beautiful blue eyes, it’s hard not to get a little woozy around them!) Needless to say, I was very excited to photograph these love birds. We had some beautiful sunlight down by […]
{Kristie+Jun: A Courthouse wedding}
There’s nothing better to remind you what it’s all about like a simple courthouse wedding. You+Me=We! Kristie and Jun decided they were ready to get married, but wanted to skip the wedding. So to the courthouse we went! I was so glad they contacted me to document this awesome day, it was incredibly special to […]
{Caroline & Sean}
They had me at “Oasis.” Not only are these two adorable and funny, but as Sean spoke about his favorite band and the three of us ordered a round of drinks I knew I was in for a treat. They tease and finish each other’s sentences, they laugh often and like to cuddle. Caroline talked […]
