{MaryEllen+Joe: Chihuahua Karaoke}
We all get a kick over those unexpected, slow-to-blossom, love stories like Jim and Pam in The Office (Sam and Diane, Mulder and Scully). MaryEllen and Joe worked side by side for a couple of years, little did they know that something good was brewing. At some point their shared love for Karaoke and beer […]
{Ashley+Ryan: Love In The Air}
It’s a classic girl meets boy story… but at 30,000 feet in the air. Ryan, a commercial airline pilot, and Ashley, an airline attendant. Whether it was the high altitude, the small spaces, the recycled air, maybe even a shared bag of peanuts (just kidding, but I sure do miss those things!), these two hit […]
{Caitlin+Brian: A Chicago Engagement}
Whether it was the excitement from the flag football game, or the drinks afterwards, Caitlin couldn’t help but notice her cute co-worker Brian. After a few weeks of playing on the team together, some harmless conversation and drinks with friends, they realized there may be more to it (she gave him a hug goodbye without […]

{Caroline & Kyler: “Be Awesome”}

{Jessica+Matt: They’re Getting Hitched!}
I have had the pleasure of knowing Jessica’s family for a couple of years (I photographed both of her brother’s weddings! You may remember Jason’s awesome mohawk, click here to refresh your memory), and those Turleys are FULL of personality! Needless to say, I love them all! Jess is no exception, and she will tell […]
{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 […]
{Ritika+Raktim: Windy City Romance}
This lovely couple wanted to take some photos around Chicago before their overseas wedding, I am so glad they contacted me! We met up in the financial district and lucked out with a gorgeous day, and don’t they make a stunning pair?! It couldn’t have been easier capturing them in several of my favorite city […]

Life is full of surprises, like when this Filipino girl met this Bulgarian guy… love! Their paths crossed in Chicago, and now they call this city home, along with their two adorable pugs. You never know what or who life will bring your way, but when you meet someone that makes your heart do somersaults […]
