{Little Zoe}
I had the pleasure of working with Courtney a few years ago, and getting a chance to reconnect with her and see her in her new role as a mom was so fun! Her daughter Zoe is absolutely adorable (just see below!), she smiles and laughs without coercion, she plays with the cats (even though […]
{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 […]
{Lara+Matt: Love and Sunshine}
A physicist met an artist and fell in love… Lara and Matt are super sweet. They hold hands, they make each other blush. This sun-drenched twilight photo session couldn’t have been more perfect, from sunflower fields to a beautiful sunset. I love each and every photo, these two are so wonderful! Lara brought a blown-glass […]
{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 […]
{Alissa+Mark: A Newsworthy Engagement}
Alissa and Mark have a lot of charm, not to mention sparkling smiles and amazing personalities. In fact, when Mark looks at Alissa with a grin and a twinkle in his eye, you can tell they are TV material (he is a news anchor for WAND, he went all-out with the proposal and popped the […]
{Maria+Nick: Wrigleyville romance}
One fateful night at the historic Pippin’s Tavern, Maria was introduced to Nick. This intro happened right after a drink was spilled all over her dress, and as she stumbled over her words trying to explain the unfortunate wet spot he knew he was already intrigued. In fact it didn’t take long at all for […]
