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…
Jill and Jacob were married at Loft Lucia in a rooftop ceremony in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood. Justin and I had been eagerly anticipating working with Jill & Jacob since their engagement session earlier in the year. The morning started at the beautiful Publishing House Bed & Breakfast…
Kendyll and Chris suggested start their engagement session in their neighborhood on the 606 Trail near Wicker Park. I’ve shot a few family photos there, but this was my first time taking a couple along the Bloomingdale Trail. We did a down and back lap to Park No. 567 and the Spire Garden near Milwaukee…
Before I even heard about Amy & Eric’s wedding plans, they shared their vision of an engagement session at Olive Park with their dog, Ty(phoon.) It’s their neighborhood park and they love taking Ty for walks there so I was happy to spend the afternoon with them at one of their special spots…
I met Hayley and Chris in their suburban neck of the woods – downtown Lemont. It was great to chat about their wedding plans over beers at Pollyanna Brewing Company.
Just as we finished our drinks the cloud cover parted and we were welcomed with a beautiful blue sky.
Katie and Aaron, like many couples, postponed their fall 2020 wedding plans to later this year. But that gave us time this summer for an engagement session here in downtown Chicago. The weather started looked dicey all morning, but thankfully we stuck with the plan and the rain stayed away. We enjoyed a great afternoon and evening walking through some of Chicago’s best engagement locations…
Lauren and Dan were married at the historic Rookery Building in Chicago. It’s been a bit since I shot at the Rookery building and I almost forgot what a treat it is.
I spent the morning with Lauren and her bridesmaids getting ready around the corner at the JW Marriott Hotel. It was nice chill morning and I loved Lauren’s mom’s excitement as she buttoned Lauren into the dress. But the faces of Lauren’s bridesmaids seeing her in it for the first time was the real showstopper!
