2020 has brought its fair share of hardships. From bush fires in Australia, to Covid-19, to murder hornets, to social injustices (I think it’s important to note here that we fully support the Black Lives Matter movement and encourage everyone to continue to listen and learn with us) — it has been hard to stay […]

We were lucky enough to get this Engagement Session in right before the shelter in place started… and it was the perfect session to hop around to some fun Logan Square spots. Austin + Brett’s favorite, Hopewell Brewing, was the starting place with their pup, Kaiju, before heading to Logan Hardware for some games, and […]

I spent Leap Year morning with David + Michael (and 100 other couples) at City Hall (oh the days before social distancing!). We waited in line, chatted about their decision to elope and escape to Portugal for a week, got them married with the kindest judge, walked along the riverfront, and ended the morning with […]

Today, we’re looking back into early 2020, when we were still hugging, celebrating weddings, and social distancing zoom calls weren’t a thing. This one holds a special place in my heart as it’s the wedding of my sister-in-law and new brother-in-law, Jolyn + Michael. I was lucky enough to be in the wedding party, so […]

More than ever, these images are probably looking more and more familiar. Hanging at home on the couch, drinking your favorite cocktails, spending extra quality time with the fur babies. The shelter in place has given us all extra time with our loved ones/roommates–and I’ve seen people getting creative with ways to stay busy. Taking […]

It feels a little odd to be posting pretty pictures of weddings given the current state of emergency, but I’m choosing to continue celebrating love and life. I hope at least one person finds these photos uplifting and a breath of fresh air amongst never-ending news reports and pleads for people to stay home/isolated. For […]

During this time of social distancing and quarantine – what better time to feature Sarah + Matt – our team captured their engagement session at home relaxing and along the nearby 606 trail (something we’ll all be doing over the next few weeks!). Not only do we LOVE when couples let us capture their real […]

Mal is one of the many talented folks over at Kehoe Designs – so when she reached out about her wedding, I just couldn’t wait to start snapping pics. We shot their engagement session at one of their favorites spots – Fig & Olive, and then walked around Gold Coast to the Viceroy Hotel rooftop. […]

Matt and Kelsie had Italian class together their sophomore year in college. It was a small class but they didn’t engage much directly. They were both out one night watching the Blackhawks with friends at Kincade’s in Lincoln Park, when they recognized each other from UW, started talking, and stayed connected from then on. Fast […]

Becky + Tom are getting married in just a couple months so it was about dang time we blogged their engagement session from last year. They’re working with JTP team photographer, Nicki, and going through their photos made me SO sad I couldn’t be there myself! I can tell these two had a blast during […]
