A blog of our current photography work.

Emily and Joey

Emily and Joey got married a few weeks ago at the fabulous Artifact Events in the Ravenswood neighborhood in Chicago. The day started with some getting ready pics at the Royal Sonesta hotel followed by a first look on the patio surrounded with a view of Chicago’s skyscrapers. We took a quick ride to Olive Park for some photos with the bridal party who’s energy was off the charts amazing! We finished up with portraits at Artifact Events before their ceremony and reception at the same location. I had a blast photographing Emily and Joey’s wedding and I can’t wait to show them all their photos!

Justin and Rachel

Rachel and Justin got married a couple of weeks ago on a gorgeous April afternoon in downtown Arlington Heights. Both their ceremony and reception were held at the fabulous Metropolis Ballroom. We did a first look up on the patio and took advantage of the scenery on the street with the bridal party before they got married. I am truly blessed to be able to capture amazing couples like Rachel and Justin and to be a part of such an important day in their lives. Congratulations!!

Hannah and Kevin

I photographed Hannah and Kevin’s wedding a few weeks ago on a chilly but beautiful March day. They (and their bridal party!) braved the cold for a first look and portraits outdoors at Ryerson woods before their ceremony at Calvary English Chapel in Wheeling. After the ceremony, I took Hannah and Kevin to an alley in downtown Arlington Heights for a few quick urban portraits before their reception at the amazing Metropolis Ballroom. A huge THANK YOU to Hannah and Kevin for being awesome and for having me be a part of their day. Also, thank you to Nick Holstein for being my second photographer. He always does such a fantastic job.
