Courtney and Mike were married on August 29th at a beautiful Church in the Northwest Suburbs and then had a fabulous and fun reception at the Brookfield Zoo. We had Five hours for picture fun, three of them exploring the zoo. It was a real treat to have so much time to get so creative, and I was lucky that Courtney and Mike wanted to go all out and get some fabulous pictures. Not to mention we had the worlds beast wedding weather, and the coolest clouds I have seen in a while! Here are a few of my favorites….enjoy!!

I had an amazing time with Dayna and Clete and their little one this summer down in the city for some urban family pictures. Both Day and Clete are wedding photographers so I was honored when they asked me to do a series of family pictures for them We explored Millennium Park and the surrounding areas. I look forward doing another session with them this fall. Here are some of my favorites, enjoy!!







I had a fabulous time with Heidi and Chris on their engagement sessions. We did a little bit of Wrigley Field as Chris is a Cubs fan and then did a few pictures at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle. A little of urban vs nature, love it! here are some of my favorites, I look forward to their wedding in October!!






I had a lot of fun exploring the city with Katie and Brian, good friends of mine. We mixed things up and stopped at every stadium that I know of in Chicago, and illegally parked a few times too, lol! Needless to say Katie and Brian are sports fans. My favorites for sure were Solider Field and Millennium Park. We had lots of fun, and lots of silly laughter. I am very much looking forward to their Destination wedding in Jamaica next April.
