Winter Wedding at Lincolnshire Marriott Resort: Erin & Michael

Winter Wedding at Lincolnshire Marriott Resort: Erin & Michael

Erin & Michael were married at Lincolnshire Marriott Resort. Winter weddings are always a treat as I’m often stuck inside during these months so it was great to be able to get in one more wedding before the seasonal break. You never know what the weather will look like in January in Illinois, but thankfully we got lucky with reasonable temperatures and a little bit of snow on the ground to make it feel like a winter wedding.

Julia & Peter’s Rust Belt Market Wedding in downtown Ferndale

Julia & Peter’s Rust Belt Market Wedding in downtown Ferndale

Julia & Peter were married at Rust Belt Market in downtown Ferndale. I always love getting a chance to head back to my home state of Michigan for weddings. I’m always a bit nervous about winter weddings, but thankfully we had a nice January afternoon. Rust Belt Market is a truly unique venue and I’m a little jealous that we don’t have anything like it here in Chicago. It’s a great space with a plenty of of interesting backgrounds and textures for portraits. How about that red couch!..

Laura & Paul’s wedding at Anodyne Coffee Roasting Co

Laura & Paul’s wedding at Anodyne Coffee Roasting Co

I have to say I haven’t photographed a wedding quite like Laura and Paul’s at Anodyne Coffee Roasting Co. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. For one, I don’t get a chance to shoot in Milwaukee all that often, but I always love it. The city always feels such a more manageable size than Chicago. When I first heard Laura and Paul’s venue was a “coffee shop” I was intrigued. But Anodyne is unlike any coffee shop I’ve been to. It’s a huge space with a great natural light for a ceremony and a great stage for a band during the reception…

Winter Wedding at Oak Brook Bath and Tennis Club: Catherine & Chris

Winter Wedding at Oak Brook Bath and Tennis Club: Catherine & Chris

Catherine and Chris’ Winter wedding at Oak Brook Bath and Tennis Club was a great way to start my 2019 wedding season. It’s been a while since I shot at Oak Brook Bath and Tennis Club and it was great to get back out there. They’ve made some nice changes to the interior and it’s a total hidden gem that I don’t think a lot of people know about…

Marissa & Tory’s Wedding at Buck’s Run Golf Club

Marissa & Tory’s Wedding at Buck’s Run Golf Club

Some of the first people (more than a decade ago!) to trust me to document their weddings were my family, specifically a few of my cousins. So when Marissa and Tory asked me to photograph their wedding I was thrilled. It’s always an honor to be asked shoot a wedding for family and I love an excuse to travel beyond my normal Chicago wedding venues. Buck’s Run Golf Club offered some great portrait spots and there were some perfect “Pure Michigan” fall colors. Especially loved the Red Maples!..
