Another successful shoot at the Naperville River Walk in Naperville, IL!  This time I had the pleasure of working with Kelly and J.R, a couple who’s wedding I’ll be shooting in October. Even though it was 15°F in the dead of winter, they were troopers!  I was all bundled up and they didn’t even need ear protection!  During warmer days, navigating around the crowds of people can be a challenge for a photo shoot but during this December day, we had the whole area to ourselves.  Silent, crisp, beautiful, and refreshing. 

Did some fun head shots for Strauss Realty, a small commercial real estate firm headquartered on Chicago’s northwest side.  The team members I worked with had some awesome energy going on :)  It was a pleasure working with them.

We jam packed multiple locations for stunning outdoor scenes and am thankful for Amanda and Matt’s endurance and enthusiasm!  The weather was ideal, conditions almost perfect and I couldn’t have asked for better circumstances as a wedding photographer.  It didn’t hurt that their constant smiles and laughs were contagious.  Thanks Amanda and Matt for having me a part of your special day!

A unique venue for a unique couple!  Emma and Adam decided to celebrate with close family and friends at an intimate and charming converted old Chicago firehouse.  From the flowers to the food, this wedding comes close to topping them all :)  Location:  FireHouse Chicago

From Bari Foods to Family photos, the Pedota’s has always been a source of inspiration!  Thanks for having me in your life :)  Location: Catigny Park
