The BRIX Wedding // Angelika & Randy
Angelika & Randy know how to weather a storm. Luckily we were "trapped" at The Brix when dodging most of the rain drops last fall.

Morton Arboretum Engagement // Laura & Jon
My sweet, cuddle, adorable, magical humans. Laura and Jon met at University of Illinois. They were in the marching band together and "remember that time at band-camp".... no no just kidding. These two are hikers, nature lovers & music connoisseurs. Laura and Jon wanted to capture their engagement photos at The Morton Arboretum because Jon proposed there. They were so adventurous and patient with all my "OMG this spot" need to stop a million times along our time together.

Jenny + Andrew's Wedding // Warehouse 109, Plainfield IL
You can always get a feel of how the day is going to go when you walk into the bridal suite. Jenny's crew was finishing up their hair and makeup while listening to good tunes and sipping on champagne. That about sums up the day. Relaxed, beautiful weather, great people, libations and fantastic music. I had the pleasure of spending time with these two fabulous people in February for their engagement session in downtown Naperville where we bonded over smoking meats, whiskey a

Cantigny Park, Wheaton Engagement // Krystal + Lukas
I swear. This May has been tricky! Rain, Rain and oh yea, MORE Rain! Krystal and Lukas were nice enough to flex their shoot schedule with me from a Saturday evening to an early start Sunday morning of Mother's Day. I'd say it worked out well. She's a runner and he's her biggest cheerleader.... among many other things. Together they are adorable! I am so looking forward to their wedding May 2020 at Ashley Farm! Check out their 7am engagement session at the beautiful Cantigny

Naperville Engagement // Shauna + Kevin + Charlie
Talk about a 3rd wheel.... Charlie couldn't be cuter!! He was my little helper -- collecting pine cones and directing Shauna and Kevin with huge sticks. We also made faces at the happy couple while they were being "mushy". Such a fun little adventure with this crew at The Springbrook Prairie Preserve in Naperville. So looking forward to their wedding Feb 2020! #engaged #napervilleengagement #engagementphotography #chicagoengagement #engagement #napervilleweddingphotographer

Naperville Engagement // Jenny + Andrew
In honor of this sweet couple's big day tomorrow, I am happy to share some of the fabulous engagement session images we were able to capture. Jenny and Andrew wanted to wander downtown Naperville with a couple breaks built in. Andrew was recovering from a broken ankle, so of course we obliged with a stop at Hotel Indigo's bar and then on to The Craftsmen for a bourbon break.... 'cause, why not?! Jenny and Andrew are my first wedding of the 2019 season and I am so excited to

Midlane Country Club Wedding // Megan + Dan
It is always special to be able to work with your clients early on in their wedding adventure. I had the pleasure playing and planning with Megan and Dan for almost a year. By the time the big day rolled around, we were in sync and ready to have some fun. Megan and Dan's wedding day was extraordinarily hot for late September and those mosquitos were looking to go out of season with full bellies! I honestly don't remember their portraits. I mean. I know they turned out great

Two Brothers Roundhouse Wedding // Sarah + Bridget
Ahhh Sarah and Bridget. Let me just tell you... these two clean up well! HAHA. All of my meetings with these two ladies have been going to or coming from Rugby. The usual sportswear attire, a few fresh bruises here or there, but ALWAYS a smile. The three of us bonded over beers, travel and the love of photography. I was so excited to cover their big day and meeting the family. Little did I know there were several "hand models" related to the ladies that were constantly sh
