I can't believe how fast they grow!

Jennifer & Matt... Chicago, IL

There were so many great things about spending a day with Jennifer and Matt. Most of all the laughter never
stopped... except for a few tears. Throughout the day I would over hear their friends and family mention
Jennifer's laugh... how you can pick her out of a crowd because of it, how it makes you smile when you hear it,
and how it is one of many distinguishing qualities that makes her so lovable. Their day was very non-traditional
and a perfect fit for their style. We met up with a intimate group of friends and family at The Metropolitan Tower
for their first look, then had time to wander around for a fun photography session. The ceremony and reception
took place at Between Cafe & Lounge. I have probably passed this location a million times and never realized it
was there... seriously the best food I have had in a long time. I highly recommend checking them out if you get the chance.



I love the things that happen in-between the group photography sessions.


This is what they were doing when they thought I was NOT looking:) I love their humour.

Anne & Robbin... Chicago, IL

Although the weather on their wedding day was not perfect ,their wedding was great! The day after the
wedding they left for a sunny honeymoon, came back to work for five days... and then moved to California.
Needless to say they have a lot of exciting things going on in their newlywed life:)

back in Chicago:)

Jessica & Brad... Salvage One, Chicago

Jessica and Brad are a super creative couple who did everything in a unique way for their wedding day. I was

excited when they asked if their dogs Rat and Zoro could join us for a few photographs. Jessica made both
of the dogs black ties for the event. Being creative they want to use the resources of other creatives
and ordered tons of great wedding items from different Etsy vendors. The dress, the jewelry, the hair pieces,
cufflinks... all from Etsy!

They are a family of hidden talents.... Jessica's brother and sister both made stage appearances:)
