I grew up the kid who was OBSESSED with all of the Disney princess movies and just in love with the idea of “true love”, which has shown itself in SO many ways in my life. My first true love I found was my camera and photography. I picked up my dad's camera for the first time when I was 8 years old and decided at that moment that it was all I wanted to do. I could show people the way I saw the wor

ld and to little 8 year old me, that was the coolest thing EVER. It started off as capturing the things I loved, whether that was animals at the zoo, my friends, or siblings… I was ALWAYS shoving a camera in somebody's face. As I got older, that grew into capturing the love that other people put into the world. I started working with local photographers in my hometown around the time I was 14 to learn how to start working weddings and being able to document that step in somebody's love story. When I was 17, I knew this was it for me and it was time to start my own company and really seriously do this thing. Since then, I’ve been able to go full time in this incredible industry and make a living off capturing the love I see around me every single day, whether that love is a couple committing to spending their lives together, parents welcoming a child into their lives, the love between a family, or the love of someone seeing their favorite band on stage for the first time. The world is full of love and magical firsts, I’m so incredibly honored to be able to capture them to look back on forever. I’m available for booking through the greater Chicagoland area & throughout the country for all types of sessions + concerts!

Falling in love with everything about Stephanie + Abi's wedding day all over again as I'm finishing up editing this gallery so here are a few b&w images from the day

The world feels so scary right now and standing together has never been more important. If you’re a LGBTQ+ couple trying to get married before the next president is in office, I would love to offer my services at any budget around Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Indiana.

I am also taking the steps to become a legal officiant across those states so that I can offer those services to anyone who needs it.

If you’re a wedding vendor offering similar services, please let me know what you’re offering & where you’re located so I can keep you on a list to share with those who need it!

The last time I did photos of Kayla + Zach was their engagement session when they had recently found out they were pregnant with their first child & then last week I got to do their maternity family photos with their third 🥺

Absolutely in love with this adorable lil family.

Today is officially one year until Aleks + Sam get married!

I had been looking forward to Mary & Erik's engagement session for SO long and it absolutely blew all my expectations out of the water. I'm so obsessed.

Big thank you to Ravenswood Used Books for letting us use the space!

Haley & James braved 30mph gusts of wind for our session on Sunday and honestly, I don't think it could have been more perfect.

Leontyne + Sol went into wedding planning knowing that the most important thing to them was celebrating their love with the people who matter most to them & that's exactly what they got to do.

They have the kind of love you can feel when they enter a room & I'm so honored to have gotten to spend this day with them, even if they made me cry over how much they love each other like 9 times (I'm pretty sure that's a new record)

I've had the honor of knowing Justin & Angela for quite a few years now and I think Justin's brother said it best during his speech: You can literally see the love between these two when you look at them.

I always have so much fun capturing wedding days but yesterday really was something special fifteen years in the making.

Lorenna + Angel get married in exactly one year! It was so great to get to meet them in person & spend some time together for their engagement session at the end of last month
