Once in a while, people remind me how much good there is in the world and it makes me remember how truly kind we can be to one another. I always say I have the best clients – they’re supportive, generous, and never cease to amaze me with their thoughtful words and actions. Well a […]

Happy New Year! Hopefully everyone had a fantastic time ringing in the new year last night and no one is feeling too hungover today. To kick off the new year, I figured I’d post my personal goals as well – since I posted my business goals yesterday. What better way to start the new year with a […]

Back in February of this year, I met with Anna + Reyahd at Haymarket Pub in the West Loop. We talked about their wedding planning and my photography over beers, wings, and pizza… (hellllllllo my type of clients!). It felt more like a night out with old friends than a business meeting – and that’s […]

The end of the year for many is a time for reflection… both good and bad. It’s a time when people look back on the year at their successes, their failures, their growths, their gains, their losses, and hopefully a few lessons learned. 2013 was all of those things for me and more. I’d be […]

  I have the best clients in the world. Honestly, I have been blessed to work with such incredible people – and I would not be where I am today without each and every one of them. For these exact reasons, I am BEYOND excited to give back to one lucky 2013 JT couple. Starting today […]

When you know, you know. That will forever be theme in my mind when thinking about Kristin and Ryan. First of all, Kristin and I met at a Starbucks that I frequent on Rush and Oak – it may be the comfy booths, the exposed brick walls, the hipster lounge music… okay maybe it’s the […]

Sixty-one emails. That’s how many times Laura and I emailed each other over the past year leading up to her and Bill’s wedding day. Not because I’m disorganized and not because she’s a bridezilla – but because we both wanted to make sure every single little detail was straightened out before the big day. And […]

Last night marked another first for JT photo, folks. After nearly 3 years of being in business, I participated in my first vendor event with other local Chicago businesses. The event was put on by Fatpour Tapworks in Wicker Park, and featured amazing vendors ranging from Natural Beauty Med Spa, Barre Bee Fit, True Blue Salon & Spa and of course yours […]

December’s Moment of the Month post is a little more personal than some of the other moments in past months have been. Don’t get me wrong – this is a beautiful moment for Laura + Bill. It was right after their first dance as husband and wife and you can just tell they’re so happy […]

What can I say about Bree + Trey’s wedding other than it was utterly perfect. Everything went so smoothly, right on time, and according to plan – which from what I learned during the vows and speeches – must be attributed to Bree’s organized spreadsheets. Bree + Trey might be one of the happiest, “in-love” […]
