Kathie and Jes

I had so much fun the other week making wedding portraits for Kathie and Jes! They built a backdrop and wanted to create a more modern studio look for their photos. It was definitely different from my norm as I usually go out into nature for my portraits but I was up for the challenge and I’m really happy how these turned out. Thank you Kathie and Jes for having me create these portraits for you!

Kaitlyn and Justin

I photographed Kaitlyn and Justin’s wedding a couple of weeks ago on a lovely October fall Saturday. I absolutely adore that the first thing we did was take some photos with their adorable puppy Sloane. She was really camera shy and I did my very best to be calm with her and was happy to get a few good ones. Their ceremony was held at the Buffalo Creek Brewery in Long Grove, IL so we took advantage of the beautiful fall scenery for portraits in the area including the Parker Coffin Bridge and the pumpkins set up for the fall fest going on downtown. It was an honor and privilege to photograph their marriage and to be a part of their day. Congratulations Kaitlyn and Justin!!

Alex and Ellena

Congrats to Ellena and Alex who got married the other week at Mayslake Peabody Estate in the beautiful Portiuncula chapel. I was with them for just a short time that day but we had an absolute blast. I love it when I get to work with my couples in creating some really fun and unique images. Bonus for all of the laughter as well! Thank you Ellena and Alex for having me be a part of your wedding! -Jake
