I love doing family portraits and a little bit of chaotic fun makes for some great candids. I really enjoyed spending an hour with the Mancini family taking their portraits. Their boys have the best smiles! -Jake

A blog of our current photography work.
Buehl Family
I’ve been excited to do more photos of my sister’s family ever since they had their second child in early spring. We got together a little over a week ago at Morris Country Club. Erik is a member there so he knew the good spots to do photos and he was also our guide to make sure we didn’t get hit by golf balls. It was so great to see them and to finally take some portraits of Emma. I can’t wait to see them again at Halloween!










Norrell Family
Almost 6 years ago I photographed Anilla and Jay’s wedding and since then they’ve had me come do their family portraits several times. I swear their kids get cuter each session! Also, I love that they always get their extended family involved. They are such a wonderful family! -Jake















Abbie and Eric
Abbie and Eric had their wedding ceremony a couple of weeks ago at one of my favorite venues Salvage One. We started with a first look in the back patio and then walked around the building for portraits of the the two of them. There’s so many amazing spots around Salvage One that the hardest part about doing photos there is choosing which looks to go with. Abbie looked absolutely stunning in her dress and Eric couldn’t keep his eyes off of her! Their sweet ceremony was held outside in the garden surrounded by their immediate family and close friends (and their ring-pup!) followed by champagne and first dances. I cannot wait to party with them next year! -Jake

Gabriella and Patrick
I met up with Gabriella and Patrick the other day for some engagement portraits at one of my favorite spots, St. James Farm. It turns out we did these photos exactly one year before their wedding day! They were so easy to work with and I felt like they kept reading my mind with the poses I was wanted to do. It was wonderful spending an hour with them and getting to know them a little more. Special thanks to Gabriella’s mom who brought over their pups for some photos at the end of the session! -Jake
