Jacqueline and Felipe

June has always been an amazing month for me for weddings and Jaqueline and Felipe’s certainly started this month on the right note! I began their day with some getting ready photos and a first look at Jacqueline’s parent’s house before heading out to photograph their ceremony. They got married at the gorgeous St. Isaac Jogues in Hinsdale and we followed the ceremony with some portraits at a nearby park Their reception was held at the classy Chicago Highlands Club in Westchester, Illinois. One of my favorite memories was chasing them in a golf cart around the hills to catch some photos in the setting sun. I love my job and I loved capturing Jacqueline and Felipe’s wedding day!

Caprice and Ryan

Caprice and Ryan got married a few weeks ago in a cute little church in Mokena called Parker Road Bible Church and then partied the night away at CD and Me in Frankfort, IL. We did a bunch of bridal party portraits downtown Frankfort. The weather was sprinkling a bit but the heavy rain held off long enough for us to get all our photos in. Their reception brought back memories because I photographed one of my very first weddings like 15 years ago at that venue. It was awesome to be back there again! It was such a pleasure hanging out with Caprice and Ryan and photographing their beautiful day!

Erica and Jake

Erica and Jake got married almost a year ago at one of our favorite venues: Warehouse 109. This place is located not too far from Chicago in Plainfield, IL and has a really cool vintage warehouse vibe. I love shooting here! It ended up raining a little bit so they ended up doing their ceremony inside and there were plenty of covered spaces to do portraits on site. Erica and Jake also used some of our favorite vendors such as Zuzu's petal's and DeEtta's bakery. I loved working with this couple and wish them a Happy Anniversary!

Liz and Seth

Liz and Seth got married at one of our favorite venues: the Mora Farm. This place is out in the country (but not too far) and is full of rustic charm. They had a cute outdoor ceremony and we did some portraits with a barn and a cornfield as the backdrop. This bridal party was a ton of fun and I wish I could go back to their wedding and hang out some more. And check out Liz's amazing wedding dress!
