Deirdre and Phil were married at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood with a reception at Cafe Brauer.
I started with Deirdre and the rest of the bridesmaids at Claridge House hotel. The ladies had a lot of fun listening to Taylor Swift while getting ready and it was a really great morning all around. Justin started with Phil and the guys at the same hotel as well…
Tess and Charles were married at The Drake Hotel in Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood. The Drake is a classic and historic Chicago Hotel on Michigan Avenue and one the city’s best venues…
Kendyll and Chris were married at one of Chicago’s best loft wedding venues: Artifact Events in the city’s Ravenswood neighborhood. I’m a bit partial to the venue because it’s just a few blocks from my home and I’m a well-known sucker for exposed brick loft spaces…
Nadia and Michael’s outdoor wedding at The Dawson was my third wedding of the Labor Day weekend and my second to feature a tropical bird! I started with Nadia at the couple’s home where she was getting ready. Jay spent the morning with Michael and the guys. Nadia was in great spirits despite the weather and the threat of rain. It was really cool to see the look come together as she put on the traditional Palestinian wedding dress with the help of of her mother and sister – it also made for some really fun moments!
Cindy and JP were married at Fairlie – a new industrial loft venue in Chicago’s Kinzie Industrial Corridor. I love these kinds of exposed brick spaces and Fairlie is one of the best…
Amy and Eric were married at the the Museum of Science and Industry on Chicago’s south side. They both have backgrounds in STEM so the venue choice was perfect!..
I met Allison and Bret in Lincoln Park at the Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool to kick off their summer engagement session in Chicago. The Lily Pool is one of my favorite locations in the city, and surprisingly still a little under the radar…
Sarah and Haley were married at The Langham Hotel in downtown Chicago. They were one of the first weddings I had postponed during the pandemic and one of the final reschedules on my 2022 calendar – so I was very excited to finally be able to capture their wedding and share these photos!…
I met Dierdre and Phil at a coffee shop in the in the West Loop called Sawada. After catching up over drinks we headed out for a walking tour around Chicago’s hottest neighborhood. We started at the popular Green Street Smoked Meats and some of the nearby alleys. After our tour through the exposed brick and cobblestone we made our way toward the Riverwalk area…
Haley and Chris were married on New Year’s Eve at Two Brothers Roundhouse Brewery in Aurora, Illinois. I’m very thankful that Michael was with me for the day. I used to work in Aurora for The Beacon newspaper almost 15 years ago when first moved to Illinois, so it was fun to return to my old coverage area…
