Sachanda Family

Earlier this week I did some family portraits for the Sachanda family at their home in Hinsdale. They were all together for the holiday and decided to try to get some pictures of the whole family. It was so much fun following the two little cousins around as they picked flowers and enjoyed the warm weather. Thank you to the Sachandas for having me take their family photos!

Keith and Madelene's Wedding

Keith and Madelene had such a sweet and intimate wedding fete on April 1st, and we just loved being a part of their laid-back celebration! They had a beautiful ceremony followed by a pie reception and dinner at The Girl and the Goat - if you haven't had the opportunity to eat there, we 10/10 recommend.

Every detail of their day was carefully crafted.  We love how much though was put into every moment.

Thank you, Keith and Madelene, for allowing us to be present.

Kelly and Drew's Wedding

Kelly and Drew were married a couple of weeks ago at the beautiful and timeless Armour House in Lake Forest. I absolutely love photographing at this venue.  I always feel like I've traveled to Europe when I'm there. I was a little jealous of Drew's suit and Kelly looked absolutely stunning! I can't thank these guys enough for having me photograph their day! -Jake

Brittany and Ryan's Wedding

Brittany and Ryan were married a couple of weeks ago at the First Church of the Nazarene in Kankakee and their reception was held next to the beautiful Kankakee River at the Elks Country Club in St. Anne.  So much thought was put into every detail at this intimate wedding. One of Brittany's friends did her make-up and another friend handmade her dress.  I witnessed one of the sweetest ceremonies and first dances that I've ever seen at this wedding (Oh, and confetti canons and a ukulele!). Congratulations Brittany and Ryan! -Jake

Martha and Jonathan's Wedding

A couple of weekends ago I had the pleasure of being the photographer for Martha and Jonathan's wedding in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. Their intimate ceremony was held at the beautiful Mayslake Peabody Estate in Oakbrook and their reception was at the Seven Bridges Golf Club in Woodridge.  The weather was a little crazy so we did almost all of the portraits inside of the estate and it turned out to be an amazing place to do them! Here's a sampling of photos from their wedding and I hope you enjoy them! -Jake
