After having to reschedule because of this unpredictable Chicago weather… I finally got to shoot Jackie + Matt’s (I mean Mark, Matt, Mark, Matt, Matt… ahhh #photogproblems – when two of your couples almost have the same names, it takes about half the session for my brain to adjust) Naperville engagement photos. The day couldn’t […]

Tijana reached out to me back in January after finding me on Pinterest. She and Aleks are getting married in Michigan – but they wanted to do some engagement photos in the Windy City, as well. During this gorgeous engagement session, they told me how their love story started a few years ago at a […]

Taylor + Joe started dating in high school, and they’ve never looked back. They beat the long-distance relationship struggles through college and grad school… and they’ve found a way to spend quality time together despite Taylor’s hectic work schedule (Taylor works as an Athletic Trainer at North Central College in Naperville). I’ve known Taylor for […]

This unpredictable Chicago weather has made it a teeeeeeny bit difficult to plan and shoot these engagement sessions that were scheduled around this time of year because it’s supposed to be warm by now… but Lexi + Tim didn’t let the dreary Friday ruin our plans. We met on the Chicago River since they really […]

Jenny + Kevin met in PT school at St. Louis university. They started dating when they were abroad in Italy – which is where they’re going to return for their honeymoon. During the session, Jenny told me it was the perfect spot for them because their favorite thing is wine and Italian food. Which is probably […]

Nandy, Kiran, and myself met at Olive Park a few weeks back on a chilly, and I mean CHIL-LY Saturday morning. The two have been dating for a few years and got engaged a little while ago. Kiran lives in Indiana and Nandy lives in Chicago and their wedding is going to be in New […]

Some of the most common questions I get asked before a shoot are what do we wear? What should we bring? Can we change outfits? So, I wanted to write this blog as a sort of reference point I could direct my clients to when asking these very valid questions. When it comes to what […]

One of the biggest things I learned from second shooting for JordanQuinn Photography and Brittany Bekas Photography in September 2012, was that I appreciated the direction they gave me when sending me to shoot the guys’ portraits by myself. I knew what I would want to photograph for myself, but when you’re second shooting it’s […]

Lauren and I were in the same sorority at the University of Illinois (what up Gamma Phi Beta), so when it came time for her to choose her wedding photographer, she had seen my work through Faceook and reached out. We met at one of her and Jaden’s favorite local spots, Ugly Mug Café, and […]

All clients receive a private gallery where they can view, download, and share photos from their JTPhoto […]
