“The Queen City Meets the Big Easy” When I was in Charlotte for Caitlin + Matt’s engagement session, it was mid-July, sunny and VERY hot. Three months later, it was a whole different experience…unseasonably cold and rainy outside. But inside the Charlotte Country Club, it was warm and cozy as they prepared to become man and wife. […]

“Amour + Miłość“ It had been just over a year since I photographed Yvonne and Greg’s engagement session, and now here they were! Taking their walk down the aisle to become Mr. and Mrs. Both come from strong ethnic communities: Yvonne’s Polish, and Greg French. I really enjoyed how they managed to blend and pay homage to […]

“Love in Queen City” I was in Charlotte visiting family for Easter when I received an email from Cailtin, asking if I remembered her from her sister Whitney’s wedding, which I had photographed a few years ago. She was recently engaged and wanted to know if I’d be willing to come back for her own […]

“Fur Babies, too!” When Yvonne and Greg asked if we could include their dogs in their downtown Chicago engagement session, I was excited! I love when couples make the session their own, adding pets or other things to the session that are significant to them. There was also champagne…

“Who You Are, Not Just What You Look Like” That’s my goal, with every business client. Cheers,  

“Best Thing I Ever Ate…” Oh what fun I had traveling to Charlotte, NC for a pre-wedding/engagement session! Because, the journey is just as important as the destination. More yumminess to come!    

“Sometimes it Rains…” So, break out the red umbrella and have fun! It’s all about being together, like these couples. Enjoy!     Whitney and Bob didn’t let a little sprinkle ruin their engagement session, we had fun with it!

“It’s All in the Family” Just a few favorites…more fun with families, kids and maternity. Enjoy!     Giggles are the best! Lovely, sophisticated…a beautiful way to show off your bump in your favorite outdoor setting.

“Three-day weekend.” Holiday weddings can be a lot of fun! A wedding over a 3-day weekend provides guests an opportunity to explore your location, take a mini-vacation… and lets you extend the celebration of one of the biggest times in your life over several days. And one of the most popular holiday weekends for weddings is Labor Day. […]
