Sandy & Corey- engaged!
Whether it was the after-hours beer or the life size Jenga, their post-work gatherings offered more than just good times with friends. Sandy and Corey both found their life long drinking buddies! I am so glad that I met these two (through mutual friends/clients- the awesome Leah and Shawn), you could say after three hours […]
{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 […]
Baby Mateo & Baby Marcelo
What’s cuter than one little baby?? Two little babies! I met Nick and Ricardo at a wedding in September, it wasn’t until Ricardo left early that I discovered they had a lot on their plate- raising twin boys! Out came the cell phone and soon we were gushing over their photos, they were still so […]
Baby Ethan
I had the pleasure of photographing Krista and Tim’s wedding a couple of years ago at Architectural Artifacts… now their family has a new member. Meet baby Ethan, what a doll! He inherited his parent’s beautiful blue eyes, and perhaps a bit of his dad’s seriousness (it wasn’t easy coaxing a smile out of this […]
Baby Olivia, take two
One the best, most amazing, perks of this job is maintaining relationships with people by continually documenting the best moments of their lives. What an awesome responsibility! I knew Sara and Matt before Olivia was even a twinkle in their eye, and now she is getting so big! You may remember this little nugget of […]
Elizabeth & Karl, on-stage romance
I love a good story, and these two have quite a doozy. Imagine two actors being cast as man and wife in a play, and then playing the same husband/wife roles in another play, and another… talk about foreshadowing! Maybe the directors saw something they didn’t, and finally Karl made a move and they gave […]
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.” […]
Trudie+Mark
Trudie is pure grace, she seemed to be walking on air from the beginning to the very end of her wedding day. Mark was overjoyed and could barely keep his contentment from bubbling over. They were so excited to get married, you couldn’t help but get caught up in the moment right along with them! […]
Darlene+Bobby
Sometimes the world is just small enough to make it possible for two people from very different places to meet and fall in love. When this gorgeous Filipino girl met this strapping Bulgarian boy everything fell into place. Even though English is not Bobby’s first language, he knew just the right words to say when […]
Erika+Jim
You never know how you’ll feel on your wedding day. All the excitement rushes to the surface and it’s hard not to be anxious, wedding butterflies are inevitable. As Erika put her dress on she felt them fluttering in her stomach (she was so excited to see Jim!), and even her dad tried to fight […]
