Stacie & Vladik- A Risk Worth Taking
After a few unsuccessful dates (or maybe more than a few), Vladik decided to do something bold. He logged into his J-date account and sent a message to EVERY girl with a profile matching his age group, determined to pursue the first person that responded. Guess who sent him a message just minutes later? Not […]
Jaime + Aaron
I have to thank Kara Superfine of Bliss Weddings and Events for introducing me to this adorable couple! Not only do Jaime and Aaron have the best smiles (Aaron is a dentist after all!), but they are very well matched. Her beautiful long hair and fantastic freckles with his boyish charm and blue eyes make […]
Trudie and Mark- Soulmates!
I met Trudie and Mark at the Paris club this past winter during a bridal fair. When they walked by my table we both did a double take, there was something so familiar about them. It’s one of those moments you can’t quite put your finger on, an instant kinship felt with someone you just […]

I was like a kid in a candy store… beautiful space and a beautiful couple- pretty freakin’ perfect! Monica looked stunning, and Ben cleaned up quite […]
Hillary and Matt- Sky Blue Sky
Whether it was the warm summer days or the good music floating along the breeze, taking a job at the Ravinia a few summers ago turned out to be a very good decision. As Wilco jammed on stage there was a new love blossoming, Hillary and Matt were falling for each other. They are a […]
Kristine + Steve- Part 2
I had to share a few more photos of Kristine and Steve… we met up for a second time to get a few more photos around downtown as the sun set, the results are great! Can’t wait to celebrate with these two! I love these colors, Kristine picked out terrific outfits. It was the perfect […]
Kristine + Steve- Love and Peppermint Lattes
Kristine and Steve are really special, they treasure each other immensely and the time spent with one another. It seems fitting that when Steve prepared to ask Kristine to marry him, he wanted to go above and beyond. He had been very creative with their first date, so this had to be really great… when […]
