Sara and Simon

Sara and Simon had a beautiful outdoor wedding at the Morton Arboretum’s Thornhill Center. The Morton Arboretum is one of my favorite places to photograph as the scenery is just breathtaking anywhere you turn. We started with a first look at the Fragrance Garden, then made a stop at Meadow Lake, and then finished out portraits up at the Spruce Plot. It was a wonderful day! Congratulations to Sara and Simon!!

Anna and Matt

Anna and Matt had such a sweet wedding, and we had so much fun being a part of their day. Fortunately the rain held off for their ceremony at the Winnetka Community House, and we were able to do everything outdoors, as planned!

Anna had the sweetest first-look with her grandfather, and we love that he walked her down the aisle. There were so many sentimental moments and intimate details throughout their day. Anna and Matt are so head over heels for each other, and couldn’t stop smiling the whole day through.

We loved being able to be there to capture Anna and Matt’s sweet wedding, and wish them nothing but the best.

Apolonia and Ashley

I had the joy of photographing Ashley and Apolonia's beautiful summer wedding a couple of weeks ago at Lake Katherine in Palos Heights. It was so awesome to capture the love these brides have for each other! Apolonia looked gorgeous in her gown and Ashley looked incredible in her blue suit. Their wedding was full of happy tears, laughter, and love. I am so grateful I was able to be a part of it all. Check out a few of my favorite photos from their day!

Katy and Seth

Katy and Seth had a beautiful day for their sweet summer wedding a few weeks ago! Katy and her girls got ready at the The Freehand Hotel, which was absolutely amazing. We had so much fun with them and their bridal party, as we hit up a few spots around the city for portraits.

Katy was absolutely stunning, and Seth could not keep his eyes off her. We loved their style, their incredible florals by Life in Bloom, and the way their entire day reflected who they are as a couple.

Jordyn, and her team from Bliss Weddings & Events kept the day running smoothly and perfectly timed. We loved all the thought that was put into every detail, and we were so honored to be a part of their day.

Please take a peek through a slideshow of some of our favorite images!

Best wishes to Katy and Seth
