Christine + Tom met at a friend’s surprise party in September of 2012. Their wedding day was a few weeks ago on a perfect Saturday in Chicago.

Seven years ago, when I started on my photography journey, I needed to practice. This girl, my bff since we were 13 – stepped in as my model. That was the first time I photographed her. Now, as we’re both approaching 31 this week – I photographed her once again, this time – with a […]

Alex and Meghan’s love first began over their love for accounting. The two first met as audit interns at Deloitte during the summer of 2009. While each of them thought the other one was cute, it was not until 4 years later would they begin dating. It all began with the help of their friend […]

Melissa + Austin met TEN YEARS ago at Indiana University, so this one has been in the making for quite some time now 🙂 They were most excited to spend the day with their ‘people’ – their closest friends and family all surrounding them while they promised to spend the rest of their lives together.

Priscilla + Ernesto call Chicago home.

i first met crystal + carlos back in 2015 during their engagement session. we had a fantastic time at the lincoln park south pond, but they ended up hiring a larger photography company to shoot their wedding because it made more sense for them at the time (no hard feelings at all, I promise!). fast […]

A True Tinder love story! Mara + Jason both right swiped, had their very first date, and got married exactly three years later to the day. They still hold the tradition of going back to Bar Louie every year for their anniversary. Another tradition they hold is taking a trip between their birthdays every year. Their first year […]

Even though Kim + Kyle both went to the University of Wisconsin La Crosse for 4 years, it wasn’t until PT school that the universe decided to bring them together. It was then that they discovered their numerous mutual friends – which made conversations feel like they’d known each other for years. After a car […]
