I never actually met Katie or Mark until the day of the wedding. They planned it all from out of town and everything was coordinated over the phone/email. But when I walked into Mario Tricoci and saw this happy girl with a beaming smile on her face – I knew it had to be Katie […]

It’s been weeks since your wedding day. The last dance has been danced, the last crumb of the cake has been licked off your plate, the blisters on your feet from those gorgeous wedding shoes you just had to wear have worn down, and your wedding dress has been sealed in an air-tight bag for storage and […]

A few days ago, I received the following message from one of my Facebook Page fans. Hey Jill! I just wanted to compliment you on your photography! All of your images are just beautiful! I was curious how you get such perfect lighting? Do you use speed lights or reflectors, or just get super lucky with available […]

I met Julie, John, and Julie’s mother Kathy at a little place called Cafe Selmarie in Lincoln Square a while back. We chatted and shared a few laughs over lattes as I learned more about their relationship, wedding day, photography wants, and even about a French dish called poutine (basically fries with gravy on top… […]

After having an absolute blast with Karen + Garth during their Naperville engagement session back in June, I had been looking forward to their Chicago wedding with much anticipation. And when the beautiful day in August finally came – I couldn’t have been more ready. I started the day off with Karen at the Palmer House Hotel where I […]

It was a quick Friday night event, filled with Indian food, bright colors, mehndi hand painting, and big smiles from Payal, Justin, and their families. The night before the wedding, Payal + Justin had me join them in a little Indian tradition at the Fox Run Golf Links in Elk Grove. I got to meet both of […]

August’s Moment of the Month was a no-brainer. It was literally the BEST Maid of Honor Speech I have ever seen. And that comes from a girl that goes to a lot of weddings, hears a lot of fantastic speeches, even cries during the majority of them – but this one? It takes the cake. […]

Shooting with JordanQuinn Photography over the past (almost) two years has brought me nothing but fun, exciting, and new learning experiences. This was no different. I had photographed some smaller scale Indian events over the past two years on my own, but Neha + Arpit’s wedding took everything I knew to a whole other level. Multiple days, […]

This past Sunday, I was lucky enough to be a part of one of my best friend Sammie’s beautiful Wedding Shower at Villa Brunetti in Franklin Park. While I may have been to dozens of weddings over the past two years, somehow, this was my first wedding shower. True to form, Sammie made sure to incorporate tons […]

I met Maureen for the first time as she walked through the doors of St. Clement’s Church in Lincoln Park in her gorgeous lace and tool wedding dress. I was so taken aback by her real, natural beauty that I forgot to even introduce myself and just stared and smiled. Luckily, being the sweetheart that she is, […]
