Whew! What a busy week!! Aside from the exciting news I shared the other day, we just found out that we’re moving… and moving FAST! We found someone to sublease our place, which is awesome, but they wanted in right away. We have had about 2 days to pack away our lives and now are about to head out of town to my family’s for the holidays! After the holidays, we’re heading to Minneapolis for the Bears/Vikings outside game :) And then? After all that? We come back and the next morning do our move in one day! It’ll be a crazy week, but I’m sooo so excited!!!

Another thing I’m super excited about? Liz + John’s wedding this next August!! Seriously, where do I even begin with these two. When I first met Liz, I immediately knew she was my kind of people. She’s super sweet and oh-s0-hilarious! I just love her. Then when I met John (aka: Juicy J), I just knew both of them were perfect! They’re the sweetest pair together and never stop laughing – even if it’s about pickles!

Liz + John absolutely love the AI and wanted to begin our journey there! We explored the inside, checking out all of their favorite paintings, then ventured out to Grant Park to finish their love-filled session! I’m not sure what my favorite part of this day was – the pickle jokes, the selfie sticks, or how cute they are!! Love you guys! Almost 8 months until the big day <3

    Ahh! These are beautiful! Liz is such a beautiful soul — I am so happy she has found her mate!

  2. […] amount of love I have for these two is seriously unreal!! They’re one of the most loving, genuine, and seriously funny couples […]

  3. […] Art Institute of Chicago’s gardens. My favorite part of the day, of course other than seeing these two beautiful souls, was walking around the city on a Wednesday evening and seeing everyone look and yell to […]

With an eye for detail and a heart for connection, I specialize in refined and intentional portraits. From families and newborns to engagements and milestones, my work is guided by emotional storytelling — capturing honest moments and meaningful connection through luminous, editorial imagery. I value natural light and thoughtful composition, creating photographs that feel artful, elevated, and deeply personal.
