Engagement Portraits - Molly and Michael

We always love when our clients include their pets during their photo sessions. Molly and Michael volunteer for Second City Canine Rescue so of course they had their dogs in a bunch of their photos! I even got some great solo photos of each of them. Molly and Michael were so much fun to photograph and I can’t wait to capture their wedding in October 2021.

Thapar extended family portraits

I’ve done several photo sessions for Mala and Nitin over the past couple of years and I always love working for them! Right after our most recent session in June they invited me to come do Nitin’s extended family portraits a few weeks later. It was so much fun hanging out with their family and getting photos of all the different group combinations. Thanks to the Thapar family for having me make these portraits!!

Molly and Mike

Usually, on a typical year, I’m in the thick of wedding season by now. But we all know this is not a typical year. Molly and Mike’s wedding at the end of June ended up being my first wedding to photograph in 2020 and I couldn’t have asked for a sweeter couple to work for! They had an intimate ceremony at S.S. Peter and Paul Church in Naperville surrounded by their immediate family. What I wasn’t expecting was walking out of the church to find a parade of their extended family and friends lined up across the street and in their cars to celebrate Molly and Mike’s marriage. I felt the love and support everybody had for them. I’m happy I was able to capture their wedding and wish them a heartfelt congrats!
