After a lot of messages asking if I'll do just one more Christmas set, we have decided that we WILL do just one more set of minis this year! ☺️✨

Join me for an INSIDE Christmas set in my brand new in-home studio in Leland, IL. OR we can hop outside to the red VW Bus which I'll have parked outside (in front of a field) for an option to use that instead.

TAT will be 10 days, Dec 4th, meaning these will still be great for Christmas cards! 🌲🫶🏻

Come join us for some Christmas photos & fun!

(Hot chocolate will be served inside the studio too!☕️)

Hey, client fam! 🫶🏻

Jess & Ty here with a few important updates!

Thanks so much for all your patience - and thank you for giving us our BUSIEST BUSY SEASON ✨ EVER ✨!

16 Fall sessions have been delivered in the past 48 hours! (A LOT of them last night) & 4 more will be going out this evening! I mean, c'mon! How gorgeous are all of these families?! 😍

-

We hope you're all cozying in for a beautiful Holiday season. It's been a whirlwind around here! Ty had an accident and had to have reconstructive tendon surgery in his hand, & we've had sessions every single day (often more than one), & will continue to end off the busy season with just about daily sessions until Thanksgiving! Top that off with a lot of other crazy events & it's certainly been a year to remember!

With that said, we are BOOKED UP for the year! 🤍 We will be taking December off of shooting (unless already booked - no worries!) any further sessions to leave time for family & working on our editing queue! ALL Fall minis, full Fall sessions, & weddings will be out before Dec 1st (hopefully even by Thanksgiving)! 🫶🏻

-

Lastly, WE ARE CURRENTLY BOOKING 2025-2026 WEDDINGS!

We only take on so many photo/video weddings per year and certain months of both years are booked up already! We have decided to have much stricter booking boundaries in place where we will be taking on less weddings than we ever have before to maintain a healthier work/life balance.

So please, don't waste too much time! ☺️ Reach out to us on our website if you want to know more about why working with us to capture your big day is the best investment! 🥰

4 more sessions gone/going out today, another wedding going out tomorrow, a big wedding sneak going out Friday, & probably at least a few more sessions somewhere in-between shooting sessions, too. 🤍

Here's just one fav photo (of thousands) that I've edited this week 🥹☺️

Yesterday was absolute ✨ magic ✨

We always love being back at one of our favorite venues Blumen Gardens! Especially on an absolutely perfect Fall day!

Congrats, Emily & Mark! 😍

*100% OF PROCEEDS + TIPS FROM THESE MINIS IS GOING DIRECTLY TO CONVOY OF HOPE*

Every year in October our church Harvest Chapel in Sandwich, IL partners with Convoy of Hope to help feed and educate the poor and suffering around the world. The church asks us all to prayerfully consider giving one day's wage to help with the cause knowing God can stretch our dollar further then we can imagine.

Our three girls (ages 7, 5, and 3) decided that this year they want to help me shoot a set of mini sessions, with the goal being to raise as much as we can for Convoy of Hope! They will be with me at these sessions, second shooting (on real pro cameras) + showing off all they've been learning!

These can be any type of mini: Family (one family unit only/not extended), Maternity, Couple, or Portrait/Headshots! Just come looking your best and ready to have fun.

Each session will have a full gallery (professionally edited by myself) of at least 40+ images!

Again, every cent of these minis will be going to an amazing cause. Thank you so much for helping!

Location is in Plano, IL off River Rd (near the Farnsworth House).

Kelley Jo did 3 looks for her maternity session - and I have to say, I'm more than a little obsessed with the black 🖤✨

10/02/2024

I just love when I get to continue capturing life's next adventures after the engagement & wedding 🥹🤍 there's a lot of that this year! Both maternity & newborn! I'm so blessed with the career I have, y'all.

How sweet are they? The weather was simply too perfect for words at this beautiful Fall maternity session last month 🎋

Noncek Wedding: The Preview 🤍

Downtown Chicago wedding ✨🫶🏼

This wedding was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The city is an absolutely amazing place to get married when you do it like this couple did!

Our entire team spent the night at Swissôtel Chicago along with the wedding party. After getting ready we headed to Twenty Six Chicago first looks and a special drink with the parents, followed by an adorable wedding trolley taking the bridal party all over the city for photos, & finally ending with an absolutely amazing ceremony and reception with a view at Lacuna Lofts.

One of the best parts of the night definitely had to be the live music by The Walk-ins! An incredible all-inclusive (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, etc. coverage) live music wedding service! The entire band was made up of Chicago teachers and superintendents. They even made me sing a Whitney Houston song with them 🤣

Seriously one for the books! Congrats, Dan & Sydney! 😍

P.S.

If you're here because you're getting married and are still looking for a photo/video vendor - we've got you! We still have availability for 10 weddings in 2025! Reach out on the website here! ☺
