Most days you'll find me sitting at my kitchen counter, clad in a mix of J.Crew and Zara (in neutral colors, of course), pouring my heart into this business of mine while dancing along to my latest Spotify playlist and sipping on a cup of hot tea. I'm an award-winning, published wedding photographer that is obsessed with all things classic and elegant. I'm a former California girl, but a true Midwesterner at heart. I love warm hugs, live music and getting texts from my brides that they cried when they saw their wedding photos!! I live for mornings on my yoga mat and green juice after. Among friends, I'm known for never missing an episode of The Bachelor on Monday nights, overusing exclamation points, and disliking coffee (but loving coffee shops)!
CLASSIC PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE NATURALLY ELEGANT BRIDE
Kristina & Pat’s maternity session is on the blog today & I’m so excited for you guys to see this post! I photographed Kristina & Pat’s engagement photos, their wedding in 2018 & now their Detroit maternity photos ahead of their little girl being born in a few weeks!
I’m so excited to finally share Lani & Jason’s Chicago engagement session today! We met up at the Chicago Lakeshore the day before New Year’s Eve last year to capture these two & their love!!! It was THE most windy I’ve ever seen it by the water and so, so cold, but these two didn’t let the temperature phase them!
I had such a blast with Ashley & Troy for their Shinola Hotel engagement session! We met up in downtown Detroit for some of my favorite shots of the session on the city streets of Detroit with the iconic Shinola Hotel in the background before heading up to the best rooftop spot in the city to catch sunset!!!
I met up with Isabella & Jack on the most perfect fall day in Bloomington, Indiana for their Indiana University engagement session. IU is where Isabella & Jack first met & fell in love, so when they asked if I’d be willing to travel down there to capture their engagement photos in a place that was so special to them, I immediately said yes!
I met up with Kim & Steve recently for their engagement session in downtown Northville, the same place where Steve proposed a few months prior!! Kim is my cousin/friend/go to travel partner and I was so excited to capture her & Steve in front of my camera!!!
Soco & CJ had one heck of a wedding celebration at the end of December as they became husband and wife! They planned a super fun party for their guests, complete with CJ’s grandpa playing guitar and singing Elvis songs & oldies while his sister accompanied him on violin, as well as a full Mexican band that played for their guests in between the DJ spinning tunes!
