On a sunny summer day in Chicago, I had the honor of photographing Anne and Eric's wedding. The day started at the couple's home in Ukrainian Village, where the bride was getting ready with her sisters. I love when couples start the day at home, as it allows me to involve their space in their wedding day story. Anne's family was so much fun to photograph, and the first look with her father was a particularly touching moment.

Photographing a wedding is always a unique experience, but when you have a couple as fun and easy-going as Sam & Kirby, it becomes even more enjoyable. As a wedding photographer, capturing the special moments of a couple's big day is a huge responsibility, and I'm so grateful to have been a part of theirs.

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

Spring is a time of new beginnings, and what better way to celebrate that than with an engagement session! Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Jenny & David on Chicago's Museum Campus. The weather really turned in our favor, and it was a perfect warm sunny day.

I’m so appreciative of the heartfelt and genuine looks these two grooms were serving up on their wedding day. As a photographer, I’m always looking for THAT moment, a picture that captures the affection and emotion of the day… and I am proud of how many of those moments I was able to photograph for Chris & Mike.

Alev & Gil were simply wonderful to work with and photograph. They brought an easy going and overall fun attitude to their wedding day, and from start to finish they were full of smiles, laugher and love. It was truly amazing and an honor to witness their traditions, families and communities come together to celebrate!

The joy and vibrancy of this couple and family made photographing their wedding weekend a complete joy. Mahima and Nick’s wedding was so full of moments and memories, it would be impossible to show in only a few images. I’m always honored to tell the story of my couples and to create images to share with future generations. Highlighting the beauty of this couple, their families, and their Hindu wedding traditions and decor was the hired task…but the joy for me is in capturing the small moments in between.

I had an absolute blast working with Missy & Danny! They brought so much fun energy to their engagement session and wedding day that honestly they were easy to photograph. I also really appreciated their overall mindset on the day. They started from a place of love and authenticity, and simply wanted their family and friends to come together and celebrate. Everything outside of that was secondary.

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.

Jenny & Marc were a true joy to photograph, and I’m so grateful to Emily Bollinger at The Simply Elegant group for connecting us! From getting ice cream during their engagement session, to an amazing party at City Winery, the couple was honestly a lot of fun to work with. You should check out their engagement photos here!

The weather is finally getting warmer, and it was a ton of fun to get outside and photograph Jenny & Marc’s engagement session! It was the perfect blend of some classic Chicago locations, while also telling a part of their personal story. We started off in the Fulton Market neighborhood, which is a fantastic area for inspiring street art.

Adrienne & Kellen were absolutely wonderful to work with and photograph. They 100% planned their wedding during the pandemic, and I’m so grateful to Danielle with Ohana Events for connecting us. We of course first met over Zoom, but as we got to know one another I could tell we were a great match.
