Chicago has been full of unpredictable weather days. It has been 80 degrees one day, and 50 the next. Luckily, this was one of those perfect days that we happened to have schedule Dani + Jim’s Engagement Session on 🙂 On this beautiful evening, Dani, Jim, and myself explored the gorgeous Morton Arboretum. I’d been […]

So, as you’ll probably be able to tell from the photos – we had a blast. Erin, Corey, and myself explored the Chicago Riverwalk and finished the engagement session in West Town at The Dawson. Sidenote: anyone who hasn’t been to The Dawson, go. Right now. Make a reservation. Talk to one of the many helpful […]

I’ve know Siobhan + Jim for about a year now. We met last year on a ski trip in Big Sky, Montana. So when the 2016 trip was planned for Park City, Utah and after the two just got engaged – we knew we had to take some snowy mountain engagement photos out west. I’ll […]

Every now and then, I like to second shoot for other photographers to get a new perspective on things, see how others are getting it done, and all around have fun shooting without the pressure of working a wedding as a lead shooter (real talk: love all my couples but sometimes it is stressful trying to […]

Alexis + Kevin met when they were just kids – and Kevin immediately said “I’m gonna marry you one day.” And although the timing wasn’t right for a few years, eventually the stars aligned and they began fulfilling Kevin’s prediction. So a few weeks ago, I flew to New York to meet these two lovebirds […]

You know when you see a couple in love and their bodies move whimsically around each other in perfect unison? Their smiles not only grin from ear to ear, but seem to connect into one collective symbol of pure happiness between them? That’s Kelly + Brian. Their effortless style and easy going personalities made this California vineyard engagement […]

A few weeks ago I met Kim + Avram in Phoenix, AZ at Papago Park’s Hole in the Rock. I’d photographed here earlier in the year, and it was so much fun to come back and explore the area with a completely new couple. Kim + Avram were super sweet and fun and had actually lived […]

What an incredible year it has been. As always, it flew by and I can’t believe there’s only a few weeks left of 2015. I was privileged enough to work with some of the most amazing people. Couples who I now call friends. People that I’ve laughed and cried with. Brides I have calmed during […]

I don’t normally photograph families, but I just coudln’t resist shooting baby Jordyn, my cousin, and her husband during my visit in Arizona. Jordy in that denim shirt and boots…. the cutest!! Blogged by popular demand, here are a few of my favorite shots of this beautiful family. Thanks for having me as a guest […]

It’s that time of year again where comfort meeting style is a necessity. So I teamed up with Chicago Fashion Bloggers, Ticket & Tag, to get some inspiration on what they’re wearing this snowy season. Here’s what they came up with: Jess (pictured below): “My Bang Bang outfit was inspired by my need to wear cozy […]
