Naperville Riverwalk Engagement Session
I met with Matt and Candice exactly one month after their wedding to do their post wedding couple shoot. We met in Naperville on the riverwalk and also went through some of the alleys to get some more urban images so they had a nice mix of images to decorate their walls of their new place with. Although I may need to see them again soon since they are getting a 4 legged new member of the family and he will want to be on the walls too! Enjoy your images!!
Graue Mill Oak Brook Engagement and Family Session
I had met Liz and Jesse through Bella Life photography a few years ago when her youngest was just a baby! When she had emailed me to inquire about wedding photography I was excited to meet her and talk about her awesome wedding since I hadn't seen her in a few years.
We decided on Graue Mill in Oak Brook for our location and then she and the family braved the cold for an awesome shoot with the most gorgeous light you could imagine. While it wasn't the warmest day I hope you can feel a little bit of the warmth she has within her beautiful family! Can't wait till your wedding!!
Liberty Tree in Harbour Town Hilton Head Island Wedding
I was so excited to fly out to Hilton Head Island in South Carolina to photograph the wedding of Mark and Carol. The weather was amazing, so nice. First, we headed to the bank to get the marriage license signed, and in South Carolina, that is where you can become legally married, just by signing the paper with the notary. Then it was off to get ready for their big day. They got married under the Liberty Tree in Harbour Town and it was just magical, there are no other words to describe it! The reception was gorgeous and the food was divine. Beef Wellington....yes....amazing. The party went on until the wee hours of the night and it was just an amazing day, Congratulations!
Chicago Lake Shore Drive Outdoor Wedding and The Signature Room
I met Sara almost 6 years ago at my job, she was actually my manager and a wonderful one at that. So I was flattered when she reached out to me to see if I was available to photograph her wedding and engagement I was so excited. Her ceremony took place right off Lake Shore Drive overlooking the city on one side and the lake and beach on the other. She wore Steve's family heirloom dress for the ceremony, a dress worn by not just his mother, but also his grandmother too. After the ceremony, we head back to the hotel for a quick outfit change and then headed back outside for some more photos of the couple together. After we finished, we head to their reception, a delicious brunch at The Signature Room. The views were amazing to say the least. The love was all around the room as they celebrated with family and friends and I hope you enjoy the images from your day!
Millennium Park Chicago Engagement Photo Session
I met Matthew & Angela a little over a year ago now through my job with Bella Baby Photography. They have the most adorable son who is now 15 months who I have been photographing since he was a newborn. Their shoots have always been so fun and easy, and they are all so photogenic When Angela told me that she was getting married in July, My immediate question was if they had a wedding photographer and Viola they decided to book with me. I include an engagement shoot with all of my wedding collections so we decided to meet at Millennium Park in Chicago. This was a special place to them as this is where they actually met for the first time. We had a few reschedule due to some less than ideal weather, and I know you wouldn't know it by looking at these images but boy was it cold! Thanks guys for being troopers and I hope you enjoy them!
