The way that I adored this wedding!!! Sam and Michael found me on Instagram and trusted me with photographing their wedding and engagement photos in two different cities that I’m not familiar with. Both exceeded my expectations ten fold! They did their engagement session in the north suburbs of Chicago (peep their engagement blog here!) […]

The only word to describe this wedding is: STUNNING! Everything about this day was beautiful. The couple, the florals, the design, the venue, the dress. It. Was. Spectacular! I love how they leaned into the color blue for their florals and how they dressed the venue with colorful flowers coming in from the ceiling over their dance floor. Cassandra and Vinni also couldn’t have been more kind and laid back. What a dream, right?! My associate Malorie did such a beautiful job capturing their day. Enjoy!

This “girly fall” inspired late-October wedding day felt like I was transported to summer! Bride Nicole’s goal was using a lot of pink with pops of fall colors for her floral, pearls, lace, and opulence. This day was a timeless vision! Some of my highlights of the day included the first look with the bridesmaids AND groomsmen, the florals and table chargers, the emotion and love between Nicole and Christian and their love for their people, and the final photos of the night in the courtyard! Enjoy taking a glimpse into this beautiful day!
