It’s that time of year again. People are getting engaged, wedding planning is beginning, and although most girls have had a clear vision of what they’ve wanted their wedding to look like since they were little girls – it’s always nice to see a little inspiration and get a peek into what other brides are […]

We’re driving through Chicago on the trolley, Taylor Swift’s Shake It Off comes on the radio – and of course, everyone starts singing along. And as I’m snapping pictures of the cheers-ing, laughing, singing, and dancing – I notice something. I’m not hearing the usual off key scream-singing that I myself am guilty of when my […]

Sarah + Greg chose their wedding date based on one thing… the Bears and Packers both having bye weeks that Sunday. As soon as I heard that – I knew this couple and wedding group was going to be tons of fun. The day was set at the historic Blackstone Hotel in the South Loop of Chicago. […]

A Disney girl at heart, Carrie always envisioned her wedding day as a fairytale. And let me tell you – it was nothing short of that. From her wonderfully fluffy princess bridal gown, to “Be Our Guest” being played as dinner was served at the reception, to her beautiful big eyes that resemble all the Disney princesses’ (something I […]

Jenny + Kevin are one of the sweetest couples I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with, and Jenny’s dad painted the perfect picture of just how sweet Jenny has been all her life. When Jenny was in the third grade, the teacher had the kids write down what they wanted to be when they grew up. Typical […]

Courtney and Zach’s engagement session was one of my favorites of this year. They are both pretty much drop dead gorgeous, and we got to spend some time in Grant Park by the fountain, on the lake, and soaking up the beautiful Chicago skyline. So ever since then, I’ve been pretty darn excited for their […]

I met Lauren + Lee earlier this year out in Scottsdale, AZ. Lauren and I can’t even remember how she stumbled across my website… but I’m glad that she did because I got to know such a wonderful and kind couple. Like any wedding, the day was hectic, full of unexpected situations, and crunched for […]

Ryan and Jennie’s Itasca Country Club wedding location was extra special because it’s basically how they met. Ryan was a caddy there, and Jennie’s dad is a member. And even though he tried to set them up early in life, it wasn’t until Ryan saw Jennie in the newspaper a few years ago that the stars finally aligned. According […]

Lauren + Jaden’s wedding was one that I had been looking forward to for a while now. After our super fun engagement session along the Chicago Riverwalk, I knew this was going to be a memorable day. Let’s start with the sweet, sweet couple. Lauren + Jaden are one of those couples that just go with […]

Monica + PJ’s wedding was one that lies close to my heart. Not only have I know Monica and PJ for a few years now (Mon since grade school and PJ since high school), but they also got married at St. Charles Borromeo – which is where I (and my 2 older brothers) went to […]
