Megen and Tommy's Wedding

We've been a bit behind on posts lately, as we settle into our new home -  BIG MOVE - a whole mile and a half down the road from where we were!  We are loving it, and have launched full-force into the thick of Wedding Season! We thought we'd share this amazing wedding with you on this Monday morning, because this bride's smile will surely brighten your day.  Megen and Tommy were simply a joy to work with.  From their stunning and impeccable style, down to every last perfect hand-crafted detail, their wedding at City View Loft was amazing from start to finish.  These two had a dream team of vendors working to pull their big day together, including Kate from Chicago Vintage Weddings,  incredible florals by Pistil and Vine and catering from Bub City -- the end result was a wedding you will not soon forget!  We were thrilled to have Ryan Timm along to second-shoot on this wedding and love what he came away with.

Please enjoy a few of our favorite shots from their day, leave Megen and Tommy some LOVE and make sure to check out their feature in The Splash!

Elizabeth and Matt's Engagement Session

Elizabeth and Matt are such a great couple.  It was a joy getting to know them, and Maggie their beautiful Golden Retriever, during their Engagement Session last month!  I loved that they chose to do their session at an alley by Green Street Smoked Meats,  on the Kinzie Street bridge and in the Mary Bartleme Park!  These locations turned out great and we had a fantastic time! I'm so glad we had a chance to do these photos right before I shot their wedding a few weeks ago!

Here are a few of our favorite images from their shoot:

Baby Eden

We love watching our client's families grow!  These two wonderful people asked us to photograph their wedding a few years back and when they welcomed their beautiful daughter, Eden, to the world, they invited us to their home to capture some images of this precious time in their life. Little Eden is simply beautiful, and were honored to be able to spend time with Ben and Anna's sweet family.

These moments are gone all too quickly...

Kilene and Alex's Elopement

There was still snow on the ground as Chicago clung to the last of winter, but it was steamy and warm inside Lincoln Park's Conservatory during Kilene and Alex's elopement! These two have the sweetest love-story and we were so honored to be there as they exchanged vows in front of their families.

Please enjoy a few of our favorite images from their day:
