Tracy and Jon

Here’s a preview from my wedding session with Tracy and Jon the other week! They had me come take pictures for their wedding at the Dupage County Courthouse followed by portraits at Cantigny Park in Wheaton, Illinois. I loved all of the ideas they had for photos and that everyone was having fun and getting into it. I had a blast photographing Tracy, Jon and their family. Enjoy the photos! -Jake

Sophie and James

I photographed Sophie and James wedding a couple of weeks ago at Kathryn Legge Memorial Park. The first thing I noticed when I got there was the display of the elements earth, air, water and fire. I got excited because it’s not often that I see alternative spiritual principles invoked in a wedding ceremony. One of the first things I do at every wedding is check in with the nature spirits of the place and I spent a few moments looking up at the beautiful pine trees that were overhead and I noticed Sophie glance up a few times during the ceremony and I was all like “I know…they’re lovely aren’t they?”. After their exchange of vows we did a flurry of group portraits in the park and then travelled to Il Poggiolo Ristorante in downtown Hinsdale for a few candids during their reception. I really enjoyed being a part of Sophie and James’ wedding and I wish them all the best with their future together!
