I don’t know how it is that I luck out with THE sweetest brides humanly possible – but I do. And I love it. Kelsey is the nicest of the nice and the sweetest of the sweet and by the looks of things, Adam agrees and just loves her to pieces. I was over the […]

This just so happens to be one of my favorite engagement sessions of all time. These two are dear friends of my dear friends which makes them automatically come with a pre-made seal of approval before we even met. It’s fair to say they’re in love and that they’re darling and that their autumnal wedding […]

Loved when Jake and Kylie’s sweet nephew decided he needed to hold his “girlfriend’s” hand one more time before she got married! 🙂 Smiles and joy, the most beautiful weather and the most beautiful couple made this wedding one to remember.  Kylie was the sweetest, most laid back bride possible – though her day was flawless […]

Precious baby girl number three in this sweet little family. I’ve been able to take all of these girls newborn pictures and  I can safely say that they were all just about the easiest sleepiest babies I’ve ever photographed. Maggie, you have two very wonderful sisters to show you the ropes 🙂

It is SUCH an honor to photograph other photographers…and especially those as sweet and talented as these guys. We were able to meander around the ever-lovely grounds of Luthy, one of Julia’s favorite spots, discussing the merits of Russian sage and that magic fluffy tree 🙂 And are their kids darling or what?? Thanks for […]

I think these two might just have to win the award for “together” the longest – they’ve been friends/dating since they were tiny little blondies in kindergarden! You’d think after all that time a couple would just be nonchalant about their wedding day, but not these two! SO much happy and excitement filled this beautiful […]

This wedding (almost elopement) goes down as the smallest ceremony I’ve been a part of in 9 years and I absolutely loved that! Ben and Katharyn were married by a dear family friend in front of a beautiful old barn at Sommer Park in Peoria, and attended by their parents.  The location couldn’t have been […]
