Karen + Dan put their total trust in letting me choose the location for their engagement session. They didn’t want any of the typical spots around Chicago, and wanted their session to feel unique and true to them. I knew exactly where to take them, as I had been eyeing these spots for years around […]

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 […]

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 […]

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. […]

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 […]

Bri + John work downtown and live in the West Loop. As I always tell my couples, let’s focus your engagement session around where you spend your daily lives! So, we spent the session downtown near the riverwalk where they walk home from work, hanging at their condo, and playing pop-a-shot at their favorite bar […]

Sam reached out via Instagram and wanted to get some pictures taken of him and his partner, Jamie. Well, we had the best time exploring near the Michigan Avenue area – they let me have creative freedom as we just walked around looking for spots to shoot – completely unplanned. I think the photos turned […]

Can I check it off my bucket list if it wasn’t ever actually on my bucket list? Never in a million years would I imagine I’d get to set foot on WRIGLEY FIELD for a session… stand in center field where the likes of Albert Almora, Dexter Fowler, and even Javy Baez (when he gets […]

When Alyssa first reached out about having us photograph her wedding – she sent along a photo of her and her fiance, Chris, dancing at their friends’ wedding in 2016, “…also, this is one of my favorite pictures of us of all time…taken by either you or your husband at Danielle and Jim’s wedding…” Reading […]
