I still remember sitting across from my friend when she asked me to photograph her wedding.  Complete shock and excitement filled my gut. And a LOT of doubts.  

You see, I wasn’t a photography major in college or anything (I studied computer science, for goodness’ sake) - I had done a few family and senior sessions over the past year and built a mini portfolio for my brand new business.  And suddenly - BAM! I was faced with the decision - do I want to jump into wedding photography?? Can I even do it?

Good morning, afternoon, or evening to you guys!!! I’m back with another summer wedding in Illinois today! I met Abby through college and got to know the both of them throughout this wedding process - and they are such great, talented people.

I have been waiting so, so patiently to share this INCREDIBLE wedding with you all!!! Not only was it one of the most GORGEOUS weddings I have photographed, but it also was the celebration of marriage between two of the best people EVER - Riley and Alissa :) Riley and Hank (my husband) have been best friends since college, so we’ve known both of them for a while now and love them dearly :)

Hey there, everyone! I hope you are having an AWESOME fall!!! As I catch up with blogging, I got to look over the photos again from Karri and Mack’s summer wedding and fell in love all over again! I’m pretty sure I’m blessed with the most calm, kind couples of ALL time - and these two were no exception :)

Happy Tuesday (or whatever day it may be when you read this!!!) I am back with another summer wedding, and this has to be one of my FAVORITES! I met Eunice back in college band, and she is without a doubt one of the sweetest people I have met in my life. When she reached out to me about photographing her wedding, I was SO EXCITED!!!! And once I met Isaiah, also one of the kindest people I have met, I knew that these two were such a good match :)

Hey there, everyone!!!! I’m so glad to be back after a little break and share some AMAZING weddings from this year! Up first is Kyle and April’s wedding in Monee/Tinley Park :)

I know Kyle and April through my husband, as Kyle and him were good friends in college. When they reached out for me to photograph there day, I KNEW I had to say yes. These two are so sweet and kind and easygoing, and each part of their day reflected that.
