I couldn't be happier for Colleen & Stuart.  They were simply amazing to work with throughout the entire planning process.  You can view their engagement images here.  Their ideal aesthetic was elegant and modern, and the Thompson Chicago in the Gold Coast was the perfect venue (also one of my favorite places to shoot).  Their day in particular was filled with both laughter and tears, as well as subtle moments and an epic dance party.   I sincerely wish them both the very best!

As a Chicago wedding photographer, I have been privileged to document numerous love stories, each one unique and beautiful in its own way. However, Wes and David's wedding was truly a remarkable experience. From the moment I arrived at The LaSalle Chicago hotel to capture the grooms getting ready, I knew this day would be filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments!

Chris and Chereesa’s Adler Planetarium Chicago wedding was filled with unconventional ideas, electrifying color, and so many unique moments.

Sonali & Prithvi's wedding has to be one of the most opulent and extravagant Indian weddings I have ever photographed.  Everything from the mehndi to the sangeet (click here for Part I) to the wedding itself was absolutely stunning.

Photographing Kacie & Varun’s wedding was an absolute joy. Honestly they were one of my favorite couples to work with (click here to check out their engagement photos). Their wedding day blended both the classic and creative, and truly took us around the city.

I had a fantastic time capturing Laura and Victor’s colorful engagement session. Since then, I couldn’t wait for their summer wedding at Carnivale Chicago.

I met Bevin & Graeme through my old neighbors in Logan Square, whose wedding I also photographed. They are a fantastically unique, emotional and fun-loving couple. Their wedding day showcased their whimsical taste (check out those floral Doc Martens) and how inclusive they are as humans.

Photographing Jenna & Brandon’s London House Chicago wedding was a blast. Brandon being an active member of the U.S. Marines, they have traveled and lived all over the world, but their wedding was a Chicago classic. Their design incorporated lots of white with pops of red, a military inspired ceremony led by their uncle who served in the Navy, and a cake cutting moment with a marine sword that was a lot of fun to capture.

After photographing Melanie and Seth’s engagement session, I had a feeling their Loews Chicago Hotel wedding day was going to be filled with the best energy.

Kimi & Kevin hosted a wonderfully intimate wedding at Loft on Lake. We started the day with getting ready photos at Kimi’s mother’s home in Lakeview. Her sisters were with her every step of the way as well.

Terry & Michael were honestly a dream to work with, and brought an amazing amount of personal vision and style to their wedding.  We met through an old college friend of mine (Go Illini), and had a great time getting to know each other.  I say it over and over, but having a personal connection with the client makes all the difference in the world.

Caroline & Michael’s big day is a wonderful example of a classic Chicago wedding, with a beautiful mix of modern and historical elements. Their ceremony was held at one of the most recognizable catholic churches in Chicago, Holy Name Cathedral.
