A blog of our current photography work.

Emily & Pat

Emily and Pat were such a joy to work with. Their early April wedding at Floating World Gallery was absolutely heartwarming and full of love and laughter.

We loved their first look, and how Pat absolutely lit up when he saw his bride walking toward him. Of course, we were thrilled that they included their dog, P, in their celebration!

Every last detail was so lovingly curated, and we appreciated their attention to every aspect of their day.

Emily and Pat, Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your day. Thanks also to Jamie Engelhardt for being my second photographer.

Eliza and Ezra

Eliza and Ezra purchased a photography session during a silent auction benefiting our friends at Grassroots Animal Rescue! These two beautiful people were able to save some kittens, while also getting their engagement portraits taken!

How great is it that we get to use our photography to save animals AND meet amazing like-minded people?

It was so fun spending time with you, Eliza and Ezra. Thanks for introducing us to the restaurant Bangers and Lace in Chicago.

David and Tayler

David and Tayler had a beautiful, Spring wedding in downtown Geneva, a couple of weeks back. Weather looked iffy leading up to their big day, but they ended up with an incredible March afternoon! David and Tayler got ready at the historic Herrington Inn, and had the sweetest first look. David couldn’t keep his eyes off of his stunning bride, and we loved the way his entire face lit up when he saw her walking toward him

We had so much fun doing portraits along the beautiful Fox River, and their bridal party was so fun to be around!

Their ceremony at Riverside Receptions was beautiful and heartfelt, and the florals by Kio Kreations that were along the aisle and draped the Chuppah, were stunning! We love that they had a friend act as their officiant, and the music they chose was spot-on!

Their reception was filled with laughter, great food, dancing and incredible music; provided by the lovely and talented Rachel of Toast & Jam!

David and Tayler, we are so glad you asked us to be a part of your beautiful day. It was truly an honor.

Genevieve and Grace

There’s nothing quite as meaningful as being able to capture important milestones in peoples lives. We were happy to be there at Colleen and Ryan’s wedding and then again to capture some maternity photos and finally to celebrate the arrival of their sweet girls Genevieve and Grace.
