A blog of our current photography work.

Lindsey and Eric

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing Lindsey and Eric’s wedding ceremony in Aurora at one of the most stylish venues I know of called Company 251. It’s basically a giant photo studio that you can get married in with tons of places to do portraits. Even their elevator is amazing! We started the day with their bridal party and family walking around downtown Aurora. It had rained all morning but the weather cleared up and became a perfectly sunny day minutes before their first look. Photographing Lindsey, Eric, and their party was like hanging out with friends. They are such a great group of people and I cannot wait to photograph their reception in 2021! -Jake

Kerr Family

Last week I did some more family portraits for the Kerr family! Usually we do their portraits somewhere in the city but this time we switched things up and met at the Chicago Botanic Gardens. I love photographing the Kerr’s and I always have so much fun with them. Their kids have such great personalities and they always have their own ideas for the pictures. My personal favorites are the circular window they found to sit in and the photos we took down by the lake. I can’t wait to show them all the photos! -Jake

Torres Family

The Torres family reached out to me for a few quick photos of them with their baby as she was growing up fast and they wanted to capture this time in their lives! They said they had plenty of photos of just her so they booked a mini session to get a few good photos of the three of them together. Little ones grow up so fast and it’s important to get photos of them at each stage to look back on. It’s so wild to look back on photos of them when they were small and to see how far they’ve come! -Jake

Tamragouri Family

I’ve been loving all these family sessions we’ve been doing lately and the Tamragouri family was no exception! I met them at their home and had a blast spending an hour with them taking their portraits. Their little guy Ishan certainly stole the show. A big thank you to the Tamragouri fam for having me do these pictures! -Jake

Casey Family

The other week I met up with the Casey family to do portraits of them as they welcomed their newborn baby boy into this world. Phillip was so cute and sleepy for his portrait debut! I love that they included their pup Petey into a bunch of the family photos as well. Thank you to the Casey family for having me come to their home to do their portraits!
