Ali + Josh’s engagement photos were everything. We spent the evening at their favorite bar, with the speakeasy level entirely to ourselves — the perfect setting for such a beautiful couple. I already know their wedding this fall is going to be unforgettable, and I can’t wait to capture it all.

Oh my gosh — these two were as sweet as could be, and their little chi-weenie completely stole the show. The trees were showing off the most classic fall colors, paired with the dreamiest light all evening long. Their love was effortless to capture, and I already can’t wait to watch them say “I do” this upcoming fall.

KENDRA + TYLER ENGAGEMENT
What a bunch of cuties!! Their engagement session at the Chicago Botanic Gardens felt like something out of a dream. Between the stunning backdrops, the soft glowing light, and the whimsical atmosphere, every moment was absolutely beautiful. Truly one of those sessions that felt effortlessly magical from beginning to end. OCTOBER 2026 CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH!

THE DASHUT'S WEDDING
*coming soon!*
05.
After capturing their city engagement session, I had the honor of second shooting their wedding day as well. The day began at the timeless and historic Palmer House before leading into a beautifully lit ceremony and reception at Pazzo’s. Every part of their day felt elegant and full of love, and these two were such a joy to photograph. It’s a wedding I know I’ll never forget.
