{Tess+Nate: Love at Salvage One}
It’s easy to like Tess and Nate, in fact you’ll find yourself smitten very quickly (I might have a bit of a crush!). They are wonderful, adorable, funny… just plain lovely. The recurring theme of their wedding was “best day ever,” how perfect! And it was too, from the hilarious wedding party photos around the […]
{Stacie+Vladik: Winter Wedding at the Westin}
Stacie and Vladik did not feel the slightest chill on their wedding day, they were so caught up in all the love that surrounded them! Not only did Stacie wear the most amazing smile from start to finish (never before have I seen a bride smile perfectly in EVERY SINGLE PHOTO!!), Vladik even indulged in […]
103 stories in the air….
This surprise proposal took place at the amazing skydeck in the Willis Tower, shortly after closing. Not only did Bill arrange this all the way from California, but Jessie had no idea that their Chicago “tour” would lead to Bill standing in a window 103 stories up with a ring in his pocket! Obviously I […]
Kate and Jimmy
These two have found the winning ticket! Not only were they troopers to venture out on a very cold day for our engagement session, but they politely ignored the pockets-full of tissues and various ugly flu-symptoms that I was suffering that day. I was running a fever and was barely able to talk to them […]
Sharon & Tom- A Worldly Engagement
Out of the 7 billion people in this world, somehow this Mid-western girl met this Irish boy. They fell in love and moved to Dubai. To be fair moving to Dubai was job-related, but what better proof of love than moving to the other side of the world to be together?! Luckily I was able […]
Annie and Fidel- he put a ring on it!
I have known fellow photographer Michael for a few years (his newest project is taking Chicago by storm, Potluck Creative), and when his sister got engaged she gave me a call. I was so excited! Not only are Annie and Fidel adorable (and oh-so-easy on the eyes, not to mention naturals in front of the […]
{Amy+Brandon: Love at the Hotel Allegro}
If there is one person that can talk Brandon into just about anything, it’s Amy. But she didn’t have to talk him into falling for her, he was a goner the moment they met. Tall, blond, blue-eyed, and funny… he was ready to sign up! Their friends are pretty great too, in fact at the […]
Kristy & Matt- Volleyball and Anniversary Cake
Kristy and Matt met in college while playing together on a volleyball team. After being friends for quite some time, Matt asked her out on a real “date.” They stopped by the delicious Annette’s Italian Ice in Lincoln Park to start things off, Matt must have seen the foreshadowing when Kristy ordered the “anniversary cake.” […]
Hillary+Matt
“I’m gettin’ married in the morning, the bells are gonna chime, get me to the church on time!…” Hillary and Matt are a fabulous pair… from discussions of music or alternative medicine, to crazy dancing and drinking Malort, these two always have fun. Hillary got ready at the very cool Ruby Room spa, and as […]
Jen+Matt
Jen and Matt have a lot of history together. They have seen each other through the formative years, lots of schooling, and now the launch of their careers. Sticking together as you embark on life’s adventures can create a wonderful foundation for a relationship, Jen and Matt have exactly that. Their bond is unbreakable, and […]
