Tips & Ideas

Chris and Monica are so much fun and incredibly kind….being able to meet them in Chicago for their engagement session and being their wedding photographer is such an honor to me!

We first met in downtown Chicago at Union Station trying to dodge the wind while keeping warm which we learned was quite the task. After many goosebumps later, we ventured to new locations and took warm breaks indoors. In the end, we had a blast and ended up with SO many gorgeous photos!

I love, love these two images (above and below). They both were shot on film and feel so rich.

Chris and Monica are getting married in two short months in Northern Michigan…I can hardly wait!

That Chicago skyline is a dream shot for any engagement photographer!

There is just something about lines in a photo, bringing your eyes to the gorgeous couple. This photo is perfection!
